Ukraine is definitely Americans issue. It’s the key to controlling Russian aggression . We don’t need to return to another Soviet era type Cold War which is exactly where Putin wants to go. Putins ability to manipulate Trump should give every patriotic American pause.

Tell you what. Explain in detail how pausing aid to Ukraine and suspending cyber attacks on Russia will send a message to Putin that he should withdraw troops from Russia and seek peace.

You think we need to control Russian aggression while I don't give a [BLEEP] about Russian aggression. Nothing needs to be explained, we have no business being involved. You're the one stuck in a Cold War mindset and your solution is to make it an actual shooting war, one that you noticeably refuse to participate in yourself even when given repeated opportunity to do so. Just accept that you're a little chickenhawk who wants other people's children to die for your beliefs and that because of that not one single thing you say matters.

I get that you don’t care about Russian aggression. Prior to world war 1 and 2 no one cared about German aggression as they rolled smaller countries up either. And each time we ended with a world war. We then ended up with a Cold War with the Soviet Union , the result of Russian aggression . Which also cost American lives ( Vietnam /korea) and had us on the brink of nuclear destruction a number of times.

And now we again face an authoritarian aggressor from Russia. A man who longs to build Russia back to the Cold War era. That thrived during that era. Thats already attacked America with cyber attacks on infrastructure. And they have tried to influence our elections.

We either stop Russian aggression now. Or we face another larger war that might cause the destruction of the world as we know it.

I ask you again as you failed to answer.
