But a lot of people like processed cheese, and beg for more.

... I'm pretty sure that a complex multinational issue distilled into a single panel political cartoon is the perfect example of "processed cheese" information.

... But you've never been good at irony.

The easiest way to get away with something underhanded is to accuse someone else of exactly what you’re doing. It seems counterintuitive, but if you keep your eyes open, you’ll see examples all the time.

Cheese has no irony.
You need the spinach for that.

Agreed.

But let's take this serious for a moment.
Did the US, under Donald Trump's guidance, do the following?

1. Build up our military.

2. Provide Defense aid to Ukraine.

3. Strengthen NATO

4. Build up our domestic Oil and Gas reserves.

5. Tougher Sanctions.


Of these, I think only the last one could truly be argued. And the first four items do impact Russia in a negative fashion.

If this is dishonest, I'd like to hear how.

It's really pretty simple, Trump maintains those policies, regardless of when they were implemented, no change is tacit approval.
