Oof ....your video was from Jul 5, 2023

Your video hinges on this... but...
Ya for sure because what a political leader said can be trusted.

With Trump you may not like what he said or how he said it, but he gets results.

The Trump years were absolutely amazing, economy was booming and inflation was non existent until the establishment had to step in and squash the populace by halting the economy due to some bullshit virus that they also refuse to admit was made in a lab in wuhan.
Right... Because Trump's United States National Security Advisor, John Bolton saying 'Putin was waiting' for Trump to withdraw the United States from NATO in his second term wasn't a factor.

Your avatar is a picture of Traitor.

Now who is blindly following?

I am done you have shown you are brainwash Trumpers.

And the values of the GOP go out the window when considering Trump.

They arent working. Russia has had some form of sanctions put against them for an extremely long time, like multiple decades.

Even my extremely liberal economics teacher back when I was in college said that sanctions dont work, because the country being sanctioned will just sell and buy their goods and services through a 3rd party country.

Im not happy about this. I wish there could be peace, but I am not going to act like something is working when its not. Russia has massive resources, and a large enough economy and enough trade partners that they really arent without options.

The only way this war stops is if Putin dies.

In May, the EU’s chief diplomat Josep Borrell urged the bloc to crack down on India reselling refined Russian oil into Europe.

May to September value of the Ruble...

They are still selling record amount of oil to india and china. Russia isnt hurting and this graph really doesnt mean anything either because of course the value of the ruble to the dollar is going to be devalued when you make that trade illegal.

It would be like if there was law passed that all $20 dollar bills were no longer worth $20, but zero. The value of the $20 would be zero simply because it is no longer able to be traded with and isnt legal tender. That only works with money though, because you cant set the value of a real good to zero arbitrarily. Fuel for instance has a lot of intrinsic value, and it cant be arbitrarily devalued.

Additionally, the world is starved for fuel right now. We are heading into winter and its going to get worse, as we are already at $5.00 a gallon. Can you believe that? $5.00 fucking dollars. Russia is going to be just fine because they decided to keep producing oil to send to the EU all these years, while the EU castrated itself into become energy dependent on russia, just so they could look good to their oil hating constituents.. BTW it took germany almost a full year to get off russian oil.
