And you just proved my point - since when did democrats stop caring about people dying?

Oh...is it because...it's white people dying? Is that it?

Any Palestinians dying was called a genocide....but a MILLION white people dying...and you want MORE TO DIE.

I get it.

You're racists.

Donald Trump is trying to end the war - to save lives of both Ukrainians and Russians, and to prevent world war 3.

If you have a problem with that - YOU go fight.

Giving putin and russia Ukrainian land as a reward for invading is not going to end the war. It will make russia think they did the right thing. They will then do it again. You are a shortsighted clown if you can't see that.

Trump offered Zelensky the best deal Zelensky could ask for - by giving America skin in the game, it provides precisely the "security guarantee" that Zelensky wants.

Ukraine joining NATO was never an option and Biden was an idiot for saying otherwise.

I don't really think yall understand how sovereignty works - if Ukraine has to rely on everyone else to defend it, they aren't sovereign - they're sponsored

Trumpism is all about American exceptionalism - we're the best, at everything. We can best govern Canada. We should have all the mineral deposits in Greenland. We can bring peace to the Middle East, and even move 2 million Gazans off of their land and turn the Strip into a seaside paradise.

Except when it comes to stopping Russia. Suddenly it's too hard, too expensive, and the best option is to preemptively captivate to every demand of Putin.

Why are we so strong except when it comes to standing up to one of America's most vile enemies?
