Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) on Sunday questioned why the U.S. rejected Poland’s proposal to transfer MiG-29 fighter jets to a U.S. air base in Germany, saying “I don’t understand why we’re not doing it.”
Asked by co-anchor Dana Bash on CNN’s “State of the Union” if he is worried that Poland giving planes to Ukraine could trigger World War III, Portman said “I don't know why that would be true.”

If you get involved in a fight between two snakes you are going to get bit…..by both snakes.
SMDH! Friggin’ republicrats......................
Erik Prince outlined an option to the WH for planes to Ukraine in front of an invasion, which the WH rejected. Prince’s idea looked less belligerent than a move now.

For starters, Portman likely doesn’t have a connection to the Red Phone in the White House.
Oy vey.
Ignore him, shun him and reject the rancid political apparatus that nurtured him.
Because he’s an idiot
These people want to put Americans in harms way to defend one of the most corrupt places on earth. I say let’s send the political trash over there to fight.
And awhile back a lot of other RINO putzes like this assclown for POTUS...Dodged a big bullet there...
Let’s think about Pearl Harbor....Suppose “X” supplied the planes and pilots....Who would we go after?
It’s because a senator Portman pays no price for statements like that. President Biden would.
Did Saddam have WMD? I think he had plenty of time to hide them if so. Could a President Bush not take the subject seriously?
“I don’t know why that would be true.”
That is due to your being an idiot, senator. If someone is arming my enemy I will do what is necessary to stop him. Shall Russia attack us for this action? They would be justified in doing so. I think the esteemed senator should STFU.
What gets me is that these Republicans go on these stupid liberal Sunday shows that hate their guts anyway. That’s more infuriating than them making the statements themselves.
This guy is stupid Jim.
It’s really a shame we can’t put all of the children of the congressmen and senators into infantry units.
This crap would end immediately.
Do not provoke Russian nationalism.
Right now Putin gets the blame for attacking Ukraine.
Russia is losing in Ukraine. Don’t give Putin the opportunity to avoid blame otherwise he will retain power.
Well senator we know why..
Here ya go..prog rock Free video

Taking a subject seriously and giving them time to disperse and hide them and then acting upon it was idiotic to say the least. You know, egg on the face stuff.
We won zilch from all the death in Iraq other than getting rid of Hussein and his rotten boys. Meanwhile, Iraq is a freaking mess.
I agree!
If Russia unilaterally attacking and invading a peaceful Ukraine didn't trigger WW III (i.e., didn't provoke NATO into launching a full-scale retaliatory war) - then why should providing an attacked and invaded Ukraine with weapons to defend itself against and ward off an unlawful invader trigger WW III (i.e., provoke Russia into launching a full-scale retaliatory war)?
