Many of my progressive comrades are terrified President Biden will lose reelection to Trump or other regressive Republican. So am I.
And rightly so. Biden narrowly defeated traitor Trump in '20 by clawing back 5 swing states Trump won in '16. The GOP nominee has a good shot at keeping the 25 states Trump won and clawing back those 5 precious states to retake the White House.
What not to do? For starters, close ranks behind Biden's foreign policy, the worst foreign policy their lifetime. Progressives can't brook any opposition to Biden's provoking nuclear confrontation at opposite ends of the globe with Russia and China simultaneously. That is not progressive, it's self-destructive.
While the possible confrontation with China over Taiwan is simmering, the US proxy war against Russia is on the big front burner and may boil over into mushroom clouds every day this failed war continues.
How failed? For the US homeland, $137 billion in treasure is gone, with the total likely to reach half a trillion bucks if the war ends today. Fageddabout that. Crazed US war planners led by Biden are planning for a multiyear war to topple Russia, making it our next trillion dollar plus war.
How failed? Ukraine has ceased to be a functioning country, kept on life support by the US/NATO and a couple others. 80% of the world's 195 nations are either neutral or supporting Russia, in part to degrade US worldwide hegemony.
How failed? Upwards of 400,000 Ukrainians have died, almost as many as all US WWII deaths. US deaths? Zero. That is grotesque…and mostly on Biden.
What about the new Hitler, Putin? Had Biden implemented Minsk II and proclaimed "No NATO for Ukraine", Putin would not have invaded. But Biden, Congressional Democrats and their sycophantic media, airbrushed that preface out of the US narrative, making the Russian invasion virtually inevitable.
What my progressive comrades appear to dismiss in their unwavering support for a monstrous foreign policy, is that public opinion is turning against US weaponing this war in perpetuity. If they would join us peaceniks in demanding an end to weapons and promoting a negotiated settlement, President Joe just might get the message. Biden promoting a negotiated settlement is not only the correct thing to do to keep Ukraine from completely collapsing while it builds more cemeteries, it will help him stay in the White House for another 4 years.
Come on my progressive comrades. Join the peace movement for Ukraine and send a message to President Biden that just might get him reelected. Maybe even a Nobel Peace Prize.
