Russia dug in, as you said.

It may still lose.

In fact, you know, if anything, the momentum on the battlefield has shifted the other way.

The very best that Russia is going to get out of this, at the very best, it's going to fight to a draw.

and it will have a million and a half Russians killed or wounded.

Vietnam took how many years?

Over a decade.

Afghanistan, even longer.

Donald Trump, I don't think he knows he lost, but he knows he's not winning, and he's cutting his losses.

And in fact, the United States recovered from Vietnam.

It remained a great power.

It recovered from Afghanistan.

And that humiliating withdrawal under Joe Biden had remained a great power.

So this, I do not believe, fundamentally undermines the United States.

It's a three-month war.

It will be yesterday's news.

And the United States has demonstrated that it has a military machine that is so precise and so fearsome that neither China nor Russia can approach it.

There's an argument to be made for ending this war, because you cannot change this regime with yet another go at it.

Off the table.

Yeah.
