I think yours is the correct take. Z is doing what I would expect a leader of Ukraine to do in a time like this. If he wasn’t running around begging, he wouldn’t be doing his job. I am indifferent towards the Ukrainian/Russian wat as my focus is on our own border, and the Marxists ‘inside the wire’ here, which is why your comment resonates; our own congress is the problem. We need a national enema.
Yeah, a lake size enema.
I have no dog in this fight.
However Russia invaded another nation that was of no threat to them.
Russia fully desired and expected to take Ukraine.
In a way, it is our fault for Biden being President because we all know full well Putin would never have do this if Trump was President.
But still………at the start of the war, the U.S. gave Ukraine intell. That was it.
The Ukrainians were able to fend off the 7 mile long amour and troop invasion headed to the Capitol with just intell.
Now as the war drags on……….$100 Billion later, artillery, transport carriers, drones, stingers, etc., etc. there’s a stalemate?
There are ways to win this war quickly. The Biden Admin. is refusing to do so.
