Thank the heavens we have Biden supporting Ukraine instead of Trump abandoning our friends to Putin.

The election of 2024 will go far beyond just U.S. interests. Millions of lives are on the line.

@georgetakei We not only need someone in office who will not abandon our allies and the deals we’ve made but also not allow that money to be funneled elsewhere. I’m all for helping Ukraine as they deserve it on top of the fact that we promised to protect them as part of a deal that was made with them, ironically to help prevent war with Russia.

@georgetakei We're currently relieved here in Europe... but we worry about 2024!

It would be so nice if you could just lock him up! (and shut him up... ah, the restful quiet after he lost the last time)

@georgetakei

I wish someone supported the countries America invaded. There are so many of them.

@georgetakei 1933 Trump runs against FDR and he supports Nazi Germany and talks about how nice and kind is Hitler and he is misunderstood. GOP AKA Party of Trump has no honor, loyalty or honest people. America wake up and please smell the coffee. Women and minorities if POT wins it would be on you.
@georgetakei shame that you believe in the democrats not having blood all over their bodies from the dead in Ukraine. American politics is a disease
@georgetakei billions, billions of lives are on the line here
@georgetakei The GOP/Nazi party in power in 2024 would be the greatest disaster in my lifetime.
@georgetakei taking down the putin regime is taking down the GOP, it's our common fight

@georgetakei

make that hundreds of thousands, likely even millions.

the #climatecrisis has been severely underestimated; the worst-case scenarios of multi climate-warming feedback loops have - or are just about to - make their effects known.

even a #DeSantis -type would be a killer, statistically.

the next years will see millions of climate refugees, even in the best-case of our current path.

@georgetakei " . . . Trump abandoning our friends to Putin." ?

Trump would give away our entire country in return for a 'Like' on Twitter from Putin.

@georgetakei Every US election goes beyond US borders. It matters to all of us!
@georgetakei This is not hypothetical either. The risk is real for Ukraine as elsewhere. This is no time for an amateur.
@georgetakei
Maybe even billions of lives.
@georgetakei
Absolutely. We can unfortunately expect the invasion to be continuing when the US presidential handover happens, and in fact Putin will be aiming to ensure that it drags on that long, in the hope of a US climbdown under a Republican POTUS. Trump, or *even worse* (and I think that genuinely is possible).
Electoral disinformation in the US will be just another front for Putin in his war on Ukraine.

@georgetakei

The most important election of our lifetime was 2016, and we (as a country) fucked that one up.

As a result, every subsequent election has huge stakes on it, and that'll be the case for the foreseeable future.
