I am an America First supporter. We should not be involved in these endless wars that are bleeding us dry. Our national strategic interests are not involved. Being against our involvement in the war in Ukraine does not mean I support Putin or his invasion.

Where were you in 2014 when Putin invaded Ukraine and annexed Crimea? This war has been going on for 8 years. We have no treaty obligations to defend Ukraine. We can't afford these endless wars. So you have confidence in the Biden national security team? Blinken, Sullivan, Nuland, Austin, and Milley? They are dismantling the US military with their woke policies. Recruitment and retention are suffering. Spending tens of billions on proxy wars weakens us.

“I am an America First supporter. We should not be involved in these endless wars that are bleeding us dry”

That is a reasonable position. Better than the America haters that simply want us to lose.

I do think your position is wrong, and reflect a Liberal Worldview. Do you support defunding the police? Do you believe that without the Thin Blue Line everyone would live in peace and harmony?

The reality is that someone needs to maintain law and order. For the past 70 years that has been the USA, and it has led to a long period of peace and security. Is it fair that the whole burden falls to us? No. Yet I would much rather it be us that sets the rules than someone else (The UN, China, Russia, etc)
