Grand Old Peace Party: Trump, Vivek Lead the Way
We finally have a Peace Party. And it’s the Grand Old Party, the Republicans. Now the Grand Old Peace Party – GOPP.
At the same time President Trump was advancing a peace platform on Tucker Carlson’s show, Vivek Ramaswamy was riding peace to victory in the first GOP debate. He demolished the two biggest warmongers, Chris Christie and Nikki Haley, insisting we stop funding the Ukraine regime, which would end the massive killing, with the body count already mounting to 400,000 Ukrainian KIA and Russian 50,000.
Ron DeSantis waffled, saying we should get the Europeans to take up the burden. Doesn’t he know that’s impossible? What an amateur. Aside from being freeloaders financially, they don’t have the arms factories or armies to take over. The UK, which once stood alone against Hitler in what Churchill called “their finest hour,” now has an army so small it could fit in Wembley Stadium.
DeSantis also was excoriated for hesitating, and first looking at the others, when asked if he would support Trump should the Donald get the nomination. Vivek shot his hand up first. DeSantis’ ballyhooed campaign “retooling” tooled in the wrong direction. He should have used this debate as an opportunity to take the same anti-war and pro-Trump positions as Vivek.
Nikki said:
Ukraine, it’s a front line of defense. Putin has said once Russia takes Ukraine, Poland and the Baltics are next. That’s a world war. We’re trying to prevent war. Look at what Putin did today. He killed Prigozhin. When I was at the UN, the Russian ambassador suddenly died. This guy is a murderer and you are choosing a murderer over a pro-American country.
Putin never said he’d invade Poland and the Baltics, which would trigger direct NATO intervention. And although NATO’s weapons haven’t been up to snuff in Ukraine, wielded by the U.S. and the rest of NATO, and integrated into the existing defense network, they likely would be. Poland also has a tough military of 200,000. And this war has shown defense now is the key to war among industrial nations; so NATO would have that advantage, as well.
“That’s a world war,” she said. Which would be nuclear. And we certainly have plenty of nukes. The Ukraine War also is stupid because, when it’s over with the Russian victory I’ve been predicting from the beginning, Russia’s border will be closer to Poland than before. And it’s military buildup, which is continuing, will more than double its conventional forces.
As to Ukraine being “pro-American,” it’s really an American puppet that’s being sacrificed at the behest of warmongers like her. About 15 million of its 40 million have fled, never to come back. Those 400,000 dead Ukrainians won’t be around to become fathers. The country’s 1.2 birthrate already was one of the lowest in the world. Ukraine only could survive as a neutral country, which it was before this foolish war, and could have remained so. Instead of defending Ukraine, Nikki and the others are digging its grave.
She screeched at Vivek: “He will America less safe. Under your watch, you will make America less safe. You have no foreign politic experience and it shows. It shows.”
Her only foreign policy experience was briefly being ambassador to the U.N., where her hawkish policies contracted her peace directives from Trump.
Her vivisection by Vivek – or Vivek-section – demolishes the pro-war wing in the Republican Party. Most GOP members of Congress still favor the Ukraine War. But they saw what happened at the debate, and back in their home districts are hearing the same pacifist sentiments from their voters.
Americans have had enough of these wars that kill millions and alienate the rest of the world from our country, while impoverishing us.
The way to victory for the GOPP – the Grand Old Peace Party – is rejecting the Biden-Haley War Party and all its works and pomps.
