This has been a hot topic for conservatives. I fully support Ukraine, but at some point, they have to say they can’t push Russia out. Ukraine does not have the manpower or firepower to dislodge Russia. They’ve tried and failed. Western support is starting to go down because they have not made progress.

I don’t know the solution, but right now, it’s just a war of attrition, and Ukraine loses in that scenario. I suspect this will be a big topic of discussion during the presidential debates.

    It is because of my piety that the whole thing seems sus. Israel has a right to defend itself but somehow Ukraine doesn’t. I remember prophets in the Bible pointing out that Israel had become unrighteous, corrupt and wayward, but now ppl act like it is impossible for Israel to do any wrong. Hamas is a group of horrible terrorists, ( yes they are horrible terrorists) but Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is “genius” and “savvy” according to Trump.

    I’m just over here praying for peace.

        I’m referring to the article you posted, and to the many republicans that clearly don’t feel that the defence of freedom and democracy, nor the existence of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people are important. If they did, they wouldn’t use aid as a bargaining chip in an attempt get extremist border policies passed.

          Nothing extreme about protecting your border. You seem to think we must ignore our border and pay for the defense of Ukraine.

          The only obligation we have is to keep our country safe.
