How can Cruz accuse an entire nation of being America’s enemy?

Cruz should say Putin is the enemy, not Russia. Put the focus on the leaders, not the people. Learn from the Sting song:

In Europe and America
There’s a growing feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
Mr. Khrushchev said, “We will bury you”
I don’t subscribe to this point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too

this is a 100% 180 degree turn-about from what Ted said two days ago:

“I have repeatedly urged President Trump that it is crucial for this war to end with a decisive and unmistakable defeat for Putin and Russia.”

Make up your mind, Ted, make up your mind ...

Exactly. Likewise, without scumbags like Maduro, Lula et al., South American nations would be our allies, too.

Yep. Every mouthpiece seems to think:

1. We all in the west agree a ceasefire.
2. We all send troops in to enforce the ceasefire.
3. Then, we commercially develop the resources, divide the two parties, everybody happy.

Did anyone consider the Russia may not be interested or ready to agree a ceasefire? And they certainly don’t want one based on the current lines. What’s in it for them, now that it appears they have Ukraine on the ropes and the russian MIC cranked up to 11?

They’ll be saying “So... what else you got?”

Just because I’m against sending ANYTHING to Ukraine anymore...doesn’t mean I think Putin is an angel.

He kills opponents and in creative ways...like nuclear injections :)

He is ex KGB and longs for the glory days of the USSR.

But he is pragmatic and his hand was forced in Ukraine when NATO wanted to take it in, allowing them to put nukes across the block from putin’s russia.

Let’s not forget he gave the Iranians oodles of money to fund killing our guys in Iraq.

It was a stupid invasion and I was suckered at the time too...but that was no excuse AT ALL to help iran kill our men.

It was despicable.

Putin, zelenskey, that pr.ck in the UK...hard to find decent leaders these days.

Thank goodness we found a great one

Ted Cruz on Zelensky Demands: ‘Our Checkbook Is Done’. We’ve written trillions of dollars worth of checks for the Green New Deal, now you expect us to write billions of dollars worth of checks to help you defend your lives & freedom from a murderous invader and the historic enemy of the West? What do you think America stands for anyway?

“Zelensky’s performance was “so bad, so outrageous, so infuriating... “

Well said.

Nothing and really the only point to oppose Russia is to save Europe from him.
