A Senate Democrat said that the U.S. needs to discuss sending American troops to Ukraine — arguing that Vladimir Putin “will only stop when we stop him.”
Appearing on Face the Nation Sunday, Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) was confronted by CBS’s Margaret Brennan about comments he made earlier in the week in which he argued the U.S. needs to figure out when it would be willing to send armed forces to Ukraine.
“We are in a very dangerous moment where it is important that on a bipartisan and measured way we in Congress and the administration come to a common position about when we are willing to go the next step and to send not just arms but troops to the aid in defense of Ukraine,” Coons said. “If the answer is never then we are inviting another level of escalation in brutality by Putin.”
Brennan asked Coons, “Are you arguing that President Biden was wrong when he said he would not send troops to Ukraine? Are you asking him to set a red line?”
The senator praised Biden’s “steady and constructive leadership,” but called for the U.S. to stand “more forcefully” behind Ukraine.

Putin will only stop when we stop democrats.
Putin will only stop when we stop democrats.
Yes sir it appears you’re correct.
Another poster pointed out that every major conflict was started by a Democrat with the exception being the Bushes who with hindsight were assistant Democrats anyway......
Send their daughters too.
Outstanding catch!
INHO: World War 3 is a vital part of the NWO elite’s plan to remove America and succeed with their Great World Reset. (AKA: The Great Tribulation) There is no turning back for them now at this point, they have to win or they will lose big because those around the world with eyes can see the devastation they are causing.
The Democrat war drums are the reason Putin moved in Ukraine.
When will to Fox idiots wake up. The other two cable outlets are the WAR CHANNELS. They’ve knocked every other news story out of the discussion and it’s now WAR 24/7.
Folks need to wake up to the big picture. They are controlling the narrative.
Idiot Republicans need to call Coons and the Democrats out.
The Bushes were RINOs.
How’s that change the scoreboard?
I’m game for that.
...and some FReeper CINOs.
The Bushes got us into some wars, breaking the prior pattern of the Dems getting us in, and the Reps getting us out. Trump restored the prior pattern.
Rush was right when he said the only war the left approved of was one that did not have any benefit to the US.
It’s always the Dems and assistant dems who want to send our troops to wars
We can’t stop the invasion on our Southern border. How can we stop one on the Ukraine border?
“Rats were responsible for every War involving the USA since after Lincoln and until the Bushes.”

I was reading the book by Robert Stinnett ‘DAY OF DECEIT’ and the book details how Roosevelt [PLANNED and ALLOWED the Japs to attack Pearl Harbor.
Anyone who thinks it was a “surprise attack” is ignorant. The 8 point McCollum Memo was followed point by point from START TO FINISH. Every DEm president was involved from Mexican Spanish War to WW1 onwards.
Pro war party - always and forever. There’s lots of land to bury the children of the middle class.
That there is the problem.
Rats are master deceivers and projectors.
They claim to be "give peace a chance, make love not war.".
Also rats claim to be "for the little people", which clearly they are not.
Coons (or anyone) needs to be able to fully answer these questions in the affirmative with details. Otherwise, the US risks a lot:
Powell Doctrine (modified Weinburger Doctrine):
1. Is a vital national security interest threatened?
2. Do we have a clear attainable objective?
3. Have the risks and costs been fully and frankly analyzed?
4. Have all other nonviolent policy means been fully exhausted?
5. Is there a plausible exit strategy to avoid endless entanglement?
6. Have the consequences of our action been fully considered?
7. Is the action supported by the American people?
They will imprison draft dodgers, and those who aid and abet them. They will do the same with anti-war protesters.
