Trying to grasp how anybody can’t see that this very plainly our war, except we have others fighting it for us. If Ukraine goes, the next shooting war will be us right alongside NATO - we need Ukraine to win and at any cost.

I presume you think that NATO's aggressive expansion has no bearing on this.

I don’t care if CNN et al…were preaching we need to get out of Ukraine yesterday. I never gave a crap what garbage they spew and never will. I’ve got my own two brain cells to rub together. Ignoring a pseudo-dictator hell-bent on restoring glory to his country worked really well for all of us in the 1930’s, too.

Classy. I very rarely have reason to disagree with a conservative, but when I do I’m shocked to get such an unhinged response right out of the left’s playbook. Pretty sure we agree on 99% of today’s issues…with friends like these, who needs liberals haha

the border has been in a state of quasi-insecurity for 200 years. it’s a political football both sides toss around to scare the other side when they want to win elections.
what does “secure” even mean? It’s an impossible goal.
Supporting Ukraine in every way possible should be a rare bipartisan stance. An autocrat who hates everything we stand for and wants to re-ignite the Cold War is trying to bulldoze a tiny nascent democracy who has close ties to us. The fact that it’s failing while the world is watching has given us a tremendous amount of soft power, and further reinvigorated Western unity.
Every dollar spent there is a far better investment than the trillions of sunk cost we’ve dropped into the sandpit.
it’s nuts that some Americans are neutral or tacitly pro-Russia in this whole shebang.
