“… Demeaning the sacrifices of those who defend their borders, language and culture from genocidal invasion is beneath American conservatives…”
*******************************************************

I’m guessing you don’t recognize that MANY of the Ukrainians dying or being maimed or psychologically damaged have not been defending their borders VOLUNTARILY. But you should certainly feel free to refinance your house and cash in your dwindling 401(k) and send it to Ukraine. Just don’t expect me to do the same… all my contributions (via taxes my family pays) have been and continue to be INVOLUNTARY.

Both sides draft, WWII was fought by draftees, it is how large wars are fought.

How many Americans were drafted in WW2? Care to demean them and their sacrifices, too?

“Feel free” to tell Americans in Texas with good tax-paying jobs exporting energy to Europe that you prefer their jobs go to Russia and those American families be SOL this Christmas.

Our American standard of living, including your 401k, has vastly increased in our lifetimes due in very large part because of our economic position in the global economy. Deny that reality of you wish from the comfort of your armchair. Meanwhile, President Trump will forward his America First and not an America Alone agenda.
