"...conflated our domestic southern border with the borders of Ukraine...."

It's meant to be in principle, not a direct comparison.

Although, in my opinion when the end result of either is substantial loss of life and a cost of billons of dollars, the two may be more similar than we want to acknowledge.

Tucker was insisting that she should want to send the any to the southern border if she wants to help Ukraine.

She doesn’t want to send troops to Ukraine.

Nobody is a bigger border hawk than me, but Trump secured the border just fine without using the army.

You’re not going to get border security with Biden.

And not much national security, either.

Tucker advances the proposition that because we do not defend the southern border we ought not defend the territorial integrity of Ukraine, or even that it means that we have no national interest in defending the territorial integrity of Ukraine.

One simply does not follow the other.
