What I am saying is that if Russia is selling oil to China and India, and China and India are selling goods to us, it doesnt fucking matter what their currency is doing because they are bringing in money nonetheless.

If you really want to know how the russian economy is doing, look at the cost of fuel, and then compare that with russian exports of oil. That is the only metric worth its weight.
According to LSEG data, Russian crude has been trading currently around $67 a barrel at Russian crude terminals.

A U.S. Treasury official said this week the International cap was still effective as it had helped cut Russian revenues.

Russia isn't making anywhere near the profit on oil that it did before the Ukraine war.

Meh ..

FL,TN,TX and other states have limited the right to assemble.

Tweaking the second amendment shouldn’t be held any higher regard than any other.

You can own all the guns you want, you just aren't allowed to carry them in Public. Why is that bad? Cause you may get robbed by someone with a gun?

People really do not understand the science of escalation and how having a weapon on you all the time is more dangerous than not.

im not cheerleading for jack shit, you just don't understand how the russians manage their economy

you keep thinking like a capitalist, you forget that The russian gov't controls the means of production, therefore they control their profit margain

seems like you fail to understand both capitalism and marxism, both of the economic theories upon which the russian economy is founded

aaaagain, you can sanction a resource-rich nation all day long, it doesn't matter. because even if the world stopped buying their oil, they still have all of the resources within their border. This is literally the definition of a world power.

the foundation of all world power is 4 things: population, food, iron and oil. if you have all 4 of these things, then you don't need another country for anything.

yeah, you aren't gonna have a smart phone built into your fridge, but you forget you don't need it.

The Russians don't give a fuck if they have to live like it's 1980, they aren't soft and spoiled like the rest of the western world

Well then by your standard Russia is screwed.

Population - This from 2022 - Russia’s population nightmare is going to get even worse - The life expectancy of Russian males aged 15 fell by almost five years, to the same level as in Haiti.

And

Russian Births In 2023 Falling To Levels Comparable To Those At Start Of 19th Century – OpEd

food - Despite Russia’s large grain exports, the country is a much larger agricultural importer than exporter (figure 2). In 2013, Russia’s agricultural and food imports totaled $39 billion, versus exports of $14 billion. Even has a bar graph on how much more they import vs export.

Iron - Russian Mining Industry Falling Into Despair
Caterpillar has halted all operations in its Russian manufacturing plants and stopped all deliveries from abroad... companies have ceased exporting spare parts and components. The threat to the Russian mining industry associated with a lack of Western technologies have been acknowledged by government officials.

oil - LSEG data, Russian crude has been trading currently around $67 a barrel at Russian crude terminals.

A U.S. Treasury official said this week the International cap was still effective as it had helped cut Russian revenues.

$67 a barrel isn’t bad all. It’s money in at a time where sanctions are supposedly spanking them.

He is a grifter.
You fall for it, everytime.
I dont blame you. It is clever marketing.
Make you mad.
You get mad.
Say its unfair on someone who is "cleaning the swamp" he fails and he says "swamp is deeper than we thought".
IT'S NOT MY FAULT! SEE, CAPSLOCK PROVES IT'S TRUE.

I'm being indicted for you! Send moneys. Hint: Billionaires DON'T NEED YOUR MONEY, THEY WANT IT.

At least Bozos and Muskrat hide their grift behind an actual product.
You allow tRump to ride roughshod all over you. And yell his praise.

Congratulations, I think.
