Fine. Never mind the # of days. You are sure he will stop it. Since you are sure, you must know how.

How?

Everyone knows what he will do. He will present a 'plan' which will essentially redraw the borders to status quo. (Needless to say, Ukraine will refuse. And this land grab in Kursk is part of the jockeying for the advent of such a day).

Then he will blame Ukraine for instransigence, and say we cannot afford to give them $billions. (Nvm that those $billions are almost entirely spent on US defense companies.) He will stop military aid.

Then, he will blame the NATO countries for criticism etc and say we have enough problems at home. And his followers: who have very genuine grievances of class, economic strife from NAFTA, outsourcing, great recession, rapid cultural changes etc, will believe him because they see him as an embodiment of everything the establishment isn't.

We are entering into a period of populist isolationism like the 1930s, which also followed a battered economic decade. Hopefully, we will not have to suffer a Pearl Harbor to realize that, like it or not, we have to engage with the world, and if not, it will engage with us one day, to our disadvantage.

Most of us know what he will do if elected. He will make life better for Americans. Improve our national security and restore order in the world with peace through strength. Unfortunately, there are many who are too stupid to vote for that and prefer the high inflation, high energy costs, porous border leading to crime and drugs as well as a unstable dangerous world due to the feckless, weak pathetic old man currently in office. All of which Kamala Harris will continue if elected. Creating a very dangerous world situation. She can't talk to the media without sounding like an idiot, let alone stand up to Iran, Putin or Xi.

So, by this logic, we should totally stop with a nuclear deterrence against Russia because it has never nuked us?

Its pointless to engage with this stupidity,so let me make a related, more worthwhile point.

Yahya Sinwar, the mastermind behind the Hamas attacks, has said that Hamas did what it did because it felt completely overlooked by events in the area.

I am a strong supporter of Israel. I find the protests by students misguided and ill-informed.

But there is a legitimate side to Sinwar's accusation. The regime in Israel is the most right wing in its history. Ministers in the cabinet have called for slaughtering pigs near Al-Aksa. Right wing settlers terrorize residents in the West Bank and take their land. And their dippoop PM clings to power to avoid prosecution for corruption.

Regime after regime in the US has trodden gingerly. From Carter, to Reagan, to Clinton, to Bush: all have pushed diplomacy.

What did Trump do?

He promoted accords in the area, with one exception. He said a big (frank) you to the Palestinians. He did what successive governments had steadfastly avoided doing: move the US embassy to Jerusalem. It was utterly and completely unnecessary. Why did he do it?

To please a donor: a nutjob casino owner who made billions in Macau with Chinese approval and encouragement and his lunatic wife, who promised him the money if he would do it. Yes, he sold decades of Mid East diplomacy and bridge-building because of the $ received from a donor for his campaign.

So, yeah: he was very successful in promoting world peace. But October 7 didnt happen on his watch, so by your logic, he is blameless.

Moving the embassy was the correct move. It has been an extraordinary success. Your logic is badly flawed. How in the world a position of peace through strength indicated that the nuclear deterrence should be removed is mind boggling. The Hamas attack on Israel happened for one reason. The Biden administration enriched Iran and gave them the financial ability to finance it. They adopted the ridiculous policy of appeasement to Iran rather than the policies of the Trump administration that kept Iran incapable of bankrolling and supporting any such attack. Biden and his administration has blood on their hands.

For some reason you think the balance of whether he will be successful in ending the war, rests on me knowing how he will do it. That's not very intelligent on your part. Not unexpected from you though.

Was it the 14-1 Security Council resolution against the US de facto recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital? With terrorist countries like Britain, France, Italy and Japan condemning it?

The Biden release of funds to Iran resulting in Hamas arracks is the usual nonsensical common sense defying stuff you find in right wing sources that you lift stuff from almost verbatim. The Hamas operation was not expensive at all. Iran has been funding operations abroad that cost hundreds of millions more for the longest time long, long, long before any funds from the US.

And for god's sake, stop spouting lobotomized staggeringly banal cliches like "peace through strength."🤣

No. Not the balance of such world events. The balance of the reason for your faith.

But you explained it already beautifully. No wars were declared by him during his regime. Thus, he will end the ones he inherited around the world.

The UN? LOL, yea who cares. The US is the UN and we fund it. Actually it was the Jerusalem Embassy Act passed overwhelmingly by Congress in 1995.

Thousands of rockets were fired into Israel and continue to be fired as Iran supplies weapons to terrorists from money provided to them by the Biden Administration. None of which happened during the Trump administration. They weren't capable of it due to the Trump administration policies

You can live in your fantasy world and pretend that history does not exist. Again, your requirement that I need to know how he is going to do it, is unintelligent.

You shouldn't publish a paper. There are already plenty of liberal rags available for you to get your indoctrination from.

We fund 27%. The countries that critiqued it provide 3 times as much. 😃

There were plenty of rockets fired into Israel provided by Iran during Trump's time. The escalation is due to the war, the origin of which we are talking about.

Is a cliche a policy? I wasnt aware. I think what the US should do is simply abolish all details. Like cavemen, we should go into negotiations, exchanges, speeches with one word,: MAGA.

It will completely destroy our enemies.

Without the US funding, the UN wouldn't exist. Not to mention that Trump was the guy who made other countries pay what they were supposed to pay.

There was never an attack that killed thousands of Israeli's, which in terms of population, dwarfs our 9/11. We are talking about the totality of the Hamas attacks since Oct 7th. Which was made possible by the Biden administration. Both in terms of the financial support they have given Iran. As well as emboldening them due to being weak and feckless.

It's a successful policy and doctrine that dates back to the days of George Washington. When the US is strong, which is currently is not due to the current regime. The world is a safer place and our national security is improved.


If you can't do any better than that, I don't see a reason to continue this discussion. You don't live in reality, you're uninformed and you ignore history. I know where this is heading.

No, actually again, you failed miserably. Now you're descending into childishness as you always do. When faced with superior knowledge.

The evidence of history is well established that justifies the belief. As a far left liberal nutcase, you will ignore it.

Wanted to bring this up as a bit of a positive note on Drysdale because frankly I thought he was injury prone as well but apparently that isnt the case. Like many I kind of just looked at the Games played and assumed but he's actually only missed a lot of time to injury over the last 2 seasons.

Looking at his stats he seemed to look like he missed time in 2020-21 however this was due to COVID shutting down the OHL. He joined the AHL team late in the season for 14 games and then joined the Ducks in mid March for the rest of the season. He missed no time due to injury.

in 2021-22 He played 81 games

In 2022-23 He had that shoulder injury that cost him pretty much the entire season.

In 2023-24 He held out on his contract and missed training Camp this is when and likely why he got that sports hernia injury. He came back after being traded and did get hurt again by taking a big hit which seemed to have hurt his shoulder, same one that was previously hurt.

So all things considered he isnt actually injury prone, although that Shoulder does give some reason for concern, it is possible due to the original injury it may never be the same.

But like I said some positive on the Drysdale Situation.

First of all, thanks for the hockey talk. Drysdale has missed major chunks of games the last two seasons. Until he gets past that and shows that he can stay healthy. He will have the label of being injury prone.
