Just to prove my point on how cynical and political this Whitehouse crew is. Newest Biden Adv.

What a disgraceful, disgusting ad.

The real polls must be really bad if they feel the need to go this negative this early.

Sliming Trump with Racism. Obviously aimed to motivate the female and Black Vote.

My 2 cents… perhaps it’s too cynical or political, but with this Whitehouse crew, I don’t think that’s possible.

All the Biden Administration cares about in Ukraine is delaying a disaster until after Election Day, or laying the blame on the Republicans.

The big question is can Ukraine survive another 8 months?

The muddy season, rasputitsa, is coming, so that should slow down the war for 3-8 weeks.

And then October / November is the most rainy season.

The Russian advance is slow, but steady. Western / NATO ISR means mass formations are just huge targets. So advances are done with massive fire power and small units, while doing aggressive attrition to Ukraine units.

With logistic issues, the key question is how fast can the Russians safely advance keeping resupplied, while keeping a low casualty rate.

With the self decapitation of the Ukrainian armed forces, replacing them with Zelensky loyalists the danger of a coup seems reduced.

The U.S., France, and U.K have the view that Russia can’t be allowed to win. And Europe is doing their utmost to support Ukraine, but their armories are empty.

My guess is they will ratchet up the economic war, more attacks within Russia, more seaborne attacks on Russian ships (only thing positive for Ukraine), and more wonder Weapons to Ukraine. And hope General mud slows the Russian advance through Election Day.

Gaza is a drain of U.S. resources that would be going to Ukraine.

And what of Haiti? It’s a situation begging for a U.S. intervention.
