“You’ll never get me to change my mind regarding the waste of tax payer dollars fighting proxy wars against Russia, China or Iran.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Answer:
WE didn’t start those proxy wars you are talking about. The Russia-Hamas-Iran-China-North Korea Alliance started the proxy war against the USA. Thus, we can’t ignore it, it’s technically and politically impossible to do so.
Action means Reaction.
If Antifa gangs regularly attack your neighbors homes, committing arson, rape, plundering and killing many of them... as a Christian do you just sit by in your living-room reading a book while avoiding to call the police (preserving the police budget) and praying that Antifa won’t be reaching your own home...?
According to your logic, as long they don’t reach YOUR house... who cares about what Antifa does to the neighbors...
Trump did in fact initiate the whole process of helping Ukraine with lethal weapons. He REVERSED the previous Obama policies which refused to send ANY weapons at all to Ukraine. Trump often denounced those Obama policies, criticizing him for only sending “pillows and blankets”.
So when it comes to Ukraine, you are clearly supporting the Obama philosophy.
I and supporting the Trump philosophy.
Remember this:
Trump had a long conversation with Mike Johnson days before the 90 billions dollar aid for Israel/Ukraine/Taiwan/ was approved. It happened at Mar-a-Lago.
Johnson got Trump’s go ahead to make this budget go through.
Trump approved those +90 billions.
We shouldn't have been sucked into them then. Our entry only lengthened those wars, draining our economy and resources, and ending the lives of many an American member of the military...all for nothing.
You don't seem to get it, and it's the one thing you've failed to respond to, and that is the billions of unaccounted for cash that has been sent to Ukraine. You keep pointing out that Trump sent weapons. If we had surplus weapons to send, without depleting our own inventory, then I have no problem with it. But if those weapons were taken from our current inventory, then I do have a problem with that, because it weakens our ability to defend ourselves. What you refuse to address is the unlimited tax payer dollars sent, that isn't required to be accounted for on the other end. I don't want any tax payer cash funding a foreign government, or a war we are no part of. Get it now?
