At it's current pace Ukraine could be at war 3-5 years or more
US is not just any country , it is still a power that keeps certain other powers not to get too exited , so having a president that at least knows the basics is mandatory .
Here's how I see a potential Kennedy Presidency, Dem-controlled media will still blast him but not near as much as Trump. General public will be less anxious and once they hear Kennedy's social programs will turn down the heat. Im not even sure President Kennedy could stop funding Ukraine without sacrificing getting the votes for his other domestic policies, but it will curtail funding somewhat hopefully leading to negotiations for a peace settlement in Ukraine's favor. You know typical good ole American compromise politics, the only way when the country's ideals have such a widening difference.
Just saw this? Is the US pressing Ukraine to quit hitting Russian refineries? doesn't that sound counter productive to the cause?
in real wars are military strategists controlled by commodities pricing?
I usually loathe WWII analogies in respect to 2024 geopolitical differences but...
America's oil embargo against Japan prior to WWII no doubt had an effect on global oil prices. If we are to end the war with Russia shouldn't pressure continue to be brought to bear against Russia?
appreciate the discussion FWIW every indication is that RFKjr run in all 50 states would likely help Trump in every swing state there is.
States Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio are up for grabs. You do believe RFKjr should atleast be on all ballots?

And Kennedy will have to contend with determined opposition from the Democratic Party and outside groups that are trying to thwart his efforts out of fear that he could play spoiler and swing the election to Trump.
His campaign is officially on the ballot in one state so far — Utah. But it says it has collected enough signatures to also qualify in Nevada, Hawaii and New Hampshire. American Values 2024, a pro-Kennedy super PAC, says it has collected enough signatures to get him on the ballot in Michigan, South Carolina, Arizona and Georgia.
Even if he got on the ballot in just a handful of those states — say, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire — Kennedy could have a significant effect on the outcome in November. Both major-party campaigns know it.
