Trump calling Zelensky a dictator. Ukraine has martial law under a law passed before he became president. He is making unreasonable demands such half the country’s mineral deposits in “payment” for support to date; the value being far higher than the aid given.
I really don’t know how this is going to end but I fear for Ukraine, and consequently Europe. |  | | |  |

No. Zelenski was elected for a five year term in 2019. Their constitution (from what I’ve read) allows him to remain while the country is under martial law. |
I read that it is subject to review and renewal by the Verkhovna Rada (Ukraine Parliament) every 90 days. |  | | |

Scaremongering? I hope so.
But look at the evidence.
Gaza land grab. Parroting kremlin minsinformation. Primary interest in Ukraine is minerals. Also threatening Greenland and Canada. Both of which also have significant mineral reserves. | | | |

Trump is creating an Orwellian dystopia. What was a great fiction in 1984 and Animal Farm, now seems to be chillingly similar to what is happening. The creation of "alternative reality" by Trump to quite literally proclaim the opposite of what has really happened as the truth is something I thought wouldn't happen again after the lessons of history and in particular WW2. Where is America headed? It is really quite terrifying.
The America of The Handmaid's Tale now appears to be getting closer.
I've been on this earth for 63 years, and have never seen anything like what is now happening. The "western world" of UK, Europe, Canada, Aus/NZ, Japan (and maybe India) need to really get together and gear up for a world where the US is a foe rather than an ally. |  |

Europe needs to arm. |
to what end ? EU IS going to take on Russia in a war ? that can only end nuclear - if it needs to arm as a deterant then what is the point of NATO ? Do you honestly think Putin will look to invade Spain next or France ?
Also do we know what percentage of Ukraine wants to be part of Russia ? what percentage of Ukraine speaks Russian - and what about the 1000 year history of Ukraine ? European is it ? I tell you what why doesnt Russia seek to make California part of Russia - stick its troops in there (im sure 80% of the population want that anyway - they're all Marxists) - see how the U.S responds to that ? so why poke the bear by having Nato / EU in Ukraine ? simply stupid idea | | | |

To defend ourselves and each other from authoritarian agression. Whether from Russia backed by the US or frankly, the US itself.
You have defelected from the point by talking about something else. And then running russian propaganda. We do know that the majority in Ukraine want to retain freedom and democracy, support their leader, and indeed voted for him. You also seem to have an entirely Putinesque understanding of Ukraine. Stop peddling this nonsense. [Post edited 20 Feb 8:41]

Indeed. A swift google will find you a 2001 census putting the number at about 29%.
Higher proportions in the areas currently being fought in. | | | |

My cousin who is half-Brit half-American and lives in a state Trump won heavily is furious (he's not the only one); so you've already got roughly half the population like him mightily pissed off. When the penny drops with MAGA supporters as they get poorer and finally run out of other people to blame I think things could get really ugly over there. So many of the population own guns (I believe it's half the households have some sort of firearm in them) and there now seems to be a push by anti-MAGA people to arm themselves. I think it could end up more like the film Civil War (about a third-term President clinging onto power). [Post edited 20 Feb 10:28]

It's impressive that you managed to stuff so many wrong things into only a few sentences.

This is interesting and disturbing in equal measure but it's better than just freaking out at the bizarre goings on of the last month.
It's a long watch and difficult to watch, but it's nevertheless another piece of the jigsaw I'm using in my efforts to make some sense of what's happened to the world since January 20th.

Only in a Tom Clancy novel would a Russian sleeper be elected to POTAS and help the Kremlin take over the world. So it can't possibly be true. Besides, Trump looks more like a Bond villain. BTW I'm claiming the mineral rites for when 2024 YR4 hits the earth in 2032. | | | |

His threats at Greenland and now at Ukraine, with a view to securing mineral wealth, really ought to put us on a serious war footing not in respect of Europe but in respect of the US.
Imagine a giant Nazi ideology driven US war machine collecting mineral rights world over. With the tacit support of Russia.
Because Musk and Trump seem to be thinking that.... |
I think this mineral grab is actually deflection. He wants to normalise relations with Russia to open that market for him and his cronies. It's Russia that want the mineral wealth and this will be a bargaining chip in the Trump / Putin talks. [Post edited 20 Feb 13:18]
