NO ONE IS LETTING RUSSIA WIN, AND OTHER SILLY NONSENSE
–“Russia is winning because it is militarily, industrially and diplomatically stronger than the US, which has been weakened by decades of neoliberal/neoconservative politics and economics.”–

Peter Donalson, you are a nut or a clown.
0) The USA’s weakness is due to opening the world to free trade at the cost of thhe working classes, and in particular in the hope that china would join the civilized world as a fellow player in maintaining the postwar consensus. That bet failed. We are currently repatriating industry as fast or faster than we ramped up for world war two. That weakness can be solved by continuing repatriation of industry here, closing the borders and repatriation of people to their place of origin, and ending the race-marxist program by purging our academy and schools, and reforming a subset of laws so that they return to their origiinal intentions.
1) Russia’s military industrial complex was in Ukraine along the don river basin, because that’s where (a) coal was (b) food was (c) cheap water transport was. First they sent trucks in under pretense of humanitarian aid, to pull out the equipment necessary for military manufacture ack to russia, then second, they turned it into a wasteland.
2) russia has no industrial complex which is why they can’t manufacture anything of material need, and are buying ammo, drones, and missiles from the few countries that have soviet era arms, or the minimum tech to build drones.
3) Russia’s economy is smaller than that of Texas or Italy, yet it’s territory is over eleven time zones, most of which has limited single-season fertility, low population density, and this is why only Moscow and St Petersburg recieve funding for any kind of development whatsoever.
4) Russia’s economy is low value add (as was the soviet) meaning that they produce food and petroleum, so they have food, energy, and little to no other trade, so the government lives off the proceeds of the petroleum industry from which half of the revenue is produced.
5) Russia’s only tactic so far is the traditional russian tactice of pulling peasants and underclases from the remote regions and using human wave attacks, consuming vast volumes of imprecise artillery shells, and mining the daylights out of miles and miles of territory to slow the Ukrainians down.
6) The USA+UK+NATO strategy is for Ukraine to continue to drain the military supplies, drain the available population , and cause the RU Govt to start to pull from Moscow and St Petersburg, to continue the war. A present RU is preserving it’s only remaining military asset – it’s airforce – which is it’s only means of defense remaining.
7) The current pretense that the USA won’t fund Ukraine in to the future is a two-fold strategy. First, the republicans are holding it hostage against the democrats in exchange for closing the southern border, and second the government, is still attempting to pressure europe to carry more of the burden, and ramp up their military complex.
8) The pretense that a trump election victory is going to work against Ukraine is also a propaganda position, Trump always preseves his ability to negotiate with the leadership of foreign powers so that handshake deals can be made, and the bureaucracy can’t screw up the process. His statement is that he would force them both stop is correct. The most likely outcome is that UA would have to give up Crimea in exchange for the return of the other territories – which are too expensive to reconstruct now anyway. But this would preserve UA capacity to maintain it’s economic viability by access to the black sea ports, and make use of its best agrarian land (most of which will be de-mind and returned to mass industrial farming instead of it’s previous lower performance. Meanwhile RU would not be deprived of it’s only warm water port, and not have to relocate all it’s investment to the east shores of the black sea.
