      Tell us what you want to happen with regards to Ukraine and NATO?

      By the way, the USA is the only country that can do anything. Your country is totally useless and a fucking embarrassment militarily. Hang your head in shame, son. And you, too, SSG.

      I have already said what I thought should have happened with Ukraine and NATO. As usual you didn't want to engage in an adult conversation and felt the need to ridicule my answer. Big surprise!! LOL

        What's the difference between a Republican and a Ukrainian?

        Ukrainians defend their capital.

                He still hasn't criticised trump for his praise of putin on the invasion though, which has dramatically increased the price of fuel.
                Mainly because it only in your twisted Trump hating mind. You really need to get some psychiatric help before you really go totally bonkers when President Trump is once again back in the White House. Which could be sooner that you might expect.

                  Adjusted for inflation, $3.64 in 2012 is equal to $4.50 in 2022.

                  AS for the world price of crude oil, about the same as it is now. But not adjusted for inflation. So it does look like it was actually higher, adjusted for inflation, at the middle of President Obama's te3nure in the White House.

                      Right before Trump was gone I paid under $2.00 It has gone up steady right after Biden took over-or whoever is pulling his strings. It is obvious that the War going on are a major impact on prices but they had already gone up quite a bit before that.

                                You have very selective memory.

                                Right after the ex President left office, COVID was devastating the US and global economy due to shut downs and people not travelling.

                                This caused a large drop in demand for transportation fuels of all types and fuel prices went way down. To compensate refineries cut way back on production and oil tankers were making many fewer trips to North America bringing in raw crude. There were actually tanker ships floating all over the ocean with no where to go to unload their cargo because no one would take it. US pump prices were at record lows.

                                Only in the last year has the economy opened up and demand for fuel has risen far faster than refiners expectations.

                                Russia imported a special type of heavy crude that US refineries are designed for. With this supply now taken out of the supply side, prices will rise even higher.
