You want to chance a nuclear war to save most corrupt country in Europe while we are drowning in national debt and more broke than people who cannot get new credit cards? Are you like total nuts?

Putin is "chancing nuclear war." Backing down to his threats would only validate and empower him.

Putin is the "bad guy" here. That ought to be evident.

Yes these 2 facts are correct.

(1) Putin is not our friend

(2) We are much more broke than Russia and in no position to afford any foreign wars.
