I’ve been confused all along as to what the proper conservative view of Ukraine is.

Some say this war does not affect America directly , and as such, we have no stake in the outcome and shouldn’t be supporting Ukraine.

Other say Putin is like Hitler,and he’s going to invade country after country if he is not stopped.

Generally liberals seem to be all in favor of aiding Ukraine, but because liberals do , does that mean that as conservatives we should oppose aid to Ukraine?

The liberals usdermined Ukraine the very first week that Obama was in office. Actually before- they fought hard against selling a good missile defensecti Ukraine all along.

Obama refused to send Ukraine any timely aid that might have prevented Russian attacks, instead just dithered around sending them some blankets.

Then Biden threatened to with old aid to them when he found out Burisma was being investigated.

Friends of Ukraine? Not really. Just exploiting them for personal gain, while pretending to be president.

Putin’s crappy army can’t win a war against a country 1/4 his size yet he’s a threat to take over Europe?

Versus we’re 34 trillion in debt and the US is facing a severe economic crisis in the near future.

Which scenario seems like the more likely threat to the well being of our country?

The US (and UK) talked Ukraine into giving up their nukes, so you could say we were responsible for them being more vulnerable to Russian invasion. That being said, the country is ripe with corruption & much of the money sent over there is wasted & just makes more corruption possible in many cases. I don’t think most Ds or Rs want to see a Russian victory during an election year, but it feels like we’re just flushing money down the toilet at this stage.

Putin is not like Hitler. Yes we should oppose sending money to Ukraine.

Wish I knew what Zelensky was really thinking in all of this. I am in favor of helping the people of Ukraine, but what are Zelensky’s motives? By now,I would think Ukraine is pretty well bombed out & somebody will need to rebuild it.
