real talk, i’m a bit concerned that if trump wins and abandons ukraine, forcing them to surrender, then the empire will go all in 100% on Iran instead of having its attention and resources split.
Good thing this isn’t a democracy so there’s nothing I can do about it either way, absolved of any responsibility to chose a “lesser evil” or “reduce harm” is a great mental relief. I think radlibs who do utilitarian calculus all day to try and max their altruism levels and really believe in it are in their own self constructed hell, spinning wheels in circles that don’t connect to anything
B2s are actually in Australia, so pretty damn far away. They just have very long range when combined with refuel tankers.
I think you’re right about the west already starting to abandon Ukraine. I think it will happen faster under Trump though, whereas a Democrat will really drag it out over like 2 years and it will be messy.

america is already kind of starting to abandon ukraine to focus on west asia. The empire deploying THAAD and B2s to the middle east is a bad omen
