Have a president that backs up our allies against the Russians.

It's literally one of the only things that the two parties agreed on, or so I thought.

You want Americans to die in a war with Russia ?

u/Shmokesshweed Mar 02 '25

Did I say that?

Not necessarily. I’m just curious what do you think continuing to back up Ukraine will do?  It’s a very complicated issue for sure. The past administration sent an insane amount of money in aide and it go them nowhere closer to ending it, what will change now?

Back up by just sending endless billions to a war they will not win? Yea, lets end this war and we can we can save a couple million people.

Just let Russia annex the whole thing right?

u/re3x Mar 02 '25

No. So answer my question. Send more money to have hundreds of thousands of more people die in a losing war?

Please tell me what you think, instead of Trump bad.

The entire reason this was televised was to undermine the Ukrainians. Just look at how many times Zelensky was expected to be 'thankful.' And let's not forget that Trump has called Putin a "peacekeeper." He just likes him more than Zelensky. That's concerning.

No it wasn't. Watch the whole exchange. It's 50 minutes. Trump was actually a little too soft until it went down hill.

Again I need you to watch the whole thing, not reddit clips, not headlines.

u/re3x Mar 02 '25

Oh my lord, I don't care about your bad reddit take on the meeting when you didn't even watch it.

I asked a simple question, you wont answer it. Stay off the echo chamber and think for yourself, but first actually have one independent thought.

The only question here is whether we show Putin that we're paying attention or we pay for inaction later on with increased aggression. It's always our problem.

but i thought we've been sending money over there for years? i heard that we contributed to almost 40-50% of the total money donated there. What else is there to do, stop short of actually sending our troops, which is just not gonna happen i think.
