13. Ukraine might win before then, but pragmatically speaking we may want to initiate a state of war

Drumpf is going to be all about appeasing Pootin and indulging in Russian prostitutes as soon as he gets into office, allowing the phony referenda in Eastern Ukraine to gain legitimacy.

We might be able to peel off a few repukes to declare a proper full-scale war on Russia, in Ukraine's defense. Just as was done against Iraq w/respect to Kuwait.

A state of war is the only card we hold over Trump right now as CONGRESS makes that determination, not the POTUS.

If Trump failed to properly execute and lead that war, impeachment could be on the table.

It's not a pretty solution, but IMO if Ukraine were capable of winning by January they would be gaining territory and not losing it.
