where is the Russians T-14 Armata and Su-57? they are supposed to have them in the hundreds or may i say, the thousands. Russia has about 20 or tanks and the Su-57 has about 4. on paper, the tanks and plane are awe inspiring. but the actuality is that they are junk when they work. so they use what they got, before 1991 tanks and planes tech. when Russia first invaded Ukraine, i thought that would take 3 or 4 days to take Kiev. but the Ukrainians stopped the Russian advance on Kiev by using Territorial Defense or what we call the National Guard or Weekend Warriors. the elite Russian VDV vs Ukrainian Weekend Warriors. the Russian VDV was supposed to take Hostomel Airport and then troop planes were supposed to come in. instead, Ukrainian Weekend Warriors screwed up the Russkies' plan. not only did the Ukrainians screwed the VDV, the screwed the Russian tank battalions coming south to take Kiev. the VDV lost 50% of their men, the Russian tanks and armored troops carriers numbered in 100's of destroyed vehicles. yet the Ukrainians stand 1 1/2 later, taking back their territory with Western and Russian 1990s weapons tech.

Trump, may he get back the Presidency, is not going to give up Ukrainian support. he will take money given to Ukraine, but not the weapons.

Putin is the new Stalin/Mao/Hitler. what Putin says and does are Stalin/Mao/Hitler own actions. all Russia needs now is the gulags. oh, wait a minute....the Russians don't have to, minority Muslims, Jews, Oriental and whatever else Russians are going to Ukraine, not true Moscow to St Petersburg Russians.
When you're proven wrong will you admit it?
