There can only be a consensus, it seems, because it matters so little in US politics That’s also why it didn’t work as a bargaining tool vis a vis border policy. Open borders mattered much more to the powers that be than Ukraine.
The Defense Industry needs support. That seems to be a lesson from this war, and one that is not specific to Ukraine at all. I doubt there are many here on FR who will deny that.
More, the global defense infrastructure is getting bulked up, far more than is specific to Ukraine. The Russian invasion kicked off this global buildup, but the real money is being spent on the national militaries.
The “merchants of death” have had a few banner years, and it seems this will continue. Again, to a vastly greater degree than Ukraines actual needs. The whole world is rearming.
