There is no comparison to be made, at all, between how the Democrats reacted after Hillary lost, versus how the Republicans acted after Trump lost. No comparison at all.


For a start, before Donald Trump, no President or Presidential nominee in living memory had EVER lost and then refused to concede.
Trump is a whiney, narcissistic man who has never not gotten his way. I didn't find it all that surprising that he reacted the way he did, especially given the way it all went down. Were you surprised he didn't behave "presidential" in a loss?

He is a smarter and more ruthless leader than either Trump or Biden, that is true.

He also rules a country which is basically a mafia state, with a GDP about the size of Texas' and a military that can't do anything to the US or their strategic interests, so I think "we're so fucked" is a bit overblown. It's not the Cold War era anymore. They aren't a superpower anymore.

Russia has over half of the world's nuclear weapons. You don't have to be labeled a "superpower" to be a threat to humanity.

Enough with the moron gifs, eh? What about coming back with...... you know......... facts, or some form of counter-point?

Were you surprised when the entire Republican Party backed his pathetic temper tantrum wholeheartedly, and purged anybody who said different to him, and that's their official party stance now?

Because that's a fucking concern - or do you not think that?

Were you surprised he didn't behave "presidential" in a loss?
Of course not.

Nothing he's ever said or done for literally his entire life suggested he'd act any different.

You prepared to concede that in fact - in reality - the two parties did not act remotely the same in the wake of their respective defeats?

Nuke Australia and NZ
Less than zero concern about that. In fact, in the event of nuclear war, New Zealand is literally the safest nation on the planet to be in (other than tiny Pacific islands)

Anyway...... what exactly is Putin going to do with his nukes, that serves his best interests?

Actually, forget about serving his best interests. What's he going to do with his nukes, that doesn't result in his own death within minutes or hours?

One side refused to accept defeat and claimed fraud.

The other side obstructed, bitched and whined for 4 fucking years.

No. Not the same.
Unless you want to label them both as "childish"

M-A-D only works when both sides care about their own survival. If Putin loses that concern, it's a problem.

Well, Hauler, if you don't want to be accused of living in fantasyland - give us some facts, instead of just your stupid feelings. Give us reality, instead of fantasy. Fair?

What is Putin going to do with his nukes? Nobody has answered, surprisingly.



Putin isn't a religious nut. He's not an end of the world type. He wants power and control, and he wants to keep his power and control. Launching a nuclear weapon permanently destroys all of his power and control. Under his leadership, Russia and the US have both reduced their nuclear stockpiles by about two-thirds, and Biden and Putin have just agreed to reduce them further.

That's the reality. See there are some specifics there?

Feel free to babble vague, one or two line nonsense based on nothing except your feelings and what you want to be true, though. And don't forget the gifs! Because when you have nothing to say and no idea what you're talking about, a short clip of a monkey disguises it very well. ?

The bitching and whining has only intensified in 2021. So much crying.
