“Lend-lease.”

Ohhh,, like we did with England in 39-40? SOunds like a good way to get dragged in. And interest free loans to peolle arming to fight China? Seriously? Pssst,, guess who WE already owe over a trillion to already? Yeah, THAT China,,the one that holds 26% of our foreign debt.

And let them use our nuclear umbrella? Are you insane? In return for risking nuclear attack on American cities, what do we get in return? Free oil for 5 decades?

Yeah, i thought so.

Desert. With respect: you guys weren’t dragged into anything by Lend-Lease. The Japanese attacked you, and then Hitler declared war.

These countries have money and need weapons. No need to do anything like vendor-financing or arms-swaps for territory - and no need to send ‘trainers’.

Just sell them weapons and so reduce the unit price of your own stuff. No need to let the Russians supply both sides.

Cordially.
