Neocons demand Ukraine escalation. Trump signals talks with Putin (TheDuran)

The neocons will try to blame the loss on Trump. But the war is already lost. The neocons can simply bugger off. They're shameless warmongers who deserve to be rounded up as war criminals.

One very interesting point to consider is that Trump is aware of the comments made by Professor Jeffery Sachs, who explained the factors that provoked Russia into escalating the conflict in 2022. Russia and the West were already in a quasi state of war after the US backed coup in 2014. 

Trump also does not seem interested in a war with China or against Iran. We know for a fact that Trump derailed neocon plans to strike at Iran when he was last in office. It's likely he'll be restrained once again, although he did authorise the assassination of an Iranian General in Iraq, which was a disgraceful act given the circumstances. 

His comments about Greenland and the Panama canal seem like posturing. However, this sort of talk is causing many on the left, and in the MSM, to go crazy, which may be part of why he's doing it. It puts people on edge and gives him a better bargaining position, as someone who is bullheaded, and needs to be placated.
