More like thinking you can effectively fight a land war against Russia, on Russia’s borders...

So, don't fight back against the invader, because you can't do so "effectively"? It's not like Ukraine invaded Mother Russia, after all.

When Russia first invaded, it was going to be "three days to Kiev". Then three weeks. Then three months. Now...not very effective?

“three days to Kiev”

The Russians sent in about 80,000 troops for a “special military operation”.

Contrary to Putin’s hopes, they were not welcomed.

The Ukrainians had their whole army in Ukraine.

The outnumbered Russians had to beat a retreat except in parts of eastern Ukraine where the Russians quite often had well-armed local support.

Correct. The PROPER thing to do is address the concerns of your huge neighbor, rather than listen to a bunch of DNC Numbskulls halfway around the world...because that’s how countries get wiped off the map.
