1. Trump did nothing to negotiate a halt to fighting or a withdrawal of Russian troops from Donbas for four years.So you think comparative containment is greater now than during Trump's term? Remember, we have DATA. Right here in this very thread. Kim is demonstrably LESS contained as indicated by data/metrics. Similarly, Putin considers himself freed up to march on his neighbor...unlike before.
Any thoughts on this?
2. Trump repeatedly spoke out against Nato and some of his own advisors feared he'd withdraw. Why wouldn't Putin think if Trump were given four more years that his take over of Ukraine would be so much easier?
3. Why is it that Nato responded with such unity against the invasion? Would it have happened if Trump were still president? Hell no.
