    VP guyliner says that the US administration is now facing the question of how to help Russia and Ukraine “find some middle ground here”

    It’s that “middle ground” where Russia gets half of Ukraine’s territory and the US gets all of their mineral rights?

      Molotov and Ribbentrop nod in approval.

    I still don’t get why the media is covering this guy and his questionable statements. I’m starting to think the media is somewhat complicit in shaping the new world order dystopia.

    I’m tempted to comment his statement with “yes, captain Obvious”.

    It could have only ended if they had: a) not obstructed Biden, b) fully backed the measures Biden took, c) continued with measures of their own of equal weight, and d) threatened to double down with more measures really soon.

    Instead, they set up their “art of the deal” clown and pony show (where an angry clown fails to jump over a beaten down pony).

    So far, Putin has taken it as confirmation and encouragement. If they grow up super fast (yea, sure they will…) this might still be possible to change.

    But realistically, I think they won’t grow up - this is more likely just a brief flash of partial sanity. At this stage, other people will have to do the job while the US provides a steady supply of tragic humor.

      This is not about growing up. They’re Putin’s stooges and when he says jump, they ask how high. Growing up won’t change that.

    Vance also states, “It hasn’t been 24 hours yet. I mean, the President is a busy guy. He only works on this a minute here, a minute there.” /s

    Edit: forgot the /s

    This war could have been ended a few years ago had Europe/US the balls, but unfortunately.

    Sometimes the only way to fuck a couch is to give half the couch away to somebody else to fuck, sometimes it is a long road to getting to fuck your couch.

    Einstein was right, time really is relative, when 24 hours suddenly becomes 4 months and counting.

    Oh, damn. He’s going against Trump’s statements here, so Trump is certainly asking someone to google how he can fire the VP.

    Could lead for some funny interactions soon
