Tell me what we are getting out of supporting Ukraine.

Jesus Christ... is your TDS ****** with ya? When faced with hard question, start crying about Trump.

A world ally and the prevention of Communism gaining an ever larger footprint.
The same reason we've done it in the past. This is not a new concept. Maybe it is to you, but not to our country.

I'm no history buff, but even I know it.

We're not the rest of Europe. We are a world superpower with the strongest economy in the world.

Blah ******* Blah.

Pretty sure they were our ally before hand but please tell me how they support the US.

Blah ******* Blah.

Exactly. Anything that even comes close to resembling a fact or legitimate information about what's going on in the world is just blah blah blah.
Simply because you don't wanna hear it and it proves that your narrative is bullshit.

Stop thinking like a child. Read up on some history. Take a class. Learn about reality.

Try a few of those things, and maybe you won't come up with ridiculous notions like the events of January 6 never happening, or Biden waking up in the morning and setting the price of gasoline for the day.

Shut the **** up stupid... tell me what we are getting back from Ukraine.

To a person with open eyes it looks a whole lot like we are ******* with Putin through another country instead of striking Russia directly... now why would the US do that hmm?

No? No answer on what our return on investment is? Really??

I'll try it in all caps: AN ALLY ON THE WORLD STAGE, AND PREVENTION OF COMMUNISM GAINING A LARGER FOOTPRINT.

I'm starting to think you're actually a fan of communism, and really want to see it grow as much as possible.

Have you ever heard of World War I? World War II? The Korean war? The Vietnam war? Iraq? Desert storm? Afghanistan?

we've been doing it since 1812, and have been involved in 200 interventions since 1950.
Did you take any history classes in school?

That is such a ***** answer. It's like you thought of the most pacified and easy thing you could and just threw it out there.

Do you think we "need" to buy Ukraine to be our "ally" on the "world stage"? Are we so weak as a country now that we need Ukraine to be our buddy? No, Democrats don't do shit like this unless they have something to gain and Ukraine being our buddy isn't it.

OK. So you want the world to think like a child, in the way that you do.

212 years of US history is a "pacified, easy" answer.
Every single government administration between them and now has done it wrong, but you have a full understanding of what should be done, how it should be done, and when it should be done.
But you've been too busy delivering pizzas to become president and implement your plan?

For ***** sake, you can't even answer the simple question of what you would do to "take care of America first", yet you think you're qualified to determine how we should gain allies, how we should help our allies, how we should prevent the spread of communism?

and you still haven't spoken to why Trump was lauded for his actions with North Korea when they were threatening South Korea.
Why was that such a wonderful thing for him to do?

Again, Ukraine was our ally BEFORE the conflict with Russia. Before The Russia and Ukraine thing was there a threat of communism coming to America? The hysterical way you are speaking is if Russia takes Ukraine the world will fall to communism. Still, there is no reason why America is the country that is funding this little adventure when the whole of Europe is doing jack shit.

You're right, I haven't spoken to your little Trump segue because I am talking about The United States, Russia and Ukraine. You know, current ******* events.

Again, you're thinking like a child. What would possess you to assume that Europe would fund another country in order to be an ally of the US?
And, if Ukraine was already an ally of the US, what action could the US possibly take to maintain that relationship? Do you think maybe the US helping them fight a war could be part of that relationship?
If we are allies with a country, and we do nothing to help them when it's needed, then what's the point of being allies?

The question about Trump was not a segue. It was a lateral tangent, asking fir an apples-to-apples comparison.

You cried and probably 100 posts that I just have hatred in my heart for Trump with no reason, even though I can point out every single thing there is that I dislike about the man.
yet here you are, screaming that Biden is an ******* and a horrible president when he is doing the exact thing that Trump did when he was president.
You're basically showing that your projecting with your complaints about my hatred of Trump and that you are actually the one who has nothing but hatred in your heart even when you can't back up that hatred with valid reasons.

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

Though it would be safe to assume you think GDP is a bullshit indicator of anything, your complaint about Europe and other countries not providing enough help to the Ukraine is pretty much unfounded.

We aren't even talking about Trump but you can't keep his name out of your mouth. It is a segue. Are we the only ally to Ukraine? No, there are countries all around them but the Biden admin decided to dump money and military into them. The Biden admin is nothing but crook and they aren't doing this out of the kindness of their hearts or for Ukraine to be our ******* buddy on the world stage you clown. They made a deal for something, some kind of profit. A profit that doesn't benefit United States citizens. Especially the half of us that are "garbage".

It's just Ukraine... not "the" Ukraine.

Also... No shit. Their GDP is probably far less then ours huh. Dumbass. More GDP doesn't mean more money.

Lots of reasons to want Ukraine under Western influence. Lithium deposits, wheat, Uranium, Iron, natural gas.

All the reasons Rob is dodging. Because we are such humanitarians.

I will say this... the conversations, though laced with insults, are doing better than in the past.
