Vengeance is Mine

If crime doesn't pay, then you're doing it wrong. - The Gospel of Trump


Today the U.S. officially declared their support for the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This change of position was made public with a pro-Russia vote at the United Nations. It would have been unthinkable just six weeks ago. But the corruptor in chief campaigned on a platform of vengeance and it's the only promise that he can be trusted to keep. Decent American citizens and free elections may be his primary enemies, but he has a long list, a long memory, and he longs to get even with the entire world. And for such a lazy, cowardly man, the only way to get to even is to drag others down.

When Donald Trump was appointed president in 2016 as a DEI hire (Didn't Earn It), he realized that his position was precarious. He knew that Barack Obama was his superior in intellect, political acumen, and as a man. And Trump was cunning enough to understand that Obama's vice president was still a threat. Most people didn't take Joe Biden seriously as a candidate, but Trump feared him as an extension of the Obama presidency. But the problem with attacking Joe Biden is that he's always been a decent and honorable man. So, the dishonorable thing to do was to attack Joe's kids instead.

Punching down is right in Trump's wheelhouse and abusing the power of the presidency is a trivial matter to a career criminal. He fully expected the president of Ukraine to be equally corrupt and 'do me a favor though.' He wanted Zelenskyy to manufacture evidence against Hunter Biden so that Trump could smear Joe by proxy. His ploy failed miserably, and Trump was proven right about the Biden threat. Voters transferred their admiration for Obama to Joe Biden and Trump was humiliated at the polls in 2020. The big lie and the insurrection were purely about an egomaniac trying to save face.

A pathetic loser like Trump needs his revenge and Ukraine is high on his enemies list. I am 100% certain that Trump gave a green light to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Getting others to do the dirty work is classic Trump. He would have hinted that Americans admired strong men like Putin and that they would never support a clown like Zelenskyy. He would have praised the takeover of Crimea with words like manifest destiny and played up Russian superiority to the lesser Slavic peoples. Trump may even have been cunning enough to suggest the invasion in such a way that Putin believed it was his own idea. Trump publicly sowed seeds of doubt to weaken NATO and encourage Putin. And he has consistently belittled Americans who support military aid for Ukraine.

And now it's all coming together. An autistic billionaire who isn't good at picking up on social cues is doing the dirty work for a sociopathic liar whose only real talent is gaslighting the gullible. What could go wrong? A million casualties over three years and 100 billion dollars in infrastructure damage? That doesn't bother Donald Trump. He's never had any skin in the game. They weren't his people, and it wasn't his country. But now he's poised for the biggest win of his life. The partition of Ukraine into Russian and U.S. zones of influence isn't just a brilliant theft. It's also a most satisfying revenge on a stupid little man who doesn't understand that favors are how business gets done.
