Humble View of the Zelensky 'Visit'/Screw-Up

 Five observations:

1.  All of this  was talked over back on Monday (Rubio comment).  It was clear then....you arrive....friendly chat....sign the rare minerals understanding...no US participation in the ground situation or peace force....no entry into NATO.  

Zelensky flies in....has breakfast with some Senators,  and seems pepped-up to get a  alternate deal at the White House.  Takes about 15 minutes for Rubio to realize  the guy has a totally different plan.

2.  I don't think Trump will meet face-to-face with the guy again.

3.  Lot of chatter in Ukraine....impeachment chatter.  I kinda doubt that Zelensky is President by the end of March.

4.  Europe worried?  Well....they have no cards to play anymore.

5.  The war is over....it may require a month to clear out the fronts....but it's got no more possible thrills.

Five:
The war in the Ukraine is over because the foreign-aid skim-scam was exposed.
With U.S.A.I.D. closed shuttered and kaput, that old familiar 'foreign influence' merely shifts to a different skim-scam.
.
An aside:
The Russian people have zero interest in invading and occupying Europe.
What would be any potential prize?
Some museums and a few cathedrals...
... plus a hundred million ILLxGxLS and other parasitic gimmegrants.

At some point, maybe before WW II....they had a real population. From the last Census, they suggested around 144-million people. I would suggest it was closer to 135-Million, and since then....1-to-2 million have quietly exited. Throw in 500,000 dead soldiers....probably closer to 132-Milllion. More land is not an objective anymore.
