Both Trump and Musk are volatile, unpredictable and sensitive characters

We’re not even into a Trump presidency yet and already Trump is joking that he can’t get rid of Musk

It doesn’t bode well for their friendship

This is Russia’s way of reminding the West

Russia’s ballistic missiles can travels thousands of km and carry a nuclear warhead

Obviously this one didn’t but after all of his nuclear sabre rattling..

..What is Putin once again trying to show

Lol, good because I can argue about it all day

We are getting into specific linguistics here

I suggest you look up the definition of preference and intention

Would be helpful to know if you think it’s possible that someone can express choice without planning too
November 19, 2024 at 12:52 PM
I disagree, I think it’s reactive with a preference for no victory or loss

Biden is not on the offensive here. He’s reacting to the requests of Zelenskyy and the threats of Putin

A plan is giving too much credit. It implies direction. Have you seen any? I haven’t unfortunately
November 19, 2024 at 12:45 PM
I thought you were more concerned about about his intentions? Glad that’s cleared it up

There are other statements to suggest that Biden doesn’t want a win or a loss. We could go into detail if that’s your new concern
November 19, 2024 at 12:39 PM
I think you’ve misunderstood the difference between proving a preference and proving an intention

On the former, the statement that he has no plan is perfectly applicable

On your incorrect interpretation it is not
November 19, 2024 at 12:31 PM
The screenshot shows your interpretation of the sentence and nothing more

His actions have proven that he doesn’t want a win or a loss. I never said intention. You placed that word in yourself I’m afraid
November 19, 2024 at 12:22 PM
Intentions and preferences are different things

As the screenshot shows, I said he’d proven that he couldn’t stick to a win or a loss

So I don’t think he had a plan
November 19, 2024 at 11:23 AM
I don’t know if he ever had a plan to be honest. The whole thing feels very reactive

I will take a guess here

Ukraine will say that they targeted a military unit that was used to target troops in Kursk

Biden will probably still ok that if it’s Kursk related
November 19, 2024 at 10:49 AM
I don’t expect him to come out and say that he doesn’t want a win or a loss

Rather, a half measure is an action not forceful enough to warrant a decisive result

Which is exactly what has been happening
November 19, 2024 at 10:46 AM
As usual, there is a typically Biden-esque half measure caveat hidden in the terms and conditions

….Only in Kursk

Biden has proven that while he does not want Ukraine to lose, he does not want it win either

Meloni has not been as disruptive on the world stage as many predicted. Even Boris Johnson was criticised by Trump for having so called socialist policies in 2020

Rather, the terms we use to identify far right are changing
