Do you want me to make something up? He was talking about future Russian attacks on the baltics.

This is Biden’s Vietnam. His attempt to further corrupt the Ukraine and threaten Russian security caused this to explode.
Now he’s threatening to put boots on the ground if we the taxpayers don’t keep up.
Wake up people, you’ve been played.
To: Seaplaner
Grandpa, you won in Vietnam. We only came in second when the leftist democrats did exactly what you are supporting now. They blocked all aid to our ally.

They didn’t threaten to put troops in Ukraine. It’s simply not what he said.

It’s not an opinion. He predicted that Russia will eventually attack the Baltics, and that could require US troops. He did not threaten to put troops anywhere if Ukraine aid is denied.

I think it is a bluff. This would not go well for democrats in next years election. In any case congress should not allow blackmail.

Fake dishonest headline.
Makes it seem like it’s saying deployed for this current war, which is not what was said.
Why is Breitbart doing that?

Ukraine is not our ally.
They are are a piggy bank for laundering money for the Dems and RINO’s.

My husband was a Vietnam Veteran who died due to being sprayed with Agent Orange while serving at the U-Tapao Royal Thai Navy Airfield.
He, you, nor any other Vietnam Vet came in second.
It was Johnson Regime who devolved the conflict into a quagmire.

The central problem is you consider Ukraine an ally. Since 2014, Ukraine has caused far more harm to the United States than Russia has.

Give us the money or we send your husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, sons and daughters to die in Ukraine.

Why don’t you just read the article and see for yourself what he actually said?

I consider Ukraine a valuable strategic asset in Europe, and the negatives of giving Russia that victory as too high.
The Ukrainian people are generally good and deserving of our support. It’s not necessary to put them on a pedestal.

He didn’t say that so you’re lying or didn’t bother to read.
Do you think the Baltics, which is exactly what he referred to, are in Ukraine?
BTW Putin just threatened to attack Latvia.
