Either Europe pays its fair share or we need to leave. I can go either way. But pushing NATO all the way to Russia’s border is not a good idea.
NATO has had shared border with Russia for a very long time. And NATO is no danger to Russia. The 'border' issue is just an excuse used by Putin to justify his aggression. It's a fake excuse.
Also I want us totally out of Ukraine as far as giving them money, troops, or supplies. Cut them loose now.
Won't happen as long as Russia continues its invasion and aggressive tactics. Talk to Putin about your wishes and concerns.
If Mexico and Canada aligned with China and set up their troops on our border, we wouldn’t like it either...
Nope. But Russia (the old USSR) did position their nuclear missiles 90 miles from the U.S. What do you think about that type of aggression? And China has, indeed, been position themselves nearby and against American interests, in Panama, for example. Trump is taking care of that aggressive action. So, we don't like it and Russia doesn't like it, but Putin is just making excuses to justify his invasion and aggressive actions. Too bad your buddy wont get away with it.
But keep wishing. Sometimes, wishes do come true. I want a pot full of gold at the end of a rainbow. Think I'll get it?

You just made my point. Russia put missiles 90 miles from us and we reacted. Yet you say that Russia is wrong to do the same thing.
Russia had between 20-25 million WW2 dead. There are naturally paranoid and moving on their border will make them more so.
I am not a Russia fanboi and I am not a Ukraine fanboi, but we need to leave this crap to the Europeans and Russia & Ukraine. We have pissed away enough money already. We got nothing to gain by continuing down this road, except more money lost to our own detriment...
