RINOS AGAIN REAR THEIR UGLY HEADS…

If there is one certainty in this ever changing world it’s that we have those in our ‘fake news’ media, and we all know who they are, intent upon finding those who we’re then told to pay extra attention to because they, like President Trump, are Republicans but, unlike President Trump, seem to have very little interest in his effort to ‘Make America Great Again.’ It’s these ‘Republicans In Name Only’ who seem far too eager to criticize the effort, as they prefer America as it is. So, on the contrary we should NOT pay these people any amount of attention, we should, instead, simply ignore them. And yet they continue to be paraded out for our consumption.

And it was one of ‘RINOs’ who recently appeared on CNN’s ‘OutFront’ for the specific purpose of maligning President Trump. This time around it was a guy by the name of Don Bacon, a Republican member of the U.S. House from Nebraska, who made it pretty clear this past Wednesday that he’s one of those RINOs in Congress that we still seem to have far too many of. And it was then that he attempted to make the argument that President Trump was “wrong” for “standing on the side” of Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Ukraine conflict. But, I think, to make such a statement is more than a stretch regarding what it is that’s actually taking place.

Bacon said, “Well, the president needs a do-over day – start again. He took a bad turn. I think what he said is wrong. And it’s a shame. Many Republicans know what the president said today was wrong. Putin started this invasion. He is the dictator. He has killed all of his opponents. Zelensky was rightfully elected. He is under martial law. And they have under their constitution that they can postpone their elections while under martial law. Ukraine is the victim. And I would ask that our president stand on the side of freedom, the side of democracy, the side of the victim, not the invader, and stick up for what’s right."

And he went on to say, “And so I wanted to be very strong in my words today because this Republican does not agree with what the president said.” And it was host, and resident bimbo, Brianna Keilar who asked, “Should Zelensky have handled this differently? What did he say?” Bacon said, “I think he handled it tactfully. You have to push back. He is the victim. Putin is the invader—Putin’s bombing of cities. Russians are obliterating the towns that they have taken over, and they’ve assassinated or murdered prisoners of war. They’ve raped and pillaged. Russia is on the bad side here. And we need a president that has moral clarity when it comes to this war."

He said, “And right now, though, today, I had hoped the president would step up and be better than Joe Biden. I thought Joe Biden was slow in getting weapons there. He was using rules of engagement that restricted Ukraine. It was really feeding the gridlock. I had hoped that this president would step up and try to finish this war in the right way, not in an un-noble way. And what we see today is not a noble course of action. We’re standing on the side of the dictator, not the side of democracy.” If Bacon feels this way, then he shouldn’t object to letting the people of Kyiv hold elections, something they've been denied under Zelensky.

Bacon seems to be another those a little too eager to reject any discussion of the conditions that might lead to the end of this conflict. Often, those who support policies that lead to endless wars have some connection to the Military Industrial Complex that profits from it. Bacon is a retired Brig. General, so I would not be surprised if he’s getting kickbacks and wants his share of the gravy train to keep coming. These RINO war hawks need a dose of reality. Ukraine cannot win the war or retake the land Russia occupies. If they keep fighting it only gets worse. President Trump gave Zelensky a chance, he declined. He won’t be the leader in a few months.

And why is it that Bacon chose to go on CNN to express his opinion? That act alone makes me completely distrust him. These RINOs always run to CNN, or the like, where they are provided a platform from which to spew their nonsense uninterrupted. Yup, if a Republican goes on CNN, you know he’s a deep state RINO who has likely made a healthy chunk of change from this war. Bacon the RINO is someone who voted with Joey more than any other Republican in the House. And his suggesting that President Trump “echoes” Putin is more than ridiculous. It’s disgusting how he shamelessly repeats the globalist mantra about the “unprovoked” invasion by the Russians.

If you want to end a war, you negotiate with the side who’s stronger. And it’s Bacon who has no answer nor offered any plan at any point during the last few years. Now I may not be a retired general, but it only makes sense that the EU should have, and needs to be, the ones “defending” Ukraine if it’s this perilous fight that must be waged. We have invested billions of taxpayer dollars in loans that will never be paid back, and to what end? Does anyone actually think that Ukraine has the forces and power to push Russia out on their own? This is in the EU’s back yard. They’ve been grooming Ukraine for years to join them, and into NATO.

Pretending Russia isn’t capable of inflicting massive damage when it feels it is being threatened/embarrassed, or a dictator like Putin is in danger of losing his grip in his country from failure is a Pandora’s box that will likely be opened, and that lid won’t be closed. This entire conflict has been tap dancing its way toward WWIII, given the west’s reluctance to really care what’s going on to stop it. But rest assured, at least the defense contractors are making out like bandits. Now if the EU would just stop enriching the Russian war machine by buying up all their oil and gas supplies, perhaps they would be more inclined to assist more fervently.

But yeah, President Trump is wrong to call out Zelensky. We don’t need to be pouring any more billions of dollars down the Ukraine black hole. There was never any end game or exit strategy. President Trump knows this, and he will do whatever it takes to end it. Only a very stupid, or very corrupt, politician would oppose President Trump. It’s easy for some self-righteous hypocrite to sit far from combat and whine about what a great guy their autocrat is. Let Zelensky end martial law, have a vote, then go to the EU for assistance. We as a country have spent far too many tax dollars on a notoriously corrupt, authoritarian government. It must be brought to an end!!!
