What has he done to California, has he even realized? The state has more buff loan than his arm.

You do realize he was the governor of the state for eight years, right?

Nice one Arnie. As his famous catchphrase reminds us, ‘I’m going to be back!’

Arnold, are you also supporting Palestinians?, or the abandoned Afghans, many more by uncle Sam

How dare he not address every global issue equally in the same press statement, right? It's absolutely pathetic that he wouldn't cover all global issues in every statement he makes on anything. Right?

 

....right?

Nice one Arnie. As his famous catchphrase reminds us, ‘I’m going to be back!’

Really? I thought it was, "I'm back, but I'm going again."

Here is an idea to aid the cause further. Schwarzenegger could visit Ukraine and do some scenes from the Terminator and stream it. Make t-shirts, posters, etc to raise money. The script is already there.

Listen. Understand. The Russian army is out there. Putin can't be reasoned with, he can't be bargained with...he doesn't feel pity of remorse or fear...and he absolutely will not stop. Ever. Until you are dead.

"Come with me if you want to live". When Zelenskyy refuses he can, of course, say "I'll be back".

Putin thinks he is Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Well said, Arnold. -Here’s his Twitter message with the 9min16sec video. (And yes, it’s subtitled in both English and Russian.):

He should have just said: “Get out.”

or "Get to the Choppa!"

You could feed several herds of cattle with all that straw, man.

I used to think Schwarzenegger was a jerk, and I still think he's a jerk in some ways. But one time I read a story about Schwarzenegger that really surprised me. A long time ago but not too long ago, when Arnold had already become famous as The Terminator, he was in the back of a taxi or limo on his way somewhere. Suddenly he told the driver to pull over and stop the car. The reason for this sudden stop? Somebody had placed one of those big old refrigerators with the locking doors outside their home to be thrown away. Schwarzenegger went up to the house, knocked on the door and told the shocked woman inside something like, "What are you doing?! Why did you put your refrigerator outside like that?! Don't you know that a child could get locked inside of it and suffocate to death?!" The woman said something to him like she was too weak and she didn't know what else to do. Schwarzenegger then walked up to this big full sized refrigerator, picked it up in the air and put it down door side first down on the ground so it couldn't be opened up by any children. After that he got back in his taxi/limo and left without further word leaving the stunned woman with an interesting story to tell. Most people, let alone celebrities, wouldn't have done anything, but he did. He really does care about people.

As an Austrian with a father who was an active party member Arnie knows a Nazi when he sees one. He's rendered the Russians a great service by speaking truth to power, Putin, the war criminal who follows him on Twitter.

"'Stop this war': Arnold Schwarzenegger to Putin".

I am no fan of Putin, or his decision to invade the Ukraine. However, many of those supporting Ukraine are those - including Arnie - who supported lockdowns, loss of civil liberties, and "stay-home" policies. That in itself is a bit of a worry

It's almost like he has different opinions on totally different situations.

I have a lot of respect for Arnold

It's almost like he has different opinions on totally different situations.

And that he has reasonable opinions on various topics...

"It's almost like he has different opinions on totally different situations."

Back in 2020, he was regularly posting to "stay home".

That aside, when you have Macron and Trudeau, two of the worst despots in the west criticising Russia for infringing on Ukrainian liberties, you have cause for concern.

Delirium.

Dictionaries are you friend.

Look up ‘despot’.

Yeah. That will work. Next up, Dennis Rodman. Then, Jesse The Body Ventura.

Well done Arnold. You have done something within your ability to do, to try and help. You have done so in a respectful way towards Russians. An intelligent personal and heartfelt plea to those responsible.

I find myself with a newfound respect for Arnold.

When you have someone post something constructed of so much BS you need to be concerned for their mental state. Your detached from reality and should seek immediate help.

If you think Macron and Trudeau are Despots, then Putin is the devil incarnate, and pure evil.
