“The GOP is playing with fire by blocking aid to Ukraine, an act the majority of them know is in our national interest. Our allies and partners won’t forget this short-sided act. Neither will historians. “Who lost Ukraine” will be a GOP legacy.” Michael McFaul

  1. And when you play with fire?? You get burned…

    Garry Kasparov uses the same metaphor of fire with devastating accuracy:

    “The house is on fire, Trump is running around with a box of matches, and the GOP demands to know who called the fire department.”

    And Kasparov said it in 2017!!!

    Only more true every day: the GOP must stop burning down America and the flourishing of freedom everywhere by blocking Ukrainian aid.

    Brilliant, must read analysis on why everything for freedom is at stake in winning in Ukraine:

  2. Remember when Republicans had the trifecta presidency-house-senate? They had the most ideal opportunity to resolve the border issue and they refused to resolve the border issues. Ukraine is being held hostage.

  4. Michael McFaul explains further why the GOP must wake up to changing their minds and funding full victory in Ukraine:

    “Blocking aid to Ukraine means you are pro-Russia, pro-China and pro-Iran.”

    “They are close allies in all but name! Helping one is helping all.”

    “We must act as strategically as they do.”

    “In Russia, they are laughing at us right now…As Olga Skabeeva said, “Well done, Republicans! They’re standing firm! That’s good for us.”

    “If Putin’s team is cheering for you, maybe it is time to rethink your actions.”

  5. The GOP has given the greenlight to Imperialistic Autocrats the world over. The United States of America disarmed Ukraine with a promise to defend it if attacked. The betrayal of Ukraine will not be forgiven or forgotten. The blood soaked Republican party must be voted out across the nation. It must be dissolved. I have no problem with a 2 party system as long as sanity is involved. This current political climate is a nightmare to observe.

  6. The US can not complain if the EU becomes a political bloc with huge amount of hard power because of US short sightedness. You guys literally asked for this.

  7. Never thought my country and former party would become this asinine.

    Forget even the just cause of supporting the establishment of western democracy in a former Soviet state. Even forget supporting the defense of sovereign state borders which is the bedrock of our rules based order.

    We have never been presented with an opportunity to severely degrade one of our greatest adversary’s military, national morale and economy so cheaply before in dollars and citizens as this. Never. Something like 5% of our defense budget and no soldier deaths. It’s the worst kind of security negligence.

  8. Lol, USA is giving every single one of their allies a lesson they’ll not soon forget, for absolutely no reason at all.

    So the damage is already done.

  9. It goes beyond hurting Ukraine at this point. The MAGA led GOP are aiding the interests of the Russian, Chinese, N.K., and Iranian axis. Never let them forget that. That’s who they are. That’s what they’re doing.

  10. 100% this is ridiculous. Helping Ukraine shows the world America’s resolve. Shows our friends we go all the way all the time.
    The current GOP is anti-American. Anti-Cowboy. The world needs an honorable Cowboy. We the people, need our United States of America to BE a Honorable Cowboy.
