Nah. Europe has had more than 50 years.

They have a union of 26 countries.

This is their task.

We are not their financed and military outsource.

Cut the umbilical cord on these welfare queens!

It’s time for them to stand on their own feet.

The last time we tried isolationism, just before WWII, we lost 400,000 dead GI’s and spent the equivalent of 2 years economic output pushing the Nazis out *and* giving the genocidal Russians a new lease on life. Who then killed 100K GI’s in Korea and Vietnam through supplying North Korea and North Vietnam with copious amounts of weaponry. Until we break even, body count-wise (and the Russians are 60K short), we should supply Ukraine just to even out the cosmic balance.

Relative to today’s economy, we spent the equivalent of $44T in WWII. I think of $40b as a small price to pay.

Ultimately, Russia is an 11 time zone country. I completely understand Germany wanting lebensraum, It used to be half the size of Ukraine and 1/50 the size of Russia. For Russia to want lebensraum? If Russia isn’t big enough today, it will *never* be big enough. Russia’s limitless territorial ambitions combined with its massive expanse and a regime structured for war are what make it dangerous.
