So...Russia is going to be guaranteed far more economic sanctions if they invade Ukraine.
Plus, Ukraine will be no military pushover AND if NATO intervenes - Russia will lose.
Then I guess Ukraine must REALLY be a worthwhile country for Russia to takeover?
Well...
1) for years it has run a negative trade deficit.

And - outside of the Covid Depression - they have run well over 8% inflation for over 5 years.

Oh yeah...Ukraine is one HONEY of a country.
No wonder Putin would be willing to risk his entire political career/legacy to invade it.
NOT!!!
Not only has the Biden administration provided ZERO unbiased, factual proof that Russia intends to invade Ukraine?
Russia has NOTHING to gain and LOTS to lose by doing so.
This 'Russia about to invade Ukraine' story is absolute nonsense.
And if you are an adult and you truly believe the utter, baseless bullshit that Biden/neocons are putting out on this?
You are so beyond gullible that a new word for how much of a sap you are needs to be invented.
Once again...I despise both parties.
