Default Re: Russia v Ukraine

Was actually pondering what would have happened if Trump was POTUS. On the surface, Trump seemed to be antiwar, and more of a deal maker. Maybe Putin would have got what he wanted without firing a shot, maybe Zelensky would be retired in Miami living it up, maybe no civilians would have died, and maybe the global public would have been none the wiser with WTF just happened.

Look at how Trump's administration agreed to the Taliban prisoners release, and now one of them is the PM in the Taliban government Its fascinating how all this **** plays out in the background.

Depends how this turns out in the end. I can't see Russia admitting defeat. And so, feeding weapons to an undersized army, and not actually getting involved, is probably the worse thing they could have done for the Ukrainian people. It's looking like it could be death by a thousand cuts. Putin might still get what he was after, but with a lot more deaths and destruction.

But no worries, check out the share price of Lockheed, Raytheon, BAE Systems, Northrop since February.
