    The west can spend a few millions to save Ukraine or pony up trillions to try to save Finland, Poland and several other small NATO countries.
    If Ukraine falls US status and power will go with it. Of course Putin emboldened because he absolutely knows he has a friend in the Republican party.

      That friend is the one who armed the Ukrainians.

      Before Trump, Ukrainian was not getting weapons from the United States. Trump gave them the javelin which was critical during the first offensive.

      Now second term I have no clue what he’ll do but by arming them, he gave Ukraine a fighting chance.

        I mean you don’t have to guess since he said it himself what he’ll do, and that is by letting Putin do whatever he wants in Eastern Europe :)

              Trump didn’t make the claim about Ukraine. Maybe you are lot aware, Ukraine isn’t part of NATO

                Oh, yeah, fair, my bad. Trump wouldn’t intervene to protect countries in the military alliance his country is a part of, BUT he will DEFINITELY intervene to help Ukraine.
