Vice President JD Vance declared Thursday that the US will consider sanctions and even military action if Russian Vladimir Putin refuses to end the nearly three-year-long war in Ukraine.

“There are economic tools of leverage, there are of course military tools of leverage” that could be deployed against Putin, Vance told the Wall Street Journal.

The possibility of sending US troops to Ukraine is “on the table,” according to the vice president if the Kremlin fails to negotiate a settlement to war in good faith.

Ive been kind of ambivalent about Vance, but Im starting to like him now because he isnt afraid of standing up to Putin.
 
Way to put on a unified front!

Hegseth is sure to fall off the wagon!
 
Theater.
 
Classic good cop, bad cop.

Beats Joe saying he won't talk to him.
 
"We're giving you the territory you've stolen and we're keeping Ukraine out of NATO, what more do you want?!?"

The Vice President has zero power to do anything. Unless Trump threatens them, hollow words.
 
Vance not saying that the international war criminal must give up his ill-gotten gains is a profile in cowardice.
 
Kinda hard to negotiate when they send you out with a rug pulled over the trap-door!

This was two days ago:

 
Yeah. tough on Russia. Tougher on our allies. Just like his boss.



Wonder how much more our allies will take before they cut us off completely? We just installed a possible Russian asset as DNI, what more can we do to piss them off?

Wait...Did VP James Bowman aka James Hamel aka James Vance aka Man Afraid of Childless Cat Ladies aka Man Afraid of Pet Eating Haitians get permission from PRESIDENT Elon "Pasty White" Musk before making these threats to Vlad?

Or, maybe JD's feelings are hurt because tRump is ambivalent about him as his successor and he retaliated by stirring the pot. Being thrown under the bus on national TV is kinda embarrassing but at least tRump hasn't suggested Vance be hanged...yet.

Between Vance and Hegseth, Europe must be scratching their heads, about now,

So what's your solution? Send American troops and show Putin what for? Are you going to volunteer? Or should we continue to keep the war going in perpetuity? You recall this invasion occurred under Biden's jaundiced eye.

there are serious posters and people that prefer endless war
 
In speaking with The Wall Street Journal, which was the first to report on Vance’s comments, the vice president said sending U.S. troops to Ukraine was "on the table" if Russia failed to negotiate in good faith.

Vance said there are "economic tools of leverage [and] there are, of course, military tools of leverage" that the U.S. could use against Putin.
 
Then there are Posters who can easily multitask. 🤗 😉

This just drives home the inconsistency of the Trump administration.

"NATO needs to spend 5% on defense by nation"

"Actually the real threat isn't from Russia it's from woke"

"Ukraine isn't joining NATO"

"Actually no options are off the table"

President Don "Stable Genius" Trump has the consistency of numbered balls dropping from a BINGO barrel.

His consistency recipe is heavy on chaos with heaping helpings of misdirection and ill intentioned dubiety.

But standing up to Putin also means standing up to Trump. You think he has the cajones to do that?

I think not. I think he was just put out there as a diversion. Trump does not have the balls to stand up to Putin. (Too much for Trump Corp to lose. I have a gut feeling that Trump Corp. is neck deep in commie money.)
 
Meanwhile, Vance is running interference for Europe's Fascist political parties, including Gemany's AfD.

Here's an example of what he's defending:

Germany’s political class, including the conservative Christian Democrats who currently lead the polls to form the next government...distinguish the AfD itself as extreme, because of some of its members’ history of use of Nazi language and antisemitic and racist comments, along with plots to overthrow the federal government.
Or in Vance's world, chips off the ol' block.
