Mr. K: "How is it OUR job to spend money on Ukraine defense- they are not even a NATO member."

If you ask me, do I think Democrats waste our money and jeopardize national security by sending hi-tech weapons to a war zone where they are subject of capture and reverse engineering by Russians and whoever else -- yes.

If you ask me, do I think Democrats are providing Ukraine just enough aid to prevent their defeat, but not enough for victory -- yes.

If you ask me, do I think a Russian victory over Ukraine would have catastrophic consequences world-wide, beginning with Taiwan and extending to any border dispute (India?) the US is not committed to defend -- yes.

If you ask me, do I think the US is better off spending $ billions now to avoid the need for $ trillions later -- yes.

As for what is "our job", we will suffer the consequences of Russian victory regardless of whether it was "our job" to prevent it, or not.
I don't think we would like those consequences.

Are you joking? The highlighted countries hate the US and feel they are just American “vassals”. Do you not realize the hatred and disdain for Americans that our so-called “allies” possess. I cannot name any country that is a true, dependable ally.

The US is the most hated country in world history for a reason. The imbecilic, reckless warmongering Demonrats and Noecons are desperate to provoke a war with Russia.

Americans need to violently resist hostilities against Russia. This is NOT OUR FIGHT! Xiden is NOT MY PRESIDENT!
