“Worse, some have been hoaxed into believing that once Ukrainians forces are exhausted, American soldiers will come in to replace them and “win the war”.”
Wherever did they get this idea? Who has been telling them this?
Biden: Help Ukraine Now or Send Americans to Fight Russia
The president warned congressional Republicans wavering on Ukraine: Provide aid now or send U.S. troops to fight Russia when Putin acts against NATO.
“We’ll have something that we don’t seek and that we don’t have today: American troops fighting Russian troops,” Biden said evenly.

President Joe Biden delivered his sternest warning yet to congressional Republicans balking at approving more aid to Ukraine: Pay up now or you’ll pay more later, forced to send U.S. troops to fight Russian soldiers when an emboldened Russian President Vladimir Putin moves in on a NATO member country.
“Congress needs to pass supplemental funding for Ukraine before they break for the holiday. It’s as simple as that,” Biden said at the White House as the GOP-led House mulled Biden’s request for $106 billion in emergency spending, including foreign aid.
“Frankly, I think It’s stunning we have gotten to this point in the first place. Republicans in Congress are willing to give Putin the greatest gift he could hope for and abandon our global leadership,” Biden said.
Noting that underdog Ukraine has managed to hang on for nearly two years after the Russian invasion of its western neighbor, Biden said, “We can’t let Putin win.” If the autocratic Russian leader succeeds in vanquishing Ukraine, he may well continue his aggression to include a NATO member country, triggering the security alliance rule that demands other NATO countries come to its defense.
“If Putin takes Ukraine, he won’t stop there,” Biden warned.
And then, “We’ll have something that we don’t seek and that we don’t have today: American troops fighting Russian troops,” Biden said evenly.
