What’s not productive is the US projecting weakness. That’s what makes hot wars like this one. What is productive is kicking Russia’s influence and corruption out of Europe. That will bring massive economic benefits to the US that President Trump will manage properly in his 2nd term.
Let’s see what you have proved after this winter. I think you will have proved that Russia has more than enough weapons and soldiers to keep fighting. You will have proved that the US is spending 10 times more on weapons than Russia does. You will have given Russia examples of all modern US equipment. You will have stocked the international black market with US weapons. You will have destroyed Germany’s economy along with much of Europe. You will have split the world in two. With half the land mass and most of the people on the China, Russia India Africa axis. Where they don’t use the dollar. And have far more growth than our side of the world. And you will have proved that Europe is quickly dying from lack of energy combined with lack of population growth, lack of leadership, and an invasion of unskilled criminals from Africa and the middle east.
