There's always money for war.

Assuming that you're either foreign or very young and maybe have never heard of the Vietnam war as just one example? Korean war? Syrian Civil War?

I know that. And that's the point. And no I'm not a foreigner or young. How is our track record going in Afghanistan and Iraq? Syria? Korea? (We have a North Korea with nukes).

We're supplying weapons to Ukraine, which guarantees that entire country will be reduced to rubble and the civilians will suffer the most casualties and the neighbors of Ukraine will be burdened with millions of refugees. Ukraine is Europe's cannon fodder.

My point was, we supplied weapons to Afghanis to fight the Soviets and then when we went into Afghan those weapons were used on us. The same will be true in Ukraine. A lot of our weapons will fall into the hands of our enemies.

Whereas we could not supply them and the whole of Ukraine would.....fall into the hands of our enemies. Perhaps there is no right thing to do?

Ukraine is also our enemy. They're one of the most corrupt nations on the planet. We just want them around for their resources. That's it. Nobody wants them to join the EU. So they'll be reduced to rubble as a result and Russia will still hold all of the territory that Europe wants. I don't think the Russians will ever allow outsiders to control that part of the world.

Yeah. Why can't they just roll over, lie back and think of Stalin?

If one particular weapon has killed the majority of the Russian generals there, they should nickname it "The Stalin".

If so, I guess we must have gotten some North Korean engineers involved in the design phase.

Let's not forget that these same anti-American Marxists said we couldn't afford $5B to finish the border wall.

Vote against every Democrat at every opportunity.

What’s fascinating, is that he continues to have opportunities to speak in public, without benefit of a teleprompter.

As it relates to this incident, Biden made clear this proxy war benefits Lockheed and its employees.

The US military industrial complex demands constant feeding.

I've always heard that Democrats will get us into a war to help our economy. And it seems to be true.

I like the way you think...
