“[The Biden administration is making a colossal mistake in thinking that it can protract the war in Ukraine, bleed Russia dry, topple Putin and signal to China to keep its hands off Taiwan.” https://t.co/eIIwyQOdW6

“It would indeed be wonderful if the combination of attrition in Ukraine and a sanctions-induced financial crisis at home led to Putin’s downfall. Take that, China!”

CLARIFYING: “I conclude that the U.S. intends to keep this war going….’the U.K.’s No. 1 option is for the conflict to be extended and thereby bleed Putin.’ …It helps explain [the] lack of any diplomatic effort by the U.S. to secure a cease-fire.” https://t.co/eIIwyQOdW6

You talking about this? https://t.co/6Owa1KWkmF Odd, hollow piece. Most Americans want Ukraine to win. But 1) Should we fear nuclear war? No, because Putin “wants us to be afraid.” Easy! 2) How to win? She punts that to “those who best understand diplomacy and military strategy.” https://t.co/76R2Hf66m0

Maybe this case could be made, but not in this embarrassing article. “Numerous experts” say Putin was “emboldened by the Trump years.” Doesn’t answer why he waited for Biden. “Experts” cited are: Yovanovitch, Hill, Daalder, Schiff and Kinzinger! https://t.co/m56aPBUMyN

My new theory: Dems failed to set priorities in part because BBB was driven by internal Dem activists, not voters. Biden couldn’t say “Sorry, Program X supporters, voters seem to want Program Y more.” Voters weren’t demanding Program Y either. They weren’t demanding any of it. https://t.co/jlVCwAqMTA
