Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?
 
This is starting to look a bit dicey. Biden doesn't have anything he needs to negotiate or threaten anyone, let alone a major superpower.

I'm hoping it goes like this:

[Biden] - We are going to war with Russia
[Uk, NAto, EU, Russia, Ukraine] - Nahh fam. get fucked.
 
Does anyone else think it's really really funny that in 2022 The United States a corrupt, decaying, overly bureaucratic state is going to war with white, Christian, heavily nationalist Russia?

How did this happen?
I can tell you don't read Russian news at all. A big concern for Russia is the fact that the muslim population is growing exponentially and will be 1/3rd muslin in about 10-20 years. The Orthodox church is losing members due to low Russian TFR and an increasing population going to secularism, while the Muslim population doesn't have those problems.


Around 30 percent of the Russian population will practice Islam within the next 15 years, Russia’s grand mufti has predicted, citing demographic trends.
Russia’s Muslim-majority regions, including republics in the North Caucasus and the republic of Tatarstan, are known to have the highest birth rates in the country, reflecting similar trends worldwide. Various estimates place the current Muslim population in Russia at between 14 million and 20 million people, or between 10 to 14 percent of Russia's total population of 146.8 million in 2018.
“According to experts, Russia’s [Muslim] population will increase to 30 percent in a decade and a half,” said Ravil Gainutdin, the chairman of the Council of Muftis, a religious group representing Russia’s Muslim community.


Russian President Vladimir Putin has said insulting Prophet Muhammad does not count as freedom of expression.

Insults to the prophet are a "violation of religious freedom and the violation of the sacred feelings of people who profess Islam,", Putin said on Thursday during his annual news conference, Russian News Agency TASS reported.

Putin also criticised posting photos of Nazis on websites such as the one titled the Immortal Regiment dedicated to Russians that died in World War Two.

Putin said these acts give rise to extremist reprisals, citing as an example the attack on the editorial office of Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris after its publication of cartoons of the prophet.
 
Honestly all the sabre rattling right now feels a lot like the threats of war with Iran back in the mid 2000s following the Iraq invasion: a lot of noise, a lot of sensationalism, no major risk of actually kicking off. Putin isn't going to invade, Ukraine isn't joining NATO now and every passing day makes it less likely the think tank brains try and sidestep the issue with a bilateral military alliance - and that would be a riot getting through Congress.

They're trying hard to force Russia into Ukraine to get that defensive war spin as Gehenna brought up (thus all the false flag nonsense), but Russia is like Iran in that the ones in charge are pragmatic and aren't going to oblige. Biden's advisors want a war they will have to pull the trigger, something that guaranteed infuriates them to no end.

Man, when did Putin get so cucked? So much for defection...
 
Friend, the stock market doesn't give a shit about what happens out here in reality. The explanation is simple, the fed plans to raise interest rates, and the markets (especially the nasdaq) are brimming with parasite companies that exist to suck up near 0 interest debt and have adult children millenials sell "visions". If the free money goes away, the companies go away. Just wait, if the fed pussies out on interest rates you'll see a massive rebound. Our economy is one massive ponzi scheme at this point.
The latest 2 year bond auction was supposed to be a bust with foreigners shying from the prospect of multiple rate hikes

Instead it went like gangbusters

Nobody believes the Fed is going to get serious about raising rates

Gonna make things all the funnier when it does
 
Another single by Tom McDonald.


How fucked is Europe if Russia decides to actually go yo war over this? Does any country in Europe have any army to speak of or are they actually just on the teet of the US?

That's not taking into account of the energy issues Germany is going to have.

Two World Wars took a toll on Europe.

Imperial Germany in World War 1 held the line on the Eastern Front by itself after Austro Hungary was annihilated.

World War 2 ended Europe's martial warrior way of life for a long ass time.
