My dad loves this joker, cus my dad is an embarrassed trump supporter. One grift to the next for him.

The only thing I could find on West saying about his "plan" for Ukraine is "I would pull back on the U.S. military support." And call for a ceasefire, all while calling himself a "jazzman of American politics" and making sure everyone recognizes the historical context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He specifically mentioned Alexander the Great and the Cuban missle crises.

So, withdrawaling US support while calling for an immediate ceasefire isn't what you would call "Ukraine should give up.".... I disagree. How do you characterize west's position?

it's incredible to me that you would call one of the most accomplished scholars if our time "a joker".

He's a legend in his own mind, and the handful of people gullible enough to believe him.

he's an ivy League philosopher.

Who was denied tenure. His celebrity vs his accomplishments is way out of whack. That's an obvious sign of grifter. Jordan Peterson was a professor.
