Fortunately, you are correct. I personally won't vote for any Republican who advocates eliminating military aid to Ukraine. I'll leave that line on my ballot blank if need be.

That’s EXACTLY what we figured about you - any excuse to not vote Republican.
Thanks for confirming.
Given multiple polls show most Americans don’t align with you, I imagine that the almost extinct support among Republicans for the Bush’s and McCain types, you are in the minority among Repubs.
From a contact in Russia:
On mobilization in Russia
One of my friends got mobilized recently. He’s a mobile gamedev and a conscientious objector. So he tried to flee his city (Petrozavodsk) and drove to the nearest border (of Kazakhstan) but the seemingly endless traffic jam made him return in despair.
That’s how they caught him and transported to the nearest voenkomat. He couldn’t believe his eyes. There was a WW2 veteran standing in line as a volunteer. Soldiers were given out vatniks sheathed in camo print. Boots with so many holes that they looked like crocs and kits with personal hygiene items that included condoms. Yes, condoms. A Russian analogue of Durex - Gusarskiye so naturally they were also peppered w/ holes - a point of hearty laughter of everyone involved
They were to be transported in cargo section of an old Soviet plane to Ukraine.
They were allowed to “relax” for a few hours before that - i.e get drunk/high out of their minds and listen to the instructions of the Politruk who riled them up by talking about beauty of the Ukrainian woman and prosperity of the average household.
The tattered drunks of all ages were all ears. “Listen up, scum. You’re about to fly first class to a western democracy. So do what you do best: destroy their livelihoods and make them pay for being better than us. We will defile their land because we can. First and foremost, we are Eurasianists. We’ve learned from the best: Mongols, fascists and communists. You don’t need any training - it’s in your blood. No need for fancy gear either. The strongest will survive and bring his enemies to heel” as my friend later recalled speech.
So obviously he was looking for a way to escape this. He stood up and said “I’m gay”. A crazed mob jumped him and beat him bloody. But he smiled the whole time, ignoring broken ribs and bruises. Nevertheless he persisted. He’s going to prison for life for his orientation instead.

Thank you! My Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren are just biting at the bit to live much less prosperous lives to pay for it!
Obvious you are a Warhawk because you know you will not be the one to slave and pay for continued money laundering of the corrupt elite.
Do you care so little for your own Grandchildren” or don’t have any?
I don’t get it. We don’t have military treaty with Ukraine. We shouldn’t even want them in NATO, as it just enflames tensions and doesn’t give us anything. Is it about Russia hate? Not my favorite country but it’s not like they are China either. If our Government had things well in hand in our own country then I guess I could grant them some leeway for foreign adventures, but as it is we have need of ever single cent. It doesn’t serve American interests to help Ukraine, and that is the only thing our Government should be concerned with. Honestly you think that we should defend Ukraine when our own border is being overrun? Personally, any candidate that has Ukraine as a primary plank of their platform I will pass on, unless their opponent is even worse.

All the problems our own country has and Ukraine is more important to you?
