“Bottom line is that Biden is not securing our border as a matter of policy. He is doing it intentionally.”
That’s a fact.
“On the other hand, protection of Ukraine’s border is worth risking a nuclear war.”
Nonsense. If there is a nuclear war it will be started by Russia. And I don’t think Russia is insane enough to do that.

You are wrong. Russia will use tactical nukes on battlefield if needed to reach a victory. Of cause she will NOT launch strategic missiles toward NATO capitals at first place but will answer immediately if she sees such launch toward her. It is in her military doctrine. Read it.
“Russia reserves the right to use nuclear weapons in response to the use of nuclear and other types of weapons of mass destruction against it or its allies, and also in case of aggression against Russia with the use of conventional weapons when the very existence of the state is threatened.”[13] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_doctrine_of_Russia
If you have a modicum of knowledge about history, you know that war can occur when there are miscalculations about the enemy's intentions. You shouldn't ascribe your own values, intentions, etc. to the enemy. We almost had a nuclear war over the Cuban missile crisis because the Soviets did not believe our red line. Fortunately, both sides blinked and the Soviets were given a face saving exit with our withdrawal of missiles from Turkey.
The Russians have drawn red lines over the entry of Ukraine into NATO and the status of Crimea. As we continue to escalate our involvement in Ukraine, we run the risk of crossing these red lines. Russia cannot lose this war. If it believes its strategic interests are being threatened, it will raise the ante. We are already at war economically with Russia now. Who blew up the NordStream pipelines?
Take a look at what Biden said we wouldn't do in terms of the kinds of weapons we would and would not supply at the beginning of the war and what we are doing today. There has been a definite escalation on our side. What happens if the coming Russian offensive is successful? To what extent will we go to prevent a Ukrainian defeat. F-16s? US advisors? How insane are we?
