Russia is so fucking fucked. Unbelievable.

I wish, but the US still hasn’t sent Ukraine the much needed 60bn package due to political fighting, which is already affecting the forces on the ground. And if the orange buffoon becomes president again, it will only get worst.

Unfortunately Russia has the means to keep this going and make it worse for the Ukrainians, while Ukraine is entirely dependent on US and EU support (with the EU lagging behind).

Biden is not a saint, but I really hope he wins and grabs a majority needed to support Ukraine in the next few years, otherwise we risk Russia getting in a much better position, and the West losing all credibility.

Russia managed to subvert one of the major political parties in the US to do their bidding, so there are at least some things they're good at.

And if they get Le Pen and AfD into power in Europe, European aid may be cut back as well.
