    Sorry - I don't believe you and I don't think anyone that is going to be objective is going to believe you.

    The administration that you are part of had "peace talks" with Russia and did not even include the President of Ukraine.

    The President and leader of your administration has come out and blamed Ukraine for Russia invading Ukraine.

    The President and leader or your administration has a very long track record of supporting the positions of Russia in the conflict with Ukraine.

    It is what it is - and honesty is not something remotely associated with the Administration that you are part of and the only logical conclusion is that you, Marco Rubio, have decided to compromise any integrity you have in order to have a seat at the table with President Trump.

    Same 3 idiots posting Russian propaganda.

    If Trump supported Ukraine, then they would change their stance and post content that supported that..

    Its not the United States responsibility to prevent or take a role in every war between countries from 1945 until the end of time.

    Suggesting that every conflict will turn into a world war absent US involvement is sophomoric and lazy.

    Putin's little b*tch Trump has made it clear that he will blame any country Russia invades with force if they don't do as Putin wants them to, and those killed by Russian forces have only their leader to blame. It's exactly the rhetoric Putin expects from his little puppet on a string, which is, and always has been Trump. The ex KGB officer found out years ago how easy it is to manipulate Trump into being his little puppet. Trump will never blame Putin for any crimes against humanity, any mysterious assassinations, or any wrongdoing or corruption. Never!

    someone used the word "fantasy" in the title of another thread. I think the only fantasy was believing that Ukraine was going to somehow "win" this American-funded proxy war with Russia

    You can use my name.

    Let's talk about that fantasy. Whether or not Ukraine was going to win or not, what do you think of Trump not only caving to Putin, but echoing his point of view and perspective? Does that not alarm you one bit?

    No - I think it is very easy for someone to come into power, blame Ukraine for Russians invasion - threaten to and then cut off aid and selling weapons to Ukraine so that they WILL lose and then say "see they were always going to lose".

    It is what it is - and Biden could have tried being more aggressive with the war when he was in power, and Trump won the election so he gets to dictate policy. However - this idea that Ukraine never could win the war is revisionist history before the dye of history is even dry.

    The whole situation is sad all the way around - but if I were a Ukranian I would not be very happy with the policy of the Trump administration--- but Trump doesn't represent Ukraine.

    So Basically . . .. You don't care.
    If they die . .. . they die?
    If Putin starts putting them in a meatgrinder you could care less?
    If he enslaves the whole population . . .so be it
    You simple don't give a sh*t . . . no humanitarian
    Basically . .. .you are ISOLATIONIST - don't care about any countries or happenings outside of our boarders
    Hamas . . Isreali .. . etc . .. if they die they don't . . . .not your problem???

    and Actually I think Russian having MORE INFLUENCE on the world. . . HURTS US ALOT!

    I think they only pick and choose countries
    If it is . . . certain countries. .. let them bulldoze and war on people
    others they feel they should be protected because they are . . uhm . . .like them

    I didn't realize you were offended by the word "piss" or I would have not used it.

    You do realize that life existed before 1939/Nazi germany? All you guys do is retort with 'But Nazi's!'. Leftist are completely blinded to the 80 years that led up to WWII.

    Ignoring history when it suits you is ... sophomoric and lazy.

    Putin says that he wants to get the USSR band back together. His actions agree.

    Im so confused by this statement.
    Ukraine is on pace to lose 1M of their youth.
    Half of Ukraine is uninhabitable and if the war stopped today, it would take another decade to clean up the munitions.
    Ukraines economy has come to a crawl. Many have left the country and will never return.

    So tell me how Ukraine is going to 'win' this war? They already lost. You're so pre-programmed to hate Russia that your end game is to see Russia punished, regardless if Ukraine loses everything. United States and China are making out like bandits from being arms dealers.

    Its clear none of you give a **** about Ukraine.

    It is in our economic interest for Europe to not be on fire.
