The Clintons and the Biden's have made a lot of money from both countries, and China as well, as I'm sure plenty of other Democrats, and Republicans have done for many years.
Our Republic is dying, and for me, that is far more important than what's going on between these two countries. All we've ever heard is that the U.S. should be more like Europe, well f*ck that. And now we have another manufactured crisis to take our minds off two years of lies being fed to us about Covid. Millions of taxpayer dollars that will never be accounted for, will be sent to Ukraine so they can fight Russia, while we pay Russia millions for their oil. When a foreign country's border security is more important than the border security of your own country, and when Republicans vote to support all of this, then it's time to admit that America is headed for the trash heap of history. Republicans are part of the ongoing problem.
My Republican Congresswoman Claudia Tenney (22nd NY District) voted for House Resolution 956, in support of aid to Ukraine. I called her office this morning, and spoke to a young man. I advised him that I was extremely disappointed with her vote, and gave him my reasons why. I also told him why, after January 6, 2021, I am no longer a registered Republican, and will not be voting in any future elections. I'm done with these fools, and will no longer compromise my values by holding my nose and voting for the better of two evils. Those days are gone.
Not all Republicans are neo-cons. But I agree with your sentiment that we shouldn’t really care too much about either country.
Well said.
