President Joe Biden warned Thursday morning a Russian attack on Ukraine could begin in the coming days, casting a new incursion into the country as all but certain and warning Moscow could stage events in the lead-up to generate a pretext for war.

Ok so sure we were wrong. There wasn't an invasion Wednesday. But you gotta trust me they're definitely invading in three days.

    Oh absolutely, I never expected him to do anything about that. The only positive of his whole presidency will be me delivering a Cassandra-sized "I fucking told you so" to every one of my lib friends once the Dems eat absolute shit in 22 and 24.

      In hindsight, Biden getting voted in has been just marvelous for radicalization. On the other hand, it's going to cause the Mask-off Ghoul Party to get re-elected and plenty of Libs would rather double down and punch left than wake up and smell reality.

        If we wanted to use this as a talking point, how would we do that?

          Press people on how much Biden has fundamentally changed the "going-ons" of the US after Trump. After that, you need to have a response-tree prepared since libs have been somewhat creative in mental gymnastic-ing rationalizations. For example, if Biden doesn't want to rock the boat too much with what he actually could do (via executive order) to later enact necessary reform while keeping the US "stable", when? Before the GOP likely wins 2024? Furthermore, can they point to the part of American history where this has actual precedence?

        A lot of them are receptive but haven't taken the dive over into leftism. A few for sure will just say "Joe Manchin" until they turn into a corncob.
