Not any more. Our official position has not changed. The Polish missile defense system is intended to thwart attacks from Iran and similar countries.
Our deterrent against Russia is still the mutually-assured destruction doctrine.

The most important question to Poland now is what does Poland view as its biggest threat. Thus, they signed the deal for missile defense. They could develop nukes on their own completely independent of us. Similar to what Iran is doing.

Concerning the US, our government is too full of Russian sympathizers to actually do what should be done. A suggestion is just that, a suggestion.
