Abuser mentality - since we are weak and being hurt, we should stop fighting back because we're just making it harder on ourselves.
Russians really do not understand that their actions and words don't match - they think they're being perfectly consistent. Their peace is our surrender.

A simple question you need to ask everyone confused about whether Russians maybe “want peace” with Ukraine: why does Russia KEEP committing atrocities against Ukrainians then?
Surely it's harder to make peace with someone if you're convincing them DAILY that you're still trying to genocide them?

The TACO cycle:
Markets want to price in TACO. But TACO only works if Trump sees stocks tank.
So we get a loop: Trump does things → nothing happens (markets already priced in TACO) → that emboldens him to do more → until markets start to think he might not TACO → stocks fall → TACO is restored.

All it takes for Trump to change his mind is for some journalist to ask him whether he really means it.
The problem with Trump is that journalists have incredible policy formation power now that a single leading question can give him an idea, which then becomes policy instantly in a live interview

It is very naive to think that the tensions over Greenland have been reduced, along with the threat it represents, after Trump's speech.
Latching on to a single phrase, glossing over the rest of it, is sticking ones head in the sand.
Hoping it just goes over isn't a strategy.

This is key point - why is UK falling over itself to gain US “security guarantees” for Ukraine?
Given threats to Greenland, what are they worth? How many treaty commitments would US breach if it seized by force or coercion?
Answer is UK and France shirking responsibilities for defence of Europe

What European leaders have been most nervous about is the US pulling back on NATO or Ukraine… but how can Europe trust the US will come to its defense if its trying to seize territory from a NATO country. They can’t. So why cave to keep a security commitment that is not real. 6/
