Duh, yes we are friends with Ukraine and not Russia, with one and not the other!!!

And it is not in the best interest of Ukraine, or NATO, or our allies, that Trump wants to be a big man and do it alone.

He should be working with NATO, and Ukraine, not helping Putin.

He is NOT doing this to help Ukraine, he is doing it to help his buddy Putin for Christ's sake!!

Everyone knows that but you I guess!

Putin is not just our enemy, he is an enemy of NATO, and by NOT backing NATO's play against Putin, of PROTECTING our NATO allies, he is betraying our allies.

Can you follow that!!??

What do you think the US role should be vis-à-vis each Russia and Ukraine? Are we friends with one and enemies with the other? For purposes of this negotiation, is our role different when Biden was feeding Ukraine money and materiel?

So, then, what is it that Trump is suggesting?

Protecting the United States

>> An alliance? How does dumping our longstanding allies in favor with an alliance with Russia protect the US?

What do you think the US role should be vis-à-vis each Russia and Ukraine?

You didn't answer my question. You still haven't explained, which is my point. Nobody ever explains.

I'll rephrase the question so I am clear about its breadth. How does the US abandoning the West and its collaborative values in favor of the amoral dog-eat-dog players protect the US?

Answer my question and I will answer yours.
