The past week has been a classic study in chickenhawk politics, courtesy of Ornj Boi. He cannot quite seem to make up his mind as to whether he wants to talk with the Neo-Tsar to find a solution to the 404 War, or not. A week ago, it seemed as though Drumpf and The Putin would meet in Budapest – by all accounts one of the most beautiful and historic cities in all of Europe – to find some sort of acceptable modus vivendi between the world’s two only real nuclear superpowers.
One of those powers is rapidly declining and collapsing in on itself, while the other is resurgent, rising to reclaim its historical place in the world’s firmament. Only someone who has failed to pay any attention to geopolitics for the last 4 years would be unable to guess which is which.
It is precisely because the United States is the declining power, beset on all sides by those it perceives to be adversaries, that it is lashing out and trying hard – or, should I say, VERY STRONGLY – to suppress and contain those other nations. The problem is that the rest of the world has long since grown tired of these idiotic American games, and is finding ways to circumvent them.
Sovereign nations, especially those with real teeth – such as Russia and China – are not impressed by pressure tactics. The Russians, in particular, are supremely unamused by Ornj Boi’s clownish and hamfisted attempts to force his will onto them. They simply do not care what the Americans have to say any longer. They do not care what conditions Drumpf wants to impose.
Indeed, if anything, they are absolutely furious at what they (correctly) perceive to be a betrayal of the promises that Trump made to Putin in Alaska back in August.
During that summit – which was arranged in far too much haste, without any of the preparatory work typically needed for such things – the Russians thought they came away with an understanding that Drumpf had accepted the need for a comprehensive peace settlement, without a ceasefire. Donny-boy’s subsequent statements for the next day or two indicated that he understood this, and that a ceasefire demand was absolutely off the table.
Unfortunately, Drumpf then did what he ALWAYS does. He called in the YURPEENS, and the Crackhead Clown of Queef, over to the White House, and sat down and wasted his time listening to people who hate him and think he can easily be manipulated.
On that last point, sadly, the YURPEENS are right.
They fully understand that Trump is a narcissist of epic proportions, and because of this, he is an extremely insecure man. He constantly needs and wants to be liked and respected. When you combine this with what appears to be the early signs of dementia, you have a toxic combination of elements that makes it very easy for savvy operatives to manipulate a weak man.
I am not kidding about the possibility that Trump has dementia, by the way. A good friend of mine watched his mother decline for years with the disease. He tells me that the classic first signs of dementia are of an extreme exaggeration of a person’s core qualities. The reason for this is that dementia unmoors one from the constraints imposed by reality. So if one is a narcissist, one becomes far more of a narcissist, incapable of distinguishing truth from lies – which is precisely what we see with Drumpf nowadays, wherein he literally makes shit up on the fly, pulling numbers out of thin air, imagining phone calls that never happened, and ascribing to himself deeds that he never did.
And now we see that, precisely because Drumpf is a potentially literally demented narcissist, he is unable to deliver on the promises he made to The Putin in Alaska. This is because he listened to the YURPEENS, who buttered him up – as they always do, even though they utterly despise the man – with over-the-top use of accolades and praise.
All you have to do, is to watch the interactions between Rutti Frutti, the current Secretary General of NATO, and Drumpf, in the White House. As despicable and oily a creature as Mark Rutte is – he is a failed former Prime Minister of an increasingly inconsequential cucked-out European nation – he is also a wily and cunning political operator. And you can see that with the way he lavishes praise on “Daddy” Drumpf.
It is actually quite sad and pathetic to watch. A once-great man has been rendered a weak and useless blowhard who can achieve none of his foreign policy objectives, and who has singularly failed to keep his promises about staying out of foreign wars.
It is going to be a long, terrible, depressing road ahead to 2028 – assuming the FUSA even survives that long.
Anyway, enough of such depressing things. Let us get to the lovely lady of the week.
This here is Anastasiya Verbovaya (Анастасия Вербовая), age unknown but probably in her early 30s, from somewhere in Mordor. She gained notoriety for supposedly being the latest girlfriend of one Timati, a rapper and businessman from Russia who snapped up the assets of Starbuck’s when they left Russia back in 2022, for an absolute steal. He then spun that business back out again as “Starz Coffee”, with a new logo and menu – and, because he paid so little for very valuable assets, he made a fortune from simply improving the shitty quality of Starbuck’s coffee somewhat.
I actually tried Starz Coffee’s “raf” – a uniquely Russian, and wonderful, invention – back in early September, and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was.
It also strikes me as a matter of poetic irony that the Russians have now done to the West, precisely what the West did to her, back in the early 1990s. If you know anything about what happened to Russia during that “robber-baron” era, when priceless state-owned assets were sold off for quite literally fractions of a kopeck on the ruble, you know that such tactics destroyed Russia’s post-Soviet economy and impoverished tens of millions.
Now, the Russians have done exactly the same thing in reverse, thereby severely hurting the profits of giant global corporations like Starbuck’s and McDonald’s. There is something quite delicious about that.
Happy weekend, all.
