Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said on this week’s broadcast on “Fox News Sunday” that Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) aid package that included for Ukraine would not have passed the House without help from former President Donald Trump.
Graham said, “The Ukrainian military, with our help, has killed about 50% of the combat power of the Russians. This is the year of more. They’re going to have more weapons, but we also want them to have new weapons, ATACMS to knock the bride down between Crimea and Russia. They are going to have F-16s. So, this idea give up on Ukraine makes the world safer, if you pull the plug on Ukraine cause you don’t have enough capability. There goes Taiwan.”

The thing is, most people here want Trump to be in their own image, not realizing that above all Trump is a pragmatist.
I probably agree with Trump about 50% of the time, which frankly in my book, is pretty good.

"They’ve just been given more F-16s than they had MiG-29s and Su-27s"
Day 5 of no F-16 delivery [08-29-2023], contrary to the hopium posted by some Ukie cheerleaders.

Day 241 of no F-16 deliveries...
This is the black flag for flying jihadis.
That’s fair and a reasonable take on it. That said, this lame manipulation attempt by Linda is just insulting.
The top global financial institutions see it fine. In fact they helped create it with an agenda to own us through debt.
They are playing us like a fiddle.
A replacement missile is on the way.
“But the US military plans to soon begin fielding a more capable replacement, the Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), within the next two years. Indeed, deliveries of PrSM Increment 1 could begin as early as 2024. As the US Army’s top procurement official said in September, the PrSM’s imminent arrival could “make it less risky from a readiness standpoint to provide some number” of ATACMS to Ukraine.”
I thought I read that Blackrock is already planning on cashing in when we the people are forced to rebuild Ukraine.
However I saw videos of Ukraine the other day and it looked a whole lot better than say Philly, or Oakland.
Linda’s in a panic.
When Ukraine falls, he’ll have to find another war for his “ pals at the Pentagon “.
I don’t want to see any invitations to Mar-O-Lago for Graham unless it’s for a royal reaming out.
Trump can’t afford to split with any Republican Senator. If he is re-elected next November, he’ll need every single Republican vote to have any chance at confirming his cabinet secretaries, military leaders, and judges.
Linda is lying again. Trump just said if you’re gonna give Ukraine money it should at least be in the firm of a loan.
I believe that Johnson was summoned to Mar A Lago to discuss "The Art of the Deal". And I believe that Johnson divided the the deals into 3 or 4 phases...to let everyone who wishes....hang themselves.
There would be plenty of both for and against Ukraine...That's not on Johnson...that's on the individual house rep...
But Israel...that's the deal that has to go through...now...and it did.
It also proved that the majority wanted Ukraine funded.
And that it's all about getting the Whitehouse and Senate and House in 2024.
The loan component can be repealed by Biden after the election.
Do you see another way to solve the SS problem? Look , I am no fan of Grahams but he’s right in that SS benefits will be means tested and SS tax will rise. At this point there is no other option.
Correct. Which is why Trump will lose the election now.
.
“Can”
That’s like saying he ‘can’ pardon Hunter.
It’s the plan, and Ukraine can’t pay anything back.
Is a way to mislead the rubes by Johnson and Fox News.
Lindsey needs to eat a box of Ex-Lax.
They will be asking for another 60 billion by December.
