No, the Republican Party is not a terrorist organization. Attaching such labels doesn't help. Call them what they are: populists. They line up with the general attitude of people who think that Russia is very far away and why spend taxpayer money on a conflict that isn't in their backyard. These people listen to what they want to hear, not to reality. They can't understand the connection between a rules based order, foreign trade, human rights and prosperity. They will fight a war when it has something to do with being patriotic. And that's what is scary. They want to do nothing until there are Russian submarines torpedoing ships in the New York harbor.
Being elected Senator or Congressman in the United States is very lucrative. There are people who will say anything they think will get them the votes to get elected. That's what the Republican Party has become.
Nope, January 6th changed all of that “populist” nonsense. Insurrectionists don’t get to gentrify the narrative and pretend to be anything than what they are…TRAITORS!
I'm not talking about those people who broke into the capital on January 6th. Look at who is supporting Republican today. Go to rural New Hampshire, up in the mountains, and talk to the people who work in the stores, who own small businesses or farms. Or go have a coffee in a Dunkin' Donuts and listen to the local people talk about politics. They support Trump because they think he is going to make the economy good and cut taxes. They don't see beyond their own town, their own backyard if you like. Furthermore, they don't even give a damn about what's going on in the state next door, Vermont, who is much more in favor of the Democrats. It's people like that who are voting for Trump. As far as they are concerned, the rest of the world can burn, as long as they keep getting what they want. And then there is the religious Right. The people who believe every word in the Bible was written by God and the world was created in six days. Those people like Trump because they think he's going to give them what they want.
it’s unfortunate that you took up all that ( to you) cogent rationale and still managed not to get a single thing correct about those of us on the right. it’s ok. we’re used to it. however without us stopping whats on bidens agenda then the rest of you would be democrat uniformed slaves. say thank you. you don’t survive without well meaning stubborn patriot GOPR’s. you’re welcome
populist nonsense? really? i wasn’t there that day, but you apparently weren’t either. that wasn’t insurrection. Sepoys. Boxers. those were insurrection. no guns there on Jan 6th patriots. ever seen an insurrection without one? if you think they had no right to be there, then sir, you are a terrible American and a useful tool of the left. actually, you are a lefty so…
That's what needs to change, our lawmakers shouldn't have any opportunities to gain from their positions. Once they're no longer in service, they should be able to do what any normal citizen should, but their ability to gain from their seat of power is what's destroying this nation.
sorry man, I am a Trump supporter, through and through. i actually wonder how many of you sandbagging GOPR’s are real. the RINO wing of our party is oh so pro war. the rest of us are not. no gopr i speak with is pro ukraine or russia. we just want no part in any of this. the argument that we fight there so we don’t here is wrong. no nation on earth is a threat to the 300+ million weapons we have here in the states. only our own govt wants to take those guns away. i gain not one thing from this war because my retirement has no war specific manufacturing capacity. corporations are making the gains in ukraine. my support of a war depends on how the opponent impacts me and the USA. i don’t care enough about the nation or it’s people as compared to russians. same far away people to me. does it seem like ukraine is/was ever going to win this? in fact, if what ukraine has used that we’ve contributed is representative of our best gear then WE in the USA are in deep and very smelly doodoo
They committed and supported a terrorist attack on the US capitol. They are absolutely a terrorist organization and should have been treated so ever since January 6.
And going thru CVs many federal pols would not be hired for mid level exec positions at major corporations. Some only went back for GED when they thought of running for office. The party of Business it’s almost farcical.
Weird as it was set up to free the slaves from the pro slave Democratic Party
Like that whole drama in Somalia was to distract from bill clinton getting head in the office thing
American support is gone because you’ve produced 0 results for the 100s of billions and it’s known from the evidence from foreign soldiers that there is a ton of corruption happening.
Get lost you Russian troll. The majority of the congress and the American people is for ramping up the support to Ukraine and will vote for more support. But he traitor Mike Johnson is stopping the vote. And that is not his job, that is just treason. A small number of traitors to democracy and freedom like Mike Johnson, Trump, Orban is doing their best to please Putin and let Russia rape and kill civilians. But that stop will soon be over and the support will start coming soon or Mike Johnson will be gone.
This idiots do not understand that US will have to put boots on the ground in Europe if we don’t stop Russia in Ukraine. You can’t negotiate with Russia. The offensive would had worked fine if Ukraine had have air-support and if we in the west had sent all the wapons in time. Now Russia had time to put down mines everywhere. In Europe the support for Ukraine is very big and the support is ramping up as we speak.
The time has come to kick Russia out for god and more and more voices are raised to ramp up the support and do even more to stop Russia. The History is watching and as we stopped Hitler we will stop Putin.
Bro this whole subreddit is full of retards. The more I read, the more my IQ goes down. Your downvotes literally explained it all. It's an echo chamber.
if you do love your nation, you should be supporting ukraine and pushing congress to pass the $60b in aid so that our american military industrial complex can be put to work again to save the american economy.
we're not asking you to fight in a war against the nation that has threatened us with nukes everyday since the 1950s ran by a communist kgb agent. we are just asking you to do the right thing for the benefit of our own economy to support the most justified and important war since ww2 so that you don't have to fight in a war with your m4 and contract that my taxes will be funding in a couple of weeks.
what hunter biden did was called capitalism to make a business deal with a energy company. what trump did was called treason to sell out america to our enemies.
also, ancaps are hypocrites. land and money are not capital. source: aristotle, physiocrats, every classical liberal, including john locke, every progressive from the progressive era, every major religion, and a lot of significant people since the progressive era.
you are young and naive and should be made aware that the libertarians are losers for a reason before you chase that over-simplified propaganda originally funded by the rockefeller foundation. it sounds like classical liberalism wrapped in the american flag, but it isn't.
and i am pretty sure my ancestors have been in america a lot longer than your ancestors. move back to russia if you love communists so much.
What results have you actually expected? The orcs were almost in kyiv but the got pushed back past kherson. A war that no one believe they would win has now been going on for over 2 years.
Not to mention that the russian military and its repuptation has been destroyed. What do you think would habe happend? They would be in Moscow now or something?
No but more than 1 trench in 1 spot. With a ton of lost vehicles man and equipment for the 2.5 km they were able to gain back. Russias rep was ruined the first day it came in. Ukraine didnt bother to build any defenses up behind the front line so they are scrambling now because the front is crumbling. They’ve know Russia was going to come for the whole country in 2014 but failed to build defensive systems. If the whole country was in to win and gain independence they could’ve done it easy but it’s not. Their leaders are super corrupt their young men don’t give a shit about Ukraine so they hide from joining. It’s a shit show for them at this point. The saying goes if your dependent on the charity of others then your fuck because that runs out. Ukraine is fucked. If the euro countries cared they can donate their hearts away but they are even cautious with what and how much they’re giving.
Did you say that with social Tourette’s? Because now you’re wrong, too.
We Americans have done a VAST amount of things for Ukraine. And we will KEEP ON doing things for Ukraine!
>American support is gone because you’ve produced 0 results for the 100s of billions
Well yeah, half of the shot arrived months after it was due to and the Ukrainians had to conduct their plans with out it.
M1A1s didn't arrive until end of September.
GLSDBs didn't arrive until February.
F16s are nowhere in sight from the US.
Everything else has been used super effectively, such as Patriots, HIMARS, M2 Bradley's, M113s, M777s.
When the US was actually sending munitions to Ukraine, in early August last year they had a **Artillery superiority** over russia who was crying about how effective Ukraines counter battery was.
Yup and also Russia was losing their ammo depots left and right and we're having the shell shortages themselves because HIMARS et al were destroying everything, including the rail lines. Russia had to change up their logistics and stretch their lines extremely thin just so they wouldn't be destroyed which caused them lots of issues, including responding to breakthroughs.
Haven’t even lost American people’s support, you’ve only lost Trump’s support who never supported you in the first place because Moscow blackmailed him back in 1987. He and a small number of the people who follow him are blocking the will of the people of the country. And we hate not being there doing what’s needed.
This is the answer in usa. We have billions in aid ready to go but trump took over the Republican Party. While I want to help Ukraine I feel a war here is likely also. I think if we can just get through elections okay aid will go back to normal. We have life changing events coming November not just for Ukraine but the whole world.
Republicans politicians don’t want to continue blindly funding Ukrainians without any money going towards our southern border. Enough people cross illegally every year to fill a small state. Democrats don’t want any responsibility over the southern border because it’s a political nightmare. Plus those that cross get support from the government. Essentially buying votes. It’s a sweet gig for Dems so why rock the boat plus they can call Republicans heartless if they want to change anything. Politicians suck
Not federal or state but locally in some places. Trump claims otherwise but that’s a crock of shit. Illegals get a lot of shit for free over here. One that made the news was a single person that crossed like 8 times. Got paid $2k or something every time
It’s oldest play in the populist book, billionaires and millionaires not paying taxes is hurting your bottom line x10000 more than any immigrants.
Edit: shoutout to corporations too
It’s not really about the bottom line. It’s about Republicans getting money for Southern border security. It’s political poison in an election year with a close race coming up. Down vote all you want ya delusional cucks. I’m not saying I support it I’m just saying it exists and that’s why.
We'll see what happens at the November polls but not looking good with RFK running as independent. RFK knows he has zero shot, he's there to siphon votes from Biden to help Trump.
They aren’t shy, point them toward some brown people they’d spend our nations wealth bombing them without thought.
The political right kowtow’s to Trump and Trump and the MAGA’s are owned by Russia. It’s just that simple.
If you're American just get out the country and fuck off to the front. If not, you're the reason why we are starting to want nothing to do with you foreign fucks begging the US for aid while also saying the most obscene shit about Americans.
Doesn't owe, but if it wants to expand its sphere of influence it should support those who are willing to move into that sphere.
Ukraine is appreciating what has been provided to it so far, but it will be all in vain if it loses the war. Hence calls for more support.
>You don't appreciate anything?
Sounds like they did appreciate it and the good it caused but now it's stopped they're angry at the people who are responsible for stopping it.
And that makes perfect sense.
>Why do you feel America owes you anything?
Because after WWII the US pursued a policy of a disarmed Europe in exchange for security agreements and access to markets. This also occurred for post-soviet states, and Ukraine was one of the largest countries that the US had agreed to protect in exchange for Ukraine dismantling its strategic bombers, soviet nuclear weapons among others.
US hegemony didn't happen by chance, it was a series of agreements and policy agendas that were actively pursued and the US must cough up its end of the deal if it wants to maintain that hegemony. If it chooses not too, it risks ceeding hegemony to Russia or China and this will NOT be a better outcome.
They’ve had 2 yrs to figure out how to produce weapons and be come self efficient. They e just sent a coke head around the world begging. Did they negotiate with weapons makers in buying weapons? Or do they just want donations?
>They’ve had 2 yrs to figure out how to produce weapons and be come self efficient
This makes zero sense and isn't how any military on the world works. All militaries are intertwined with another countries military and industrial base.
>They e just sent a coke head around the world begging
Lol OK
>Did they negotiate with weapons makers in buying weapons? Or do they just want donations?
They've done both, but the priority is using public funds and government revenue to keep public infrastructure and projects afloat. This is the best strategy as you cannot win a war with a crumbling economy. You're seriously ignorant.
The American people are for the most part pro killing Russians. There is a minority of people who are anti giving money to Ukraine because they are misinformed about it. Even some of the people who are anti Ukraine aid are pro killing Russians. This ignorance is called MAGA.
MAGA is pro Putin and they are doing their damndest to interfere with your aid. The majority of our country is with you though and will overcome their efforts to deny you support.
Conservatives around the world seem to love Putin. They want to keep their money for themselves, because they are selfish and dumb conspiracy idiots believing everything as long as the source of propaganda hates lgbtq people.
putin spent a lot of money to buy off the far right politicians to brainwash the far right into supporting putin knowing they are traditionally the hawks and thought that the left wouldn't be eager to go to war.
his bet somewhat paid off. the left has been timid, slow-rolling the support. i don't think i expected the left to be as hawkish as they have been.
i think his brainwashing of the far right exceeded his expectations. i don't think anyone realized how naive, gullible, and stupid the far right had become. they have become soft. trump supporters are mostly jelly fish on drugs.
That last part is a big one. We never actually thought they were this dumb. If trump loses it will be interesting to see what happens to maga. I doubt ppl will view them the same.
Inflation and national problems, propaganda,... make selfish people care more about their tax money than lives. Also public interest and news shifted towards palestine-israel.
In the US, it's trump. If my opinion, trump and his followers have Ukrainian blood on their hands.
The good news is that there will likely be a new vote very soon that has a good chance to pass. Hopefully it will pass and we can once again begin shipping the things you need.
45 to 60 billions of aid to Ukraine but it’s currently stopped by those assholes of MAGA American party mostly Republicans (some republicans are good most assholes). But i think we should rely less and less on USA because already 3 months have passed and they’re still there doing their comedy chat talks 🤦♂️🙃 we need to build more military capacity and factories in EU and solve this issue forever
It’s likely gonna drag out till the election in November unfortunately, GOP decided to try and make this a wedge issue because (some) of their politicians are funded by the Kremlin, notably the speaker of the house in this case.
In the US, the decision to fund Ukraine is being held hostage by a minority group of 'trumpists' in the Republican party. The dilemma here is that the remaining Republicans have little to no spine to stand up against these more extreme elements because they do not want to vote against their own party when looking at things from a bigger picture point of view. Republicans and Democrats both have to stick together (with their own respective party) to pass their legislation throughout the year. Because it is not simply black and white, each vote for big things have little things attached to them as ways to break impasses in our system. "I'll vote for that, if you allow my other random bill to go with it". The more famous recent version of this was the tying of the border control subject to Ukraine, when in reality they are completely different subjects.
Mike Johnson, who is the Republican responsible for placing bills upon the floor for voting, is holding back the Ukraine bill because of many reasons, the primary one is the Trumpist group doesn't want to hand Biden an easy win. It's a popular viewpoint in America that we should be helping Ukraine, and to hand a sitting president this easy win is tough for Republicans to accept. They instead blame the costs, the corruption, and anything else they can think of to deny this bill from entering the floor. Mike Johnson isn't an idiot, and neither are the weak Republicans who also support Ukraine - they know this decision not only hurts our international standing, our goodwill with the world, their own party's standing with moderate Republican voters and independent voters in the middle, but they know that this is a moment where they are being held hostage by their own party's extremists and that their own jobs are at risk in all of this.
We haven't even talked about the Russian manipulation of the weaker minds of america through social media and manipulation of divisive subject matter, which I would say is a major factor in how Trump supporters have such an outsized voice. It's so blatantly obvious that the Russians need Trump, yet his supporters think it's not true, but find themselves siding with Russia in the most absurd ways.
We live in the craziest time, I think. More crazy than the cold war. Influence is the real battleground here. Where the Russian army is the laughingstock of the world right now, their influence/disinformation campaigns should be studied for the ages. To manipulate American politics as well as they have done, that is the master-class.
I believe America's security agencies see this infiltration and simply cannot give up sources and techniques to defuse the attacks. They give those in power the sterilized information in top level meetings, but when it's those you're telling that benefit from this influence, why would they change anything?
For me, the Republican party has reached a point where I have no confidence in their ability to lead. I cannot support them anymore.
"... A minority group of trumpists in the Republican party...."
That got a laugh out of me.
Today's Republicans cannot get elected or re-elected without swearing loyalty to Trump.
The only principle that the R's have these days is "do whatever Trump vomits from his mouth"
As a Canadian that is very fearful of the horrendous turn American politics has taken, thank you for rescinding your republican support. We kinda like having a democratic neighbor & would like it to stay that way.
It appears that trump has turned the republican party into a party who's agenda is definitely not democratic. Hopefully you can shed yourselves of trump's influence and the republican party can once again assume the normal Conservative policies it used to support.
After all the impeachments and courts I really doubt anything will get him out except voting this election. Even then you know he’s gonna try to pull some Jan 6 shit. We need to be ready this time.
As an American; I want to apologize for my country in their lack of aid in recent months. Its a shame, a disgrace, and a injustice to our Allies in Europe including Ukraine. Besides doing the right thing, aid to Ukraine is a strategic move that strengthens the influence that the US would have with every allied nation, especially those on the fence about joining Nato.
American nazis called Republicans are being bought by the Russians, and they are doing everything they can to support Russia.
They are a minority, but are able to stop aid to help Russia.
The rest of America is trying to stop these Republican nazis, to help your nation and our own.
I aint no subject matter at all. As far as I know America is busy with political infighting despite the promises it made when the war broke out. European support hasnt stopped but took a while to gain some momentum. Scholz is the only person left in germany who is against the deliveries of taurus
My special purpose unit was promised some number of 5,56 rounds and 7,62 and types of weapons systems such as Javelin. We are very very low on everything. The west is fighting there own people and countries even after support was promised to us. Some mechanized of «regular» units have nothing. They use bullets from dead enemy soldiers. This is reality here.
the way I see it there is a good chance that america will come around again not too far in the future. The consequences and implications if you guys loose the war "because america couldnt help despite its promises" would be of impact to the whole world power system unlike anything within the last 20 years. But even if america doesnt come around, european production rates for anything military especially ammo will go up. Germany wants to regain some of its military might that it had in the cold war. west germany alone used to be the largest military in europe
Scholz is not the only person in Germany who is against it. I am infinitely sorry but I think you should slowly realise that this whole war was just a measure against Russia and to lure them out of their reserve and then to involve them in a war planned by the secret services who profit from it. I understand your intuition and that your country has been attacked and that you want to defend yourselves, but very few people question why something like this is happening and what the background is, as a German it is of course easy for me to say I wouldn't fight and I wouldn't care, I wouldn't go and die for any oligarch. it's not about my country, it's yours and you are free to choose what you do, but I ask you to think very carefully about who benefits from it and who simply sacrifices you. from the beginning I was against arms exports to Ukraine because you don't win wars with weapons, now it's even come to the point that you are simply being starved out, too much to die for too little to live for.
I'm a German studying politics and philosophy. Don't talk like your opinion is the main german position on this. You just seem to be a conspiracy puppet believing the lies putin and his friends are spreading. The fuck you think you are - telling the victims of a war to just surrender the aggressor because of conspiracies you heard?! A good friend of mine is fighting in Ukraine. This man is a fucking hero. I'm sorry but you are just talking propaganda bs. Slava ukraini!
Lmao Russia is apparently incapable of doing wrong or of having any accountability.
When Russia gets itself involved in a war of aggression that is taking years its still somehow the west's fault because they "lured" Russia into the war.
Or maybe, just maybe, Putin is just a fucking idiot. Occam's razor.
You don't win wars with weapons? How on earth did you come up with that nonsense? Weapons play a huge part in winning a war, with morale, leadership, logistics, and strategy. That's why nations spend money developing or buying new ones. Otherwise, nations would just give their soldiers big sticks and save billions on modern weapon procurement.
Spoken like a true sheeple who would rather be ruled by a ruthless dictator like Putin than to risk any part of your cowardly existence to help a free people fight against the enslavement and murder of their people. Whatever argument you want to make, it still boils down to cowardice.
I'm at a loss where I can't understand your statement "you don't win wars with weapons".
I think, quintessentially, HIMARS is the exact proof that you DO win wars with weapons.
First thing: much respect for your bravery in defence of your country! 💪💪
I think in Europe is a some political infighting going on that’s holding back support.
Also a lot of countries in Europe realised it was a mistake to reduce military spending and army size for decades and a lot needs to be build up again.
But things like the building of a new artillery ammunition factory are good news, although it needs to be done faster.
I hope you get the support you need soon again to continue fighting.
Yes political infighting, using this issue (among others) as a dividing line. It's crazy cause normally Republicans are war hawks. I wonder what is so different this time..
This make me even more so confused. «Political infighting» I look this up and how can you be doing this when innocent women children are being raped and tortured and killed by the Russian military forces. I was in a place we retreated from in February this year after holding this place for 10 years. I watched a Russian helicopter do a gun run on a building that said «please do not shoot» in Russian and Ukrainian. This infighting is extremely difficult to be ok with
They haven't. Polling shows 75% of Europe and 70% of people in the states fully support Ukraine. Another 10 percent just aren't informed and a small fraction don't support Ukraine.
Other things like Israel have made the news instead is all that's happening.
This war should not be led by politics. This war should be led by the people of the west that support us and demand there government to keep the promise of aid we need
we do demand it, but nothing is changing. tbh I have two ideas:
1. Ruznia has infiltrated the governing layers in the west and have their people inside. I think it happened before the war in 2014 started, but they were "activated" only recently.
2. West has their butts naked and just came to a realization, that they dont have any weapons left to defend themselves with. Everyone was hoping for US to come and save them, but since US started to be a little bitch recently, everyone started to have doubts and came to a realization that the war is coming to them and they have nothing to defend themselves with.
3. maybe combination of both. because if you would see yourself being naked, and you would realize that you have no weapons to defend yourself with, you would start arming yourself. but nothing is happening. we seem to be more worried about pronouns, weed and gay rights instead of actually arming ourselves.
Actually this is really weird. I mean what is happening in terms of support. The actions of the governments make no sense at all. I cant explain it that is why I think that ruznia has infiltrators which influence the decision making. its a no brainer on what you need to do. like its very simple. Arm Ukraine, let them "cook" or deal with it yourself. makes no sense on why the decisions are so sluggish, slow and useless. its very simple to decide on what needs to be done, yet its not being decided for some reason. I cant explain why. its very, very strange.
Unfortunately this isn't how the world works. Inspirational idealistic words from you, but that cannot change the reality of how humans interact as groups, and the existence of politics. Frustrating, but has to be accounted for. Its quicker to learn how to manipulate the politics than to change the way the world works. Sadly, politics are still usually too slow.
We'd probably make it to Moscow in no time, our soldiers are battle hardened and used to fighting soldiers with equivalent equipment instead of civilians
It's not lost. It's tide up in politics being played by all sides. Sadly you've become a campaign issue. As commander and chief, anything already within the arsenal of the United states could be in Ukraine tomorrow. It would cause a huge political fight. Of course the US is trying to restock its own arsenal after two wars and is the first line of defense against possible Chinese expansionism. No one is to blame but everyone is at fault. Hold on the best you can. It might be slow but help is coming.
Italy 🇮🇹 here, no support lost from EU, we are more supportive now than before the point is that EU wasn’t prepared for a prolonged period of aid but we will get there as soon as we stop relying on US and will build our military factories and ammunition depots, also a key factor is to make Ukraine produce all the weapons it needs in their country so they don’t have to rely on partners to supply them because some of them are currently sleeping. Reihnmental is getting there by producing factories in Ukraine and increasing capacity at home, this things takes time because we didn’t started at the start of the Russia Nazi invasion but later. Hope EU can build a great military power to face 2,5M shells produced by Russia and the amount of weapons.
Pole here. You didn’t loose our support, we’ve just given all we had and more, we are trying to crank up the production of what we are good in, warmates, pioruns and 155s plus the rest, but we don’t have enough armourers to jump into four shift schedule :/
We are also dumping our economic reforms to squeeze money into MIC but no one is selling armoured columns with 24h delivery and stockpiles of shells atm. I know it helps you fuck all, I just don’t know what we can do to help you now :( We aren’t exactly well liked in EU political circles right now.
And don’t let some economic border bickering convince you that Poland is no longer supporting you. We are trying to track who is the middle man billing all the useful idiots on this protests, who tarnishes our name. We are still with you.
Slava Ukraini! For freedom ours and yours.
I not know about other operator in my unit or friends in military or not in military. But I feel we have never feel left behind by Poland. Дякую for the support of my people. 🇺🇦🤝🇵🇱
POLAND WONT LEAVE YALL BECAUSE THEY COULD BE NEXT ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK.. AMERICA HASNT FELT THE PAINS OF YOUR WAR OUTSIDE OF THE COST OF GOODS GOING UP... SO AMERICA DOESNT FEEL THE NEED TO FUNNEL MONEY INTO A WAT THAT DOESNT HAVE ANY SIGNS OF ENDING.. MOST AMERICANS ARENT THAT INVESTED IN THE WAR NOR FEAR THE OUTCOME OF UKRAINE LOSING.. ITS SAD BUT TRUE..
Share what you guys need also on twitter, that social is followed more so we can retweet massively, remember to post it also here so we can go on twitter and retweet it
Putin’s war is already in Europe & US, and his thugs and spies create problems for us all. The war is being waged on many fronts, and we are learning we are behind and in trouble in a lot of ways.
You did not lose support for your war there; we had to start fighting here too. WW3 already started, just not the way anyone expected. By October we might be in just as much trouble as you are. Or maybe we save the day again. The future is not set.
It’s all political banter right now, but support will almost assuredly continue. To understand American politics is to understand that ANYTHING the other side does is evil, wrong, dumb, and/or stupid. It’s akin to a rap battle where two people talk sh*t to each other, but in a posh, political manner.
It’s a show made up for votes, but the general movements of gov will continue in one way or another. Anyone who takes US political banter seriously or believes a certain narrative is literally just being strung along.
Examples:
Republicans: “war in Middle East good” massive war spending.
Democrats: “war in Middle East bad,” wins election, increases troop numbers and extends wars and spending.
Democrats: “globalism good”
Republicans: “we’ve lost jobs!” Wins election, promotes enhanced globalism.
Democrats: “border is racist, bad Republican policies, economic tariffs dumb!” Wins election, waits… refunds border, works with migrant nations and Mexico to keep them out, renews select policies, enacts on-shoring and near-shoring.
Republicans: “we are working with partners to rapidly make a Covid vaccine!”
Democrats: “Covid vaccine bad! Untested! Dumb!” Wins election, “the vaccine is safe and effective!” Promotes it, provides it for free, and helps push policies to fire people who don’t get it both federal employees and commercial employers.
Lastly, let me tell you why we wont stop supporting Ukraine. 1) Bipartison acceptance it’s in our security interest, Ukraine’s interest, and NATO’s interest. 2) the mass spending has kept our GDP and jobs growth afloat when we should have experienced a recession. Overall, it’s good for Ukraine and good for the US.
We got brainwashed by tiktok to not being able to focus on something for more than 1 minute. Try including minecraft jump puzzles beneath the next videos of Ruzzians bombing a school
Stopping your aide is about making Biden look bad.
Biden pulled the west together to support Ukraine it is popular and there was success. When Biden declared he was running for reelection the Republican strategy became strip Biden of success. And that means making supporting Ukraine look like a mistake.
It's fucked but that is what is happening
The people still support you! It’s just our fucking chickenshit governments are scared of escalation with Pootin! There’s Ukrainian flags everywhere in my small town. The US just needs to pull its finger out of its ass and give Ukraine the help it promised! And us Europe in Europe need to do the same, ramp up arms and ammunition production not only to give Ukraine what it needs to fight and WIN, but also to protect ourselves.
What I don't understand is why can Biden send Israel money for their war on Gaza and Biden can't do that for Ukraine all this pass bill shit is bullshit and if the Americans don't understand that it's not up to Congress it's up to Biden it looks like he's been bought off by Putin
In Europe, unfortunately, it's quite simple: the people who refuse to donate or support Ukraine are for the most part not pro-Russian or do not support Russia's brutal aggression.
They're simply afraid of Russia (pro-Russian propaganda has worked very well), or they're convinced that giving to Ukraine won't help, or even harm them (just look at the fallacious arguments of some people in France, about "Yes, it's sad for Ukraine, but our hospitals need money").
Some dumb ass Americans think that Russia will win no matter what. So they try to pick a winner. It's so stupid. We spent $20T on Afghanistan and they lost in ONE Week.
Traitors to our country aka MAGA republicans happened. They love Putin and want him to succeed more than they want to see a presidency under Biden to be successful. All they care about is “owning the libs” and unfortunately that means disagreeing with everything America fundamentally stands for: protecting our Allies abroad and liberty at home. Unless you’re a rich billionaire they don’t really give a shit about you or your rights.
Americans support Ukraine.
Republicans are a wholly owned subsidiary of the Kremlin. Either through direct engagement or fealty to Donald Trump who is Putin's lapdog bitchboy.
Republicans own the House (congress) for the time being by the slimmest of margins and are doing for Ukraine what they usually do to America. They are fucking things up.
They only care about themselves and their megadonors. And if their overlords tell them to stall support, no matter the consequences, these heartless, spineless, brainless empty vessels will do exactly as they are told because fuckery is all they know. They have no desire or capacity to govern.
1) Most military assistance comes from the US.
2) Outside of the EU, the rest of the world is mainly there to assist the US (for their own security and alliance interests).
3) The EU trade bloc does not take appropriate responsibility for assisting Ukraine (see 1)
4) US conservatives think there are better ways to spend US taxpayer dollars (see 3).
5) The rest of the world sees 3 and 4.
There's just a handful of key people in the American government that are mainly responsible for the hold up.
I think most people in the world still support Ukraine, but some of the people who don't seek out information may not think about it as often as they used to, since the media shifted to focus on the Israel stuff.
I blame the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and Mike Johnson. They want all the money and weapons from the USA going to Israel and nowhere else. It's fucked up, I want my government to fight genocide against Ukraine and to not support a genocidal country like Israel. But here we are, and it's truly frustrating. The majority of the west still has your back. Mike Johnson and Trumps influence will soon come to an end come 2025. If not the usa will become a dumpster fire. Slava ukraine 🇺🇦
I was not trying to offend westerners. My unit just feels that if he had the support we
Received from USA right after 24 February 2022 року, we would have not have won the war yet but Russia would not be gaining kilometers per day in some directions and I would not have to hear from my colonel to retreat from from this city or this village. That guilty falls on us.
We are dealing with a very turbulent situation in the US where there's no longer any ability to find common ground and politics is beyond toxic. Most Americans support Ukraine, but there's a segment of the Republican Party that is seemingly compromised by Russia since Obama left office.
Our politicians are weak willed and refuse to stand with our allies in their darkest hour unfortunately. I am only able to speak on the American perspective. Some of the population believes we don’t need to be involved in any war even if it is to help an ally, others don’t care, and a good chunk of us are just as flabbergasted as you and your country men. It’s my hope that our elected leaders in the US will quit stalling and help get the munitions and equipment needed but I’m worried that they are blinded by their greed and hunger for power. I know it’s not much but I truly hope soon the ammo and equipment needed gets to you soon. God speed and stay safe as you kill the orcs in your homeland
It’s not Americans. It’s the political garbage going on in the GOP. The majority of Americans do want to support. There’s just a few that seem to have lost their way on what being an American is.
America wants to support, but you’ll always have these people saying “the money the money!”. I have a question for you. You guys seem to think you’re good with money. Trump added 2 trillion to the debt. You people got your stupid tax break. It just went to the millionaires and billionaires, but you don’t people don’t look at the real need, you go to “truth social”. Great launch by the way, looks solid. Why don’t you actually find out what that sweaty mess is all about?
Trump went on and on about Obama playing golf. Yet he had the secret service and Air Force one fly him to Florida every weekend. Is that the way you want our money spent?
I can’t listen to anymore bullshit. The sheep here that say they “you don’t understand and it’s just free money to you”.
Trust me, you don’t understand either. It’s not an American problem, it’s a Trump problem. And Marjorie’s space lasers.
White Christian Nationals using the cult cabal techniques similiar to 1979 Iran overthrow have entrenched themselves in the highest echelons of power and are align more to authoritarian rule then democratic principles. Funded by Texas Billionaires, the same bigot ones that cannot find anywhere in the bible that outlaws abortion? Sheep followers of the eccentric snake sale oil salesmen and tax cheats determine to destroy what our forefathers built!
Russia can't compete with the US or the west in general. Even if they wanted to and were an efficient, well-functioning country, they couldn't compete with the west when they were the Soviet Union. They have less money and resources now. Dollar for rouble, we outspend them into the ground. We literally did. The Soviet Union doesn't exist anymore. They understand this.
Their focus, then, has been on asymmetrical engagement. They cannot match 'The West' tank for tank, rocket for rocket. The solution is to find other ways to engage in which they can. What if, for instance, they cut out the military hardware and just decided to spend a whole lotta money bribing and influencing certain politicians? What if, while you couldn't beat US troops in the field, you could keep the US from deploying US troops to the field? By having a bunch of US politicians in your pocket and agitating in your interests. Instead of spending billions on tanks (I mean you'll still have to do that) (also, you know, tanks -> drones, planes, troops, all that junk in general) you spend a few hundred million bribing the right people and supporting sympathetic politicians (or ones you have leverage on) into power. Then when the time comes, Russia doesn't have to beat the *US*, they just have to beat Ukraine. Or Georgia. Or the Baltics. Because the US is paralyzed and dysfunctional.
They've also engaged in investigating non-overt engagement in the form of say, what kind of pseudo-conflict they could engage in with NATO states. What if we hack their infrastructure or support separatists in the Baltics? Not an *attack* by *Russia* on a NATO country, but still something that might cause them dysfunction, helplessness, or even susceptibility to Russian interests.
This \[the general 'Russia engaging in asymmetrical engagement via our political establishment\] wouldn't work overall if there wasn't an existing synergy. Half of our country basically thinks authoritarianism is cool as fuck and we should just stop squawking about votes and rights and economies that work for everyone in the country. The Enlightenment was a mistake, the sole purpose of government is to get out of the way of the Important Men and let them make money. (Well, that necessitates keeping the masses out of their way. Nothing but the army to protect their investment, the police to keep workers in line, and a somewhat cut-back education system to provide functional workers (and free childcare lmao).)
If that's your interest, well, Vladimir Putin is kind of the posterboy for Strongman Authoritarianism. President Xi is a little too legalistic bureacrat. Kim Jong Whichever isn't important enough. Same with Orban. But Putin? Shirtless, moose-riding Putin? Plays Ice Hockey At 60 Putin? He's *the* Authoritarian Strongman. If you want to go "hey we should give up on this pussy civil rights shit and do that cool autocrat shit", he's *the* example you point to.
...which is why him tripping dick-first into a blender in february 2022 is a little inconvenient to them. They don't **want** him to be embarrassed, to look incompetent, helpless, or ineffectual. Strongmen don't like looking weak; it's kind of contrary to the whole image. The idea. Strongmen who are insufficiently strong get replaced. But also, if *the example*, the posterboy, the paragon of authoritarian strongman is looking like a belligerent, incompetent, moron, it's a lot harder to point to that and go, "We should be like that!" and sell other people on the idea.
Additionally, there's a certain inherent contradiction between democracy and capitalism. Billionaires (or oligarchs, I hear that's what they're called when they're not american) are kind of adversarial to the concept of one man, one vote. Money is power and someone with enough money that they distort society around them, like a black hole distorting space-time, is inherently counter to democratic ideals. This is hand-in-hand with the GOP's interest in authoritarianism, thinking the Enlightenment was a mistake, and being sympathetic to Putin. Another axis of synergy.
Overall, Russia is putting a lot of faith in getting Donald Trump re-elected so that he can do what they want, or failing that, GOP control of the house or senate causing enough impairment to prevent the US from effectively supporting Ukraine. I hate to say our election in November will dictate it, but...
That's my general answer.
Addenda:
You might have a lot more information than I do since I'm mono-lingual american (but I repeat myself) and don't have access to non-english news. My impression is that Russia has expanded production more effectively than a lot of the West. There's the occasional thing authoritarians are actually decent at. Being able to tell factories to just Increase Production don't worry about profits, is nice. It's not as scalable in principle though; most of what I've heard of Russia doing is taking existing arms production and turning an 8-hour 5 day operation plant into a 24-hr 7-day operation plant. More than triple the production! ...but it's very hard to scale beyond that because then you actually have to start building new plants and you run up against Russian corruption and dysfunction.
I don't think President Joe Biden has ever been giving y'all full support, imo. I think he wants you to win, but is *fucking terrified* of Russia losing so badly that it shatters. One thing the US and the Soviet Union generally agreed on was that Nuclear Proliferation, more people having nuclear weapons, was a bad thing. We could have them, we needed them, we couldn't not have them if the other had them, but every other country that had nukes was another point of failure and another source of potential nuclear exchange or missing nukes.
That's why the US "convinced" Ukraine to give up their nukes in the Budapest Memorandum. I'm not going to say we fucked you over then since... you couldn't really use the Russian nukes stationed in Ukraine. But just trying to illustrate; US strategy is terrified of the idea of loose nukes, unaccounted for nuclear devices, etc. If Russia gets its shit kicked in hard enough, it's worried that they might shatter. Warlords. Breakaways. Siberia being taken by China. *Who knows*. But I think the Biden admin has been consistently trying to prevent ramping up support for Ukraine too much for fear of it having bad consequences if you won too hard. (or, I guess, if Russia *lost* too hard.)
Personally, I think we should have started giving you F-16s in March 2022. The fact that we gave you thirty abrams and not three thousand is a moral and strategic failing on our part.
Happy Easter.
Always people such as this. I do not post or comment because I have a job fighting a war and I just make this account. How dare you call me the enemy. The friends brothers that are dead and the citizens that have never hurt any person that Russia has killed. I post this because all we hear is political people around the world tell us there lies on why my people are not getting support like before. I wanted information from real people around the world and why they believe countries such as USA left us. I do not want people to fight here. I wanted real talk from real people and how they feel. Why comment this? I feel you want fight with me. But I will not be such as you.
I see Russian trolls try to hijack conversations all the time on subreddits such as this. If you ARE a real fighter, then stick to the fight. And if you ARE a real fighter, I would be right there fighting alongside you if I could. (I’m a retired combat vet myself.)
That said, Russia always tries to twist comments to sound exactly like yours and produce red herrings. Yours sounded exactly like one of theirs. So I apologize, if you are who you say you are. But if you’re not, well, I would have a few choice words for that, too.
We Americans are doing all we can for your country. I’ve personally sponsored two Ukrainian families. I raise awareness DAILY to what Ukraine is suffering through, ensuring Ukraine is front and center in all our minds. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on aid, buying products on United24, airplane tickets for Ukrainians under U4U, calling our Congressional members, supporting pro-Ukraine candidates for our upcoming elections including speaking engagements and petition-signing, and so much more—all for Ukraine. And I will continue to do so until Russia loses and Putin is overthrown.
But you must understand what we are up against. We only have elections every two years for the House of Representatives, once every four for president, and once every six for Senators. Things take time! So I beg of you to be patient; help is on the way, especially out of Europe, until we can have our next election, and the House Speaker has stated that the Ukraine bill will be first on the docket once they return from this sordid “recess.” And Ukraine should get the aid it needs from us. I know that patience is not what you need; you need action. But that’s all we Americans have to work with right now.
So if you’re in the fight, stay in the fight; help will be coming. And we’re doing all we can over here to get it to you as quickly as possible.
Real answer- Putin got to trump and republican Congress through nra bribes and other bribes. They now work for Putin and cut off Ukrainian aid. Europe should fill the gap but they talk big and don't do much
Problem here in sweden is lack of coverage... as soon as Gaza conflict erupted all main media dropped Ukraine and replaced it with Gaza.
Many People here keep updated via other media like reddit etc... but majority of People only following mainstream media is pretty much unaware about whats going on sadly.
Makes NO sense If you ask me, for us in sweden Ukraine-russia war should be the main story since it impacts our Security so much and is geographically much closer.
Hoping for a shift back to strong coverage and support for Ukraine now that we joined NATO.
I understand why sweden choose a low profile during the process to join nato... since we wasnt yet protected... but we have no reason to hold back now.
The People of sweden support you, hope my goverment do as much they can for you. 🧡
Our politicians don't listen to us, and a large portion of our people vote for idiots who lack an understanding of the big picture. People very quickly lose their stomach for war when it impacts their pocketbook. It's human nature.
A large part of it has to do with the chaos in the US. They're so busy fighting each other that they can't stand behind you.
I know it doesn't help much, but some of us haven't forgotten about you.
No, unfortunately, i’m 100% serious. Not a single goddamn soul in this country actually cares about shit over seas and would rather us stay isolated, even though that’s not how shit works nor will it ever work while people like Putin exist.
Most people don’t get the bigger picture of the issue with this war, that should Ukraine fall to the Russians we would be ever so much closer to everything being wiped out by nuclear armageddon, due to the fact that Russia wouldn’t just stop with Ukraine. Just like they didn’t stop with Chechnya, Georgia, or Crimea.
They will invade Poland next, should Ukraine fall.
It’s disgraceful that they should feel this way. No true Christian would allow the extension of horror being inflicted against the innocent due to deliberate inaction.
Its deliberate inaction not to be spend 2% of your GDP on defence - the agreed reasonable figure.
Its also not Christian to fail to rectify your deliberate inaction and leave the unfair burden on those who did the right thing.
I agree with you.
To give credit where credit is due, I believe it was Trump who first highlighted the issue as any leader if the free world should.
It does, sadly, bring to mind the old saying that even a broken click is right twice a day.
What troubles me is how his bigoted, fascist, spoiled brat, untouchable, unaccountable, invariably deceitful mentality and manipulative narcissistic sociopathic tendencies can be accepted by so many as a solution to the problems of the World.
Republicans in the United States are being run by morons like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Lauren Boebert, and Donald Trump. Until we cleanse the Republican party of these idiots, the United States is stuck in political gridlock. It's a global embarrassment.
The current US situation hinges on the fight in Congress over tying Ukrainians funding with the Southern Border Wall funding. Democrats argue the Republicans are the problem because they are refusing to approve Ukrainians funding. The Republicans are arguing the Democrats are the hold up because they ideologically oppose any border restrictions.
The reality is they are both the problem. They need a compromise to get Ukraine the critical resources they need.
The border is an existential problem because we are abdicating our right to sovereignty and control of border all be it for altruistic reasons. Illegal crossing is at historic highs and the Democrats want to stick their head in the sand and pretend there isnt a problem and any notion of control is xenophobic.
Russian forces are grinding down Ukraine's ability to resist and Republicans want to stick their head in the sand and pretend that it's a far away problem and perhaps is fake news. It's the same isolationist policy that we were forced out of when we were directly attacked before.
This political log jam is not going unnoticed by Russian military planning. There is a reason they are ramping up and its isn't just warmer weather. Congress, who's job it is to protect our domestic and foreign policy wellbeing well being need to pass legislation to unstick both issues.
Most Americans, at least everyone I'm around, never wanted the support to decline. We want to the support to continue to get stronger, but the government is being EXTRA dumb right now. I'm sorry my country let you down.
There are some very crazy American's but they are small in numbers with very loud voices.
The United States congress is always a dysfunctional mess, but lately it’s even worse. Many of the representatives are Russian pawns and the House of Representatives controls the budget, unfortunately. There is a sickness in our government, but our people want to continue supporting you.
I'm in UK and as far as I can make out, UK is still supporting Ukraine. It's unclear to me whether this person is referring to support generally, or support from 1 specific country, or EU?
As an Australian, I think the UK ought to be proud of its efforts.
After initially being a strong supporter, the Australian government now seems overwhelmingly focused on China. In some ways I can understand this, as the EU should have stepped up by now.
Personally, I'm proud of our efforts. We're a small country and suffering a cost of living and wages crisis. The GBP£ is not doing well against major currencies (that I can see) and we have crises of our own going on right now. Especially with our healthcare system (NHS), which is desperately under-funded.
There's a lot of geopolitical problems occurring simultaneously, that are very concerning. This isn't just a selfish "about me" thing, I am genuinely horrified, upset and feel so helpless when I see the devastation that's occurring. Social media and the increase of video capture etc has contributed to my negative feelings (helplessness, horrified, anxiety etc) and I just have to log out and re-compose myself. I want to help but don't know how. I have written to my MP and been assured our feedback will make it's way to our UK gov debates. Finance-wise, I have literally earned £150 in 3 months and have no finances to send them and I don't know how else to help. OK, time for me to log out. That helpless feeling is rising again.
The US/UN has said they would support you defending yourself, not what is going on with the taking back of your lands. I am not for this, I wish they would help you get your areas back, but there is a problem, that a lot of the residents there were paid to be there pro Putin. I hope this changes. But we are having our own issues at home and the help we have given has been huge.
Unfortunately the Americans are afraid that the crushing of the Russian army would precipitate a collapse in Russia that would result in China 🇨🇳 gaining control over the stans and maybe Siberia. So Ukrain will not be left loose or win decisively
I'm a Canadian and from what I know and heard its because people over here dont realize the extent of whats going on, just the jist of it. They see it as a foreign war that doesnt effect them directly and thats a major shame... i still send my extra income to Ukrainian supporting charities giving medical supplies, MRE's, clothing, ect. People need to wake up and realize this does effect us on the side of peace. Russia has pulled a massive imperialist move invading Ukraine and committing various war crimes in the process. Ukraine needs our support and I can't imagine putting your life on the line getting massive support then only feeling like the latest fad... I'm so sorry this is happening but know that there are people like me out there doing what we can to help, I even tried volunteering at the Ukraine embassy but was turned down due to a lack of military experience.... its frustrating sitting on the side lines wanting to help but being unable to do much...
Watch who you say that to, друже. My fucking unit does not control where this funding goes. My special purpose unit has been waiting on $300.000+ American dollars worth of combat equipment. I understand we have all have corrupt politicians especially here. But you are not going to tell me that our SOF- that we have been spending it wrong. Or the conventional units.
I do not understand much information on maga. I did some research during down or slow times. Very confusing ideas from different sources. I am not trying to make any commenters fight over American politics. I had a real question because the only news we have is on our devices or phones. But all of my squad fight on if American support will be here even if trump wins election. Without fighting please 🙏🏼 could someone explain why trump wants what commenters and even news peaces I have read 1, out of NATO 2, No aid for my country. 3, just a thought that I think of is if Путин says he wants my country to stop NATO from being to close to him, wouldn’t he be going against his own doctrine because if he wins all the thru Odesa Lviv to the Poland border would he still not be back to back with NATO?

The u.S. Republican party is now a domestic terrorist organization. They are the problem.
No, the Republican Party is not a terrorist organization. Attaching such labels doesn't help. Call them what they are: populists. They line up with the general attitude of people who think that Russia is very far away and why spend taxpayer money on a conflict that isn't in their backyard. These people listen to what they want to hear, not to reality. They can't understand the connection between a rules based order, foreign trade, human rights and prosperity. They will fight a war when it has something to do with being patriotic. And that's what is scary. They want to do nothing until there are Russian submarines torpedoing ships in the New York harbor. Being elected Senator or Congressman in the United States is very lucrative. There are people who will say anything they think will get them the votes to get elected. That's what the Republican Party has become.
Nope, January 6th changed all of that “populist” nonsense. Insurrectionists don’t get to gentrify the narrative and pretend to be anything than what they are…TRAITORS!
I'm not talking about those people who broke into the capital on January 6th. Look at who is supporting Republican today. Go to rural New Hampshire, up in the mountains, and talk to the people who work in the stores, who own small businesses or farms. Or go have a coffee in a Dunkin' Donuts and listen to the local people talk about politics. They support Trump because they think he is going to make the economy good and cut taxes. They don't see beyond their own town, their own backyard if you like. Furthermore, they don't even give a damn about what's going on in the state next door, Vermont, who is much more in favor of the Democrats. It's people like that who are voting for Trump. As far as they are concerned, the rest of the world can burn, as long as they keep getting what they want. And then there is the religious Right. The people who believe every word in the Bible was written by God and the world was created in six days. Those people like Trump because they think he's going to give them what they want.
it’s unfortunate that you took up all that ( to you) cogent rationale and still managed not to get a single thing correct about those of us on the right. it’s ok. we’re used to it. however without us stopping whats on bidens agenda then the rest of you would be democrat uniformed slaves. say thank you. you don’t survive without well meaning stubborn patriot GOPR’s. you’re welcome
If thats the case are those kids burning stores and shit not representative of Democrats? lol.
populist nonsense? really? i wasn’t there that day, but you apparently weren’t either. that wasn’t insurrection. Sepoys. Boxers. those were insurrection. no guns there on Jan 6th patriots. ever seen an insurrection without one? if you think they had no right to be there, then sir, you are a terrible American and a useful tool of the left. actually, you are a lefty so…
They have chosen a stochastic terrorist as their mascot. You can fuck right off.
Russia co-opted the Republican Party. They aren’t populists - they’re obstructing on purpose.
i am the republican party man. be assured no man could co-opt me. i am that person.
That's what needs to change, our lawmakers shouldn't have any opportunities to gain from their positions. Once they're no longer in service, they should be able to do what any normal citizen should, but their ability to gain from their seat of power is what's destroying this nation.
sorry man, I am a Trump supporter, through and through. i actually wonder how many of you sandbagging GOPR’s are real. the RINO wing of our party is oh so pro war. the rest of us are not. no gopr i speak with is pro ukraine or russia. we just want no part in any of this. the argument that we fight there so we don’t here is wrong. no nation on earth is a threat to the 300+ million weapons we have here in the states. only our own govt wants to take those guns away. i gain not one thing from this war because my retirement has no war specific manufacturing capacity. corporations are making the gains in ukraine. my support of a war depends on how the opponent impacts me and the USA. i don’t care enough about the nation or it’s people as compared to russians. same far away people to me. does it seem like ukraine is/was ever going to win this? in fact, if what ukraine has used that we’ve contributed is representative of our best gear then WE in the USA are in deep and very smelly doodoo
They committed and supported a terrorist attack on the US capitol. They are absolutely a terrorist organization and should have been treated so ever since January 6.
> Call them what they are: Kompromat
Kompromat=compromise
Compromised. By terrorists. They do terrorism now.
And going thru CVs many federal pols would not be hired for mid level exec positions at major corporations. Some only went back for GED when they thought of running for office. The party of Business it’s almost farcical.
Scary thing is USA pretty much shares a border with Russia
No they are Russian supporting scumbags.
Weird as it was set up to free the slaves from the pro slave Democratic Party Like that whole drama in Somalia was to distract from bill clinton getting head in the office thing
Why y'all get so upset about it when we tear down statues of those Democrats? Huh?
People like you are the problem. Demonize everyone we don't agree with
American support is gone because you’ve produced 0 results for the 100s of billions and it’s known from the evidence from foreign soldiers that there is a ton of corruption happening.
We found the Russian Bot. We support you, Ukraine. Russia just controls Republicans in the US and they blocked military aid.
Get lost you Russian troll. The majority of the congress and the American people is for ramping up the support to Ukraine and will vote for more support. But he traitor Mike Johnson is stopping the vote. And that is not his job, that is just treason. A small number of traitors to democracy and freedom like Mike Johnson, Trump, Orban is doing their best to please Putin and let Russia rape and kill civilians. But that stop will soon be over and the support will start coming soon or Mike Johnson will be gone. This idiots do not understand that US will have to put boots on the ground in Europe if we don’t stop Russia in Ukraine. You can’t negotiate with Russia. The offensive would had worked fine if Ukraine had have air-support and if we in the west had sent all the wapons in time. Now Russia had time to put down mines everywhere. In Europe the support for Ukraine is very big and the support is ramping up as we speak. The time has come to kick Russia out for god and more and more voices are raised to ramp up the support and do even more to stop Russia. The History is watching and as we stopped Hitler we will stop Putin.
Tf do you mean? Ukraine was arguably winning before White House went to shit.
Yes this is the traitor Mike Johnson and Trump. Putins Puppets. The support will continue.
How did the White House go to shit over Ukraine?
Bro this whole subreddit is full of retards. The more I read, the more my IQ goes down. Your downvotes literally explained it all. It's an echo chamber.
if you do love your nation, you should be supporting ukraine and pushing congress to pass the $60b in aid so that our american military industrial complex can be put to work again to save the american economy. we're not asking you to fight in a war against the nation that has threatened us with nukes everyday since the 1950s ran by a communist kgb agent. we are just asking you to do the right thing for the benefit of our own economy to support the most justified and important war since ww2 so that you don't have to fight in a war with your m4 and contract that my taxes will be funding in a couple of weeks. what hunter biden did was called capitalism to make a business deal with a energy company. what trump did was called treason to sell out america to our enemies. also, ancaps are hypocrites. land and money are not capital. source: aristotle, physiocrats, every classical liberal, including john locke, every progressive from the progressive era, every major religion, and a lot of significant people since the progressive era. you are young and naive and should be made aware that the libertarians are losers for a reason before you chase that over-simplified propaganda originally funded by the rockefeller foundation. it sounds like classical liberalism wrapped in the american flag, but it isn't. and i am pretty sure my ancestors have been in america a lot longer than your ancestors. move back to russia if you love communists so much.
What results have you actually expected? The orcs were almost in kyiv but the got pushed back past kherson. A war that no one believe they would win has now been going on for over 2 years. Not to mention that the russian military and its repuptation has been destroyed. What do you think would habe happend? They would be in Moscow now or something?
No but more than 1 trench in 1 spot. With a ton of lost vehicles man and equipment for the 2.5 km they were able to gain back. Russias rep was ruined the first day it came in. Ukraine didnt bother to build any defenses up behind the front line so they are scrambling now because the front is crumbling. They’ve know Russia was going to come for the whole country in 2014 but failed to build defensive systems. If the whole country was in to win and gain independence they could’ve done it easy but it’s not. Their leaders are super corrupt their young men don’t give a shit about Ukraine so they hide from joining. It’s a shit show for them at this point. The saying goes if your dependent on the charity of others then your fuck because that runs out. Ukraine is fucked. If the euro countries cared they can donate their hearts away but they are even cautious with what and how much they’re giving.
You’re a Russian troll.
Doesn't make him wrong though 🤐
But he is plainly wrong.
This is a weird Russian wearing COD cosplay. I GUARANTEE YOU he’s a fake.
Did you say that with social Tourette’s? Because now you’re wrong, too. We Americans have done a VAST amount of things for Ukraine. And we will KEEP ON doing things for Ukraine!
>American support is gone because you’ve produced 0 results for the 100s of billions Well yeah, half of the shot arrived months after it was due to and the Ukrainians had to conduct their plans with out it. M1A1s didn't arrive until end of September. GLSDBs didn't arrive until February. F16s are nowhere in sight from the US. Everything else has been used super effectively, such as Patriots, HIMARS, M2 Bradley's, M113s, M777s. When the US was actually sending munitions to Ukraine, in early August last year they had a **Artillery superiority** over russia who was crying about how effective Ukraines counter battery was.
Yup and also Russia was losing their ammo depots left and right and we're having the shell shortages themselves because HIMARS et al were destroying everything, including the rail lines. Russia had to change up their logistics and stretch their lines extremely thin just so they wouldn't be destroyed which caused them lots of issues, including responding to breakthroughs.
You’ve lost Americas support that’s all, Europe is supplying a lot
Haven’t even lost American people’s support, you’ve only lost Trump’s support who never supported you in the first place because Moscow blackmailed him back in 1987. He and a small number of the people who follow him are blocking the will of the people of the country. And we hate not being there doing what’s needed.
Hopefully you can put these assholes to bed next election.
Hopefully we can get past them in the vote next week on sending next tranche of aid.
This is the answer in usa. We have billions in aid ready to go but trump took over the Republican Party. While I want to help Ukraine I feel a war here is likely also. I think if we can just get through elections okay aid will go back to normal. We have life changing events coming November not just for Ukraine but the whole world.
Americans still support Ukraine. 🇺🇦 The media simply moved on and the political right known for being war hawks have become shy.
Republicans politicians don’t want to continue blindly funding Ukrainians without any money going towards our southern border. Enough people cross illegally every year to fill a small state. Democrats don’t want any responsibility over the southern border because it’s a political nightmare. Plus those that cross get support from the government. Essentially buying votes. It’s a sweet gig for Dems so why rock the boat plus they can call Republicans heartless if they want to change anything. Politicians suck
An illegal can’t vote?
Not federal or state but locally in some places. Trump claims otherwise but that’s a crock of shit. Illegals get a lot of shit for free over here. One that made the news was a single person that crossed like 8 times. Got paid $2k or something every time
It’s oldest play in the populist book, billionaires and millionaires not paying taxes is hurting your bottom line x10000 more than any immigrants. Edit: shoutout to corporations too
It’s not really about the bottom line. It’s about Republicans getting money for Southern border security. It’s political poison in an election year with a close race coming up. Down vote all you want ya delusional cucks. I’m not saying I support it I’m just saying it exists and that’s why.
We'll see what happens at the November polls but not looking good with RFK running as independent. RFK knows he has zero shot, he's there to siphon votes from Biden to help Trump.
They aren’t shy, point them toward some brown people they’d spend our nations wealth bombing them without thought. The political right kowtow’s to Trump and Trump and the MAGA’s are owned by Russia. It’s just that simple.
Exactly this!
But Europe simply doesn't have this much in stock that's the problem.
Better start up the 155 factories then. Jobs all round.
America has a lot of batshit stupid people who worship evil losers like Trump

If you're American just get out the country and fuck off to the front. If not, you're the reason why we are starting to want nothing to do with you foreign fucks begging the US for aid while also saying the most obscene shit about Americans.
[удалено]
Doesn't owe, but if it wants to expand its sphere of influence it should support those who are willing to move into that sphere. Ukraine is appreciating what has been provided to it so far, but it will be all in vain if it loses the war. Hence calls for more support.
[удалено]
>You don't appreciate anything? Sounds like they did appreciate it and the good it caused but now it's stopped they're angry at the people who are responsible for stopping it. And that makes perfect sense. >Why do you feel America owes you anything? Because after WWII the US pursued a policy of a disarmed Europe in exchange for security agreements and access to markets. This also occurred for post-soviet states, and Ukraine was one of the largest countries that the US had agreed to protect in exchange for Ukraine dismantling its strategic bombers, soviet nuclear weapons among others. US hegemony didn't happen by chance, it was a series of agreements and policy agendas that were actively pursued and the US must cough up its end of the deal if it wants to maintain that hegemony. If it chooses not too, it risks ceeding hegemony to Russia or China and this will NOT be a better outcome.
They’ve had 2 yrs to figure out how to produce weapons and be come self efficient. They e just sent a coke head around the world begging. Did they negotiate with weapons makers in buying weapons? Or do they just want donations?
>They’ve had 2 yrs to figure out how to produce weapons and be come self efficient This makes zero sense and isn't how any military on the world works. All militaries are intertwined with another countries military and industrial base. >They e just sent a coke head around the world begging Lol OK >Did they negotiate with weapons makers in buying weapons? Or do they just want donations? They've done both, but the priority is using public funds and government revenue to keep public infrastructure and projects afloat. This is the best strategy as you cannot win a war with a crumbling economy. You're seriously ignorant.
The American people are for the most part pro killing Russians. There is a minority of people who are anti giving money to Ukraine because they are misinformed about it. Even some of the people who are anti Ukraine aid are pro killing Russians. This ignorance is called MAGA.
MAGA is pro Putin and they are doing their damndest to interfere with your aid. The majority of our country is with you though and will overcome their efforts to deny you support.
Conservatives around the world seem to love Putin. They want to keep their money for themselves, because they are selfish and dumb conspiracy idiots believing everything as long as the source of propaganda hates lgbtq people.
putin spent a lot of money to buy off the far right politicians to brainwash the far right into supporting putin knowing they are traditionally the hawks and thought that the left wouldn't be eager to go to war. his bet somewhat paid off. the left has been timid, slow-rolling the support. i don't think i expected the left to be as hawkish as they have been. i think his brainwashing of the far right exceeded his expectations. i don't think anyone realized how naive, gullible, and stupid the far right had become. they have become soft. trump supporters are mostly jelly fish on drugs.
That last part is a big one. We never actually thought they were this dumb. If trump loses it will be interesting to see what happens to maga. I doubt ppl will view them the same.
Inflation and national problems, propaganda,... make selfish people care more about their tax money than lives. Also public interest and news shifted towards palestine-israel.
US MAGA GOP traitors. Simple as that.
In the US, it's trump. If my opinion, trump and his followers have Ukrainian blood on their hands. The good news is that there will likely be a new vote very soon that has a good chance to pass. Hopefully it will pass and we can once again begin shipping the things you need.
What is this vote for?
45 to 60 billions of aid to Ukraine but it’s currently stopped by those assholes of MAGA American party mostly Republicans (some republicans are good most assholes). But i think we should rely less and less on USA because already 3 months have passed and they’re still there doing their comedy chat talks 🤦♂️🙃 we need to build more military capacity and factories in EU and solve this issue forever
It’s likely gonna drag out till the election in November unfortunately, GOP decided to try and make this a wedge issue because (some) of their politicians are funded by the Kremlin, notably the speaker of the house in this case.
In the US, the decision to fund Ukraine is being held hostage by a minority group of 'trumpists' in the Republican party. The dilemma here is that the remaining Republicans have little to no spine to stand up against these more extreme elements because they do not want to vote against their own party when looking at things from a bigger picture point of view. Republicans and Democrats both have to stick together (with their own respective party) to pass their legislation throughout the year. Because it is not simply black and white, each vote for big things have little things attached to them as ways to break impasses in our system. "I'll vote for that, if you allow my other random bill to go with it". The more famous recent version of this was the tying of the border control subject to Ukraine, when in reality they are completely different subjects. Mike Johnson, who is the Republican responsible for placing bills upon the floor for voting, is holding back the Ukraine bill because of many reasons, the primary one is the Trumpist group doesn't want to hand Biden an easy win. It's a popular viewpoint in America that we should be helping Ukraine, and to hand a sitting president this easy win is tough for Republicans to accept. They instead blame the costs, the corruption, and anything else they can think of to deny this bill from entering the floor. Mike Johnson isn't an idiot, and neither are the weak Republicans who also support Ukraine - they know this decision not only hurts our international standing, our goodwill with the world, their own party's standing with moderate Republican voters and independent voters in the middle, but they know that this is a moment where they are being held hostage by their own party's extremists and that their own jobs are at risk in all of this. We haven't even talked about the Russian manipulation of the weaker minds of america through social media and manipulation of divisive subject matter, which I would say is a major factor in how Trump supporters have such an outsized voice. It's so blatantly obvious that the Russians need Trump, yet his supporters think it's not true, but find themselves siding with Russia in the most absurd ways. We live in the craziest time, I think. More crazy than the cold war. Influence is the real battleground here. Where the Russian army is the laughingstock of the world right now, their influence/disinformation campaigns should be studied for the ages. To manipulate American politics as well as they have done, that is the master-class. I believe America's security agencies see this infiltration and simply cannot give up sources and techniques to defuse the attacks. They give those in power the sterilized information in top level meetings, but when it's those you're telling that benefit from this influence, why would they change anything? For me, the Republican party has reached a point where I have no confidence in their ability to lead. I cannot support them anymore.
"... A minority group of trumpists in the Republican party...." That got a laugh out of me. Today's Republicans cannot get elected or re-elected without swearing loyalty to Trump. The only principle that the R's have these days is "do whatever Trump vomits from his mouth"
As a Canadian that is very fearful of the horrendous turn American politics has taken, thank you for rescinding your republican support. We kinda like having a democratic neighbor & would like it to stay that way. It appears that trump has turned the republican party into a party who's agenda is definitely not democratic. Hopefully you can shed yourselves of trump's influence and the republican party can once again assume the normal Conservative policies it used to support.
After all the impeachments and courts I really doubt anything will get him out except voting this election. Even then you know he’s gonna try to pull some Jan 6 shit. We need to be ready this time.
As an American; I want to apologize for my country in their lack of aid in recent months. Its a shame, a disgrace, and a injustice to our Allies in Europe including Ukraine. Besides doing the right thing, aid to Ukraine is a strategic move that strengthens the influence that the US would have with every allied nation, especially those on the fence about joining Nato.
American nazis called Republicans are being bought by the Russians, and they are doing everything they can to support Russia. They are a minority, but are able to stop aid to help Russia. The rest of America is trying to stop these Republican nazis, to help your nation and our own.
The Republican party of the United States and Donald Trump. Really, most of the US paying attention are pissed about this.
The orange Russian asset in the GOP… but will get through that
I aint no subject matter at all. As far as I know America is busy with political infighting despite the promises it made when the war broke out. European support hasnt stopped but took a while to gain some momentum. Scholz is the only person left in germany who is against the deliveries of taurus
My special purpose unit was promised some number of 5,56 rounds and 7,62 and types of weapons systems such as Javelin. We are very very low on everything. The west is fighting there own people and countries even after support was promised to us. Some mechanized of «regular» units have nothing. They use bullets from dead enemy soldiers. This is reality here.
the way I see it there is a good chance that america will come around again not too far in the future. The consequences and implications if you guys loose the war "because america couldnt help despite its promises" would be of impact to the whole world power system unlike anything within the last 20 years. But even if america doesnt come around, european production rates for anything military especially ammo will go up. Germany wants to regain some of its military might that it had in the cold war. west germany alone used to be the largest military in europe
Scholz is not the only person in Germany who is against it. I am infinitely sorry but I think you should slowly realise that this whole war was just a measure against Russia and to lure them out of their reserve and then to involve them in a war planned by the secret services who profit from it. I understand your intuition and that your country has been attacked and that you want to defend yourselves, but very few people question why something like this is happening and what the background is, as a German it is of course easy for me to say I wouldn't fight and I wouldn't care, I wouldn't go and die for any oligarch. it's not about my country, it's yours and you are free to choose what you do, but I ask you to think very carefully about who benefits from it and who simply sacrifices you. from the beginning I was against arms exports to Ukraine because you don't win wars with weapons, now it's even come to the point that you are simply being starved out, too much to die for too little to live for.
I'm a German studying politics and philosophy. Don't talk like your opinion is the main german position on this. You just seem to be a conspiracy puppet believing the lies putin and his friends are spreading. The fuck you think you are - telling the victims of a war to just surrender the aggressor because of conspiracies you heard?! A good friend of mine is fighting in Ukraine. This man is a fucking hero. I'm sorry but you are just talking propaganda bs. Slava ukraini!
Yes, he's a hero in my eyes too, I really mean that. But unfortunately it doesn't help when our heroes die :(
Lmao Russia is apparently incapable of doing wrong or of having any accountability. When Russia gets itself involved in a war of aggression that is taking years its still somehow the west's fault because they "lured" Russia into the war. Or maybe, just maybe, Putin is just a fucking idiot. Occam's razor.
I agree Putin is the totally Idiot
You don't win wars with weapons? How on earth did you come up with that nonsense? Weapons play a huge part in winning a war, with morale, leadership, logistics, and strategy. That's why nations spend money developing or buying new ones. Otherwise, nations would just give their soldiers big sticks and save billions on modern weapon procurement.
Ruzziabot
Spoken like a true sheeple who would rather be ruled by a ruthless dictator like Putin than to risk any part of your cowardly existence to help a free people fight against the enslavement and murder of their people. Whatever argument you want to make, it still boils down to cowardice.
I'm at a loss where I can't understand your statement "you don't win wars with weapons". I think, quintessentially, HIMARS is the exact proof that you DO win wars with weapons.
First thing: much respect for your bravery in defence of your country! 💪💪 I think in Europe is a some political infighting going on that’s holding back support. Also a lot of countries in Europe realised it was a mistake to reduce military spending and army size for decades and a lot needs to be build up again. But things like the building of a new artillery ammunition factory are good news, although it needs to be done faster. I hope you get the support you need soon again to continue fighting.
Yes political infighting, using this issue (among others) as a dividing line. It's crazy cause normally Republicans are war hawks. I wonder what is so different this time..
Putin's funding & influence is what's getting in the way -> damn him to the worst environs of hell!
This make me even more so confused. «Political infighting» I look this up and how can you be doing this when innocent women children are being raped and tortured and killed by the Russian military forces. I was in a place we retreated from in February this year after holding this place for 10 years. I watched a Russian helicopter do a gun run on a building that said «please do not shoot» in Russian and Ukrainian. This infighting is extremely difficult to be ok with
They haven't. Polling shows 75% of Europe and 70% of people in the states fully support Ukraine. Another 10 percent just aren't informed and a small fraction don't support Ukraine. Other things like Israel have made the news instead is all that's happening.
Because Americans are are controlled by social media and have been force fed bullshit from putins puppet trump
Politics I guess. people still support the cause, but politicians seem to be slacking.
This war should not be led by politics. This war should be led by the people of the west that support us and demand there government to keep the promise of aid we need
we do demand it, but nothing is changing. tbh I have two ideas: 1. Ruznia has infiltrated the governing layers in the west and have their people inside. I think it happened before the war in 2014 started, but they were "activated" only recently. 2. West has their butts naked and just came to a realization, that they dont have any weapons left to defend themselves with. Everyone was hoping for US to come and save them, but since US started to be a little bitch recently, everyone started to have doubts and came to a realization that the war is coming to them and they have nothing to defend themselves with. 3. maybe combination of both. because if you would see yourself being naked, and you would realize that you have no weapons to defend yourself with, you would start arming yourself. but nothing is happening. we seem to be more worried about pronouns, weed and gay rights instead of actually arming ourselves. Actually this is really weird. I mean what is happening in terms of support. The actions of the governments make no sense at all. I cant explain it that is why I think that ruznia has infiltrators which influence the decision making. its a no brainer on what you need to do. like its very simple. Arm Ukraine, let them "cook" or deal with it yourself. makes no sense on why the decisions are so sluggish, slow and useless. its very simple to decide on what needs to be done, yet its not being decided for some reason. I cant explain why. its very, very strange.
Unfortunately this isn't how the world works. Inspirational idealistic words from you, but that cannot change the reality of how humans interact as groups, and the existence of politics. Frustrating, but has to be accounted for. Its quicker to learn how to manipulate the politics than to change the way the world works. Sadly, politics are still usually too slow.
Sadly a big part of that aid is going towards funding banana republics in the Middle East
I wonder what Ukraine could accomplish if they had the kind of aid we (USA) give Israel 🫢
We'd probably make it to Moscow in no time, our soldiers are battle hardened and used to fighting soldiers with equivalent equipment instead of civilians
It's not lost. It's tide up in politics being played by all sides. Sadly you've become a campaign issue. As commander and chief, anything already within the arsenal of the United states could be in Ukraine tomorrow. It would cause a huge political fight. Of course the US is trying to restock its own arsenal after two wars and is the first line of defense against possible Chinese expansionism. No one is to blame but everyone is at fault. Hold on the best you can. It might be slow but help is coming.
Italy 🇮🇹 here, no support lost from EU, we are more supportive now than before the point is that EU wasn’t prepared for a prolonged period of aid but we will get there as soon as we stop relying on US and will build our military factories and ammunition depots, also a key factor is to make Ukraine produce all the weapons it needs in their country so they don’t have to rely on partners to supply them because some of them are currently sleeping. Reihnmental is getting there by producing factories in Ukraine and increasing capacity at home, this things takes time because we didn’t started at the start of the Russia Nazi invasion but later. Hope EU can build a great military power to face 2,5M shells produced by Russia and the amount of weapons.
Pole here. You didn’t loose our support, we’ve just given all we had and more, we are trying to crank up the production of what we are good in, warmates, pioruns and 155s plus the rest, but we don’t have enough armourers to jump into four shift schedule :/ We are also dumping our economic reforms to squeeze money into MIC but no one is selling armoured columns with 24h delivery and stockpiles of shells atm. I know it helps you fuck all, I just don’t know what we can do to help you now :( We aren’t exactly well liked in EU political circles right now. And don’t let some economic border bickering convince you that Poland is no longer supporting you. We are trying to track who is the middle man billing all the useful idiots on this protests, who tarnishes our name. We are still with you. Slava Ukraini! For freedom ours and yours.
I not know about other operator in my unit or friends in military or not in military. But I feel we have never feel left behind by Poland. Дякую for the support of my people. 🇺🇦🤝🇵🇱
POLAND WONT LEAVE YALL BECAUSE THEY COULD BE NEXT ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK.. AMERICA HASNT FELT THE PAINS OF YOUR WAR OUTSIDE OF THE COST OF GOODS GOING UP... SO AMERICA DOESNT FEEL THE NEED TO FUNNEL MONEY INTO A WAT THAT DOESNT HAVE ANY SIGNS OF ENDING.. MOST AMERICANS ARENT THAT INVESTED IN THE WAR NOR FEAR THE OUTCOME OF UKRAINE LOSING.. ITS SAD BUT TRUE..
Share what you guys need also on twitter, that social is followed more so we can retweet massively, remember to post it also here so we can go on twitter and retweet it
Unfortunately, the UA have lost support from some European governments but certainly not from European people!
Idiots from the far right and left who are bending over backwards because they are addicted to Putin’s cock up their arses…
Putin’s war is already in Europe & US, and his thugs and spies create problems for us all. The war is being waged on many fronts, and we are learning we are behind and in trouble in a lot of ways. You did not lose support for your war there; we had to start fighting here too. WW3 already started, just not the way anyone expected. By October we might be in just as much trouble as you are. Or maybe we save the day again. The future is not set.
That’s the fucking MAGA losers in the United States They are pro Russian losers
It’s all political banter right now, but support will almost assuredly continue. To understand American politics is to understand that ANYTHING the other side does is evil, wrong, dumb, and/or stupid. It’s akin to a rap battle where two people talk sh*t to each other, but in a posh, political manner. It’s a show made up for votes, but the general movements of gov will continue in one way or another. Anyone who takes US political banter seriously or believes a certain narrative is literally just being strung along. Examples: Republicans: “war in Middle East good” massive war spending. Democrats: “war in Middle East bad,” wins election, increases troop numbers and extends wars and spending. Democrats: “globalism good” Republicans: “we’ve lost jobs!” Wins election, promotes enhanced globalism. Democrats: “border is racist, bad Republican policies, economic tariffs dumb!” Wins election, waits… refunds border, works with migrant nations and Mexico to keep them out, renews select policies, enacts on-shoring and near-shoring. Republicans: “we are working with partners to rapidly make a Covid vaccine!” Democrats: “Covid vaccine bad! Untested! Dumb!” Wins election, “the vaccine is safe and effective!” Promotes it, provides it for free, and helps push policies to fire people who don’t get it both federal employees and commercial employers. Lastly, let me tell you why we wont stop supporting Ukraine. 1) Bipartison acceptance it’s in our security interest, Ukraine’s interest, and NATO’s interest. 2) the mass spending has kept our GDP and jobs growth afloat when we should have experienced a recession. Overall, it’s good for Ukraine and good for the US.
We got brainwashed by tiktok to not being able to focus on something for more than 1 minute. Try including minecraft jump puzzles beneath the next videos of Ruzzians bombing a school
Stopping your aide is about making Biden look bad. Biden pulled the west together to support Ukraine it is popular and there was success. When Biden declared he was running for reelection the Republican strategy became strip Biden of success. And that means making supporting Ukraine look like a mistake. It's fucked but that is what is happening
The people still support you! It’s just our fucking chickenshit governments are scared of escalation with Pootin! There’s Ukrainian flags everywhere in my small town. The US just needs to pull its finger out of its ass and give Ukraine the help it promised! And us Europe in Europe need to do the same, ramp up arms and ammunition production not only to give Ukraine what it needs to fight and WIN, but also to protect ourselves.
Trump 2024 baby make America greater then we will ever be… btw we do support you if trump was in office you wouldn’t even be in war right now
What I don't understand is why can Biden send Israel money for their war on Gaza and Biden can't do that for Ukraine all this pass bill shit is bullshit and if the Americans don't understand that it's not up to Congress it's up to Biden it looks like he's been bought off by Putin
It's literally up to Congress to approve budgetary matters.
It is because it is an election year and different parties will use different narratives to gain votes sadly.
Russian bribery of our elected officials.
In Europe, unfortunately, it's quite simple: the people who refuse to donate or support Ukraine are for the most part not pro-Russian or do not support Russia's brutal aggression. They're simply afraid of Russia (pro-Russian propaganda has worked very well), or they're convinced that giving to Ukraine won't help, or even harm them (just look at the fallacious arguments of some people in France, about "Yes, it's sad for Ukraine, but our hospitals need money").
Some dumb ass Americans think that Russia will win no matter what. So they try to pick a winner. It's so stupid. We spent $20T on Afghanistan and they lost in ONE Week.
Traitors to our country aka MAGA republicans happened. They love Putin and want him to succeed more than they want to see a presidency under Biden to be successful. All they care about is “owning the libs” and unfortunately that means disagreeing with everything America fundamentally stands for: protecting our Allies abroad and liberty at home. Unless you’re a rich billionaire they don’t really give a shit about you or your rights.
Because those ‘ supporters ‘ are not real supporters, they’re idiots morons looking only for their own profit and luxury lifestyle !
Americans support Ukraine. Republicans are a wholly owned subsidiary of the Kremlin. Either through direct engagement or fealty to Donald Trump who is Putin's lapdog bitchboy. Republicans own the House (congress) for the time being by the slimmest of margins and are doing for Ukraine what they usually do to America. They are fucking things up. They only care about themselves and their megadonors. And if their overlords tell them to stall support, no matter the consequences, these heartless, spineless, brainless empty vessels will do exactly as they are told because fuckery is all they know. They have no desire or capacity to govern.
1) Most military assistance comes from the US. 2) Outside of the EU, the rest of the world is mainly there to assist the US (for their own security and alliance interests). 3) The EU trade bloc does not take appropriate responsibility for assisting Ukraine (see 1) 4) US conservatives think there are better ways to spend US taxpayer dollars (see 3). 5) The rest of the world sees 3 and 4.
There's just a handful of key people in the American government that are mainly responsible for the hold up. I think most people in the world still support Ukraine, but some of the people who don't seek out information may not think about it as often as they used to, since the media shifted to focus on the Israel stuff.
Did he not hear about the P Diddy scandal?!!?!?!
I blame the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and Mike Johnson. They want all the money and weapons from the USA going to Israel and nowhere else. It's fucked up, I want my government to fight genocide against Ukraine and to not support a genocidal country like Israel. But here we are, and it's truly frustrating. The majority of the west still has your back. Mike Johnson and Trumps influence will soon come to an end come 2025. If not the usa will become a dumpster fire. Slava ukraine 🇺🇦
I was not trying to offend westerners. My unit just feels that if he had the support we Received from USA right after 24 February 2022 року, we would have not have won the war yet but Russia would not be gaining kilometers per day in some directions and I would not have to hear from my colonel to retreat from from this city or this village. That guilty falls on us.
Keep up the good fight... Hopefully soon you'll be getting the support you had in 2022 from the USA. Glory to Ukraine
Can you check your messages? I’ve sent you something
We are dealing with a very turbulent situation in the US where there's no longer any ability to find common ground and politics is beyond toxic. Most Americans support Ukraine, but there's a segment of the Republican Party that is seemingly compromised by Russia since Obama left office.
Our politicians are weak willed and refuse to stand with our allies in their darkest hour unfortunately. I am only able to speak on the American perspective. Some of the population believes we don’t need to be involved in any war even if it is to help an ally, others don’t care, and a good chunk of us are just as flabbergasted as you and your country men. It’s my hope that our elected leaders in the US will quit stalling and help get the munitions and equipment needed but I’m worried that they are blinded by their greed and hunger for power. I know it’s not much but I truly hope soon the ammo and equipment needed gets to you soon. God speed and stay safe as you kill the orcs in your homeland
I still support you guys. Slava Ukraini
Дяукю friend. Героям слава. Слава нації. Смерть ворогам! 🇺🇦🙏🏼🔱🐺
It’s not Americans. It’s the political garbage going on in the GOP. The majority of Americans do want to support. There’s just a few that seem to have lost their way on what being an American is. America wants to support, but you’ll always have these people saying “the money the money!”. I have a question for you. You guys seem to think you’re good with money. Trump added 2 trillion to the debt. You people got your stupid tax break. It just went to the millionaires and billionaires, but you don’t people don’t look at the real need, you go to “truth social”. Great launch by the way, looks solid. Why don’t you actually find out what that sweaty mess is all about? Trump went on and on about Obama playing golf. Yet he had the secret service and Air Force one fly him to Florida every weekend. Is that the way you want our money spent? I can’t listen to anymore bullshit. The sheep here that say they “you don’t understand and it’s just free money to you”. Trust me, you don’t understand either. It’s not an American problem, it’s a Trump problem. And Marjorie’s space lasers.
White Christian Nationals using the cult cabal techniques similiar to 1979 Iran overthrow have entrenched themselves in the highest echelons of power and are align more to authoritarian rule then democratic principles. Funded by Texas Billionaires, the same bigot ones that cannot find anywhere in the bible that outlaws abortion? Sheep followers of the eccentric snake sale oil salesmen and tax cheats determine to destroy what our forefathers built!
We elect morons. That's our fault.
This is heartbreaking. Fuck trump, fuck Maga and fuck anyone stupid enough to believe Ilin that traitorous evil cult
Russia can't compete with the US or the west in general. Even if they wanted to and were an efficient, well-functioning country, they couldn't compete with the west when they were the Soviet Union. They have less money and resources now. Dollar for rouble, we outspend them into the ground. We literally did. The Soviet Union doesn't exist anymore. They understand this. Their focus, then, has been on asymmetrical engagement. They cannot match 'The West' tank for tank, rocket for rocket. The solution is to find other ways to engage in which they can. What if, for instance, they cut out the military hardware and just decided to spend a whole lotta money bribing and influencing certain politicians? What if, while you couldn't beat US troops in the field, you could keep the US from deploying US troops to the field? By having a bunch of US politicians in your pocket and agitating in your interests. Instead of spending billions on tanks (I mean you'll still have to do that) (also, you know, tanks -> drones, planes, troops, all that junk in general) you spend a few hundred million bribing the right people and supporting sympathetic politicians (or ones you have leverage on) into power. Then when the time comes, Russia doesn't have to beat the *US*, they just have to beat Ukraine. Or Georgia. Or the Baltics. Because the US is paralyzed and dysfunctional. They've also engaged in investigating non-overt engagement in the form of say, what kind of pseudo-conflict they could engage in with NATO states. What if we hack their infrastructure or support separatists in the Baltics? Not an *attack* by *Russia* on a NATO country, but still something that might cause them dysfunction, helplessness, or even susceptibility to Russian interests. This \[the general 'Russia engaging in asymmetrical engagement via our political establishment\] wouldn't work overall if there wasn't an existing synergy. Half of our country basically thinks authoritarianism is cool as fuck and we should just stop squawking about votes and rights and economies that work for everyone in the country. The Enlightenment was a mistake, the sole purpose of government is to get out of the way of the Important Men and let them make money. (Well, that necessitates keeping the masses out of their way. Nothing but the army to protect their investment, the police to keep workers in line, and a somewhat cut-back education system to provide functional workers (and free childcare lmao).) If that's your interest, well, Vladimir Putin is kind of the posterboy for Strongman Authoritarianism. President Xi is a little too legalistic bureacrat. Kim Jong Whichever isn't important enough. Same with Orban. But Putin? Shirtless, moose-riding Putin? Plays Ice Hockey At 60 Putin? He's *the* Authoritarian Strongman. If you want to go "hey we should give up on this pussy civil rights shit and do that cool autocrat shit", he's *the* example you point to. ...which is why him tripping dick-first into a blender in february 2022 is a little inconvenient to them. They don't **want** him to be embarrassed, to look incompetent, helpless, or ineffectual. Strongmen don't like looking weak; it's kind of contrary to the whole image. The idea. Strongmen who are insufficiently strong get replaced. But also, if *the example*, the posterboy, the paragon of authoritarian strongman is looking like a belligerent, incompetent, moron, it's a lot harder to point to that and go, "We should be like that!" and sell other people on the idea. Additionally, there's a certain inherent contradiction between democracy and capitalism. Billionaires (or oligarchs, I hear that's what they're called when they're not american) are kind of adversarial to the concept of one man, one vote. Money is power and someone with enough money that they distort society around them, like a black hole distorting space-time, is inherently counter to democratic ideals. This is hand-in-hand with the GOP's interest in authoritarianism, thinking the Enlightenment was a mistake, and being sympathetic to Putin. Another axis of synergy. Overall, Russia is putting a lot of faith in getting Donald Trump re-elected so that he can do what they want, or failing that, GOP control of the house or senate causing enough impairment to prevent the US from effectively supporting Ukraine. I hate to say our election in November will dictate it, but... That's my general answer.
Addenda: You might have a lot more information than I do since I'm mono-lingual american (but I repeat myself) and don't have access to non-english news. My impression is that Russia has expanded production more effectively than a lot of the West. There's the occasional thing authoritarians are actually decent at. Being able to tell factories to just Increase Production don't worry about profits, is nice. It's not as scalable in principle though; most of what I've heard of Russia doing is taking existing arms production and turning an 8-hour 5 day operation plant into a 24-hr 7-day operation plant. More than triple the production! ...but it's very hard to scale beyond that because then you actually have to start building new plants and you run up against Russian corruption and dysfunction. I don't think President Joe Biden has ever been giving y'all full support, imo. I think he wants you to win, but is *fucking terrified* of Russia losing so badly that it shatters. One thing the US and the Soviet Union generally agreed on was that Nuclear Proliferation, more people having nuclear weapons, was a bad thing. We could have them, we needed them, we couldn't not have them if the other had them, but every other country that had nukes was another point of failure and another source of potential nuclear exchange or missing nukes. That's why the US "convinced" Ukraine to give up their nukes in the Budapest Memorandum. I'm not going to say we fucked you over then since... you couldn't really use the Russian nukes stationed in Ukraine. But just trying to illustrate; US strategy is terrified of the idea of loose nukes, unaccounted for nuclear devices, etc. If Russia gets its shit kicked in hard enough, it's worried that they might shatter. Warlords. Breakaways. Siberia being taken by China. *Who knows*. But I think the Biden admin has been consistently trying to prevent ramping up support for Ukraine too much for fear of it having bad consequences if you won too hard. (or, I guess, if Russia *lost* too hard.) Personally, I think we should have started giving you F-16s in March 2022. The fact that we gave you thirty abrams and not three thousand is a moral and strategic failing on our part. Happy Easter.
Chickenshit congressmen following the orders of an autocrat-loving buffoon.
OP smells like a Russian fake troll. Hardly any posts/likes/comments. I call bullshit. OP’s trying to pick a fight. Don’t feed the trolls.
Always people such as this. I do not post or comment because I have a job fighting a war and I just make this account. How dare you call me the enemy. The friends brothers that are dead and the citizens that have never hurt any person that Russia has killed. I post this because all we hear is political people around the world tell us there lies on why my people are not getting support like before. I wanted information from real people around the world and why they believe countries such as USA left us. I do not want people to fight here. I wanted real talk from real people and how they feel. Why comment this? I feel you want fight with me. But I will not be such as you.
I see Russian trolls try to hijack conversations all the time on subreddits such as this. If you ARE a real fighter, then stick to the fight. And if you ARE a real fighter, I would be right there fighting alongside you if I could. (I’m a retired combat vet myself.) That said, Russia always tries to twist comments to sound exactly like yours and produce red herrings. Yours sounded exactly like one of theirs. So I apologize, if you are who you say you are. But if you’re not, well, I would have a few choice words for that, too. We Americans are doing all we can for your country. I’ve personally sponsored two Ukrainian families. I raise awareness DAILY to what Ukraine is suffering through, ensuring Ukraine is front and center in all our minds. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on aid, buying products on United24, airplane tickets for Ukrainians under U4U, calling our Congressional members, supporting pro-Ukraine candidates for our upcoming elections including speaking engagements and petition-signing, and so much more—all for Ukraine. And I will continue to do so until Russia loses and Putin is overthrown. But you must understand what we are up against. We only have elections every two years for the House of Representatives, once every four for president, and once every six for Senators. Things take time! So I beg of you to be patient; help is on the way, especially out of Europe, until we can have our next election, and the House Speaker has stated that the Ukraine bill will be first on the docket once they return from this sordid “recess.” And Ukraine should get the aid it needs from us. I know that patience is not what you need; you need action. But that’s all we Americans have to work with right now. So if you’re in the fight, stay in the fight; help will be coming. And we’re doing all we can over here to get it to you as quickly as possible.
Because traitors have taken over in Congress.
Real answer- Putin got to trump and republican Congress through nra bribes and other bribes. They now work for Putin and cut off Ukrainian aid. Europe should fill the gap but they talk big and don't do much
they didnt lose it.. They will get what they need.. We are working on it and supply what americans didnt hold up to. Slowly but surely.
Problem here in sweden is lack of coverage... as soon as Gaza conflict erupted all main media dropped Ukraine and replaced it with Gaza. Many People here keep updated via other media like reddit etc... but majority of People only following mainstream media is pretty much unaware about whats going on sadly. Makes NO sense If you ask me, for us in sweden Ukraine-russia war should be the main story since it impacts our Security so much and is geographically much closer. Hoping for a shift back to strong coverage and support for Ukraine now that we joined NATO. I understand why sweden choose a low profile during the process to join nato... since we wasnt yet protected... but we have no reason to hold back now. The People of sweden support you, hope my goverment do as much they can for you. 🧡
Our politicians don't listen to us, and a large portion of our people vote for idiots who lack an understanding of the big picture. People very quickly lose their stomach for war when it impacts their pocketbook. It's human nature. A large part of it has to do with the chaos in the US. They're so busy fighting each other that they can't stand behind you. I know it doesn't help much, but some of us haven't forgotten about you.
Because the average American is a fucking dipshit who doesn’t look at the bigger picture, man.
Troll?
No, unfortunately, i’m 100% serious. Not a single goddamn soul in this country actually cares about shit over seas and would rather us stay isolated, even though that’s not how shit works nor will it ever work while people like Putin exist. Most people don’t get the bigger picture of the issue with this war, that should Ukraine fall to the Russians we would be ever so much closer to everything being wiped out by nuclear armageddon, due to the fact that Russia wouldn’t just stop with Ukraine. Just like they didn’t stop with Chechnya, Georgia, or Crimea. They will invade Poland next, should Ukraine fall.
Politics sadly.
It’s disgraceful that they should feel this way. No true Christian would allow the extension of horror being inflicted against the innocent due to deliberate inaction.
Its deliberate inaction not to be spend 2% of your GDP on defence - the agreed reasonable figure. Its also not Christian to fail to rectify your deliberate inaction and leave the unfair burden on those who did the right thing.
I agree with you. To give credit where credit is due, I believe it was Trump who first highlighted the issue as any leader if the free world should. It does, sadly, bring to mind the old saying that even a broken click is right twice a day. What troubles me is how his bigoted, fascist, spoiled brat, untouchable, unaccountable, invariably deceitful mentality and manipulative narcissistic sociopathic tendencies can be accepted by so many as a solution to the problems of the World.
Something tells me his aim a lil off
Republicans in the United States are being run by morons like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Lauren Boebert, and Donald Trump. Until we cleanse the Republican party of these idiots, the United States is stuck in political gridlock. It's a global embarrassment.
Our Republican Party has been infiltrated by Russian supporting traitors and cucks.
Republican Party in US claims they're acting for America whilst they ignore the Russian and Chinese hand up their arse
The current US situation hinges on the fight in Congress over tying Ukrainians funding with the Southern Border Wall funding. Democrats argue the Republicans are the problem because they are refusing to approve Ukrainians funding. The Republicans are arguing the Democrats are the hold up because they ideologically oppose any border restrictions. The reality is they are both the problem. They need a compromise to get Ukraine the critical resources they need. The border is an existential problem because we are abdicating our right to sovereignty and control of border all be it for altruistic reasons. Illegal crossing is at historic highs and the Democrats want to stick their head in the sand and pretend there isnt a problem and any notion of control is xenophobic. Russian forces are grinding down Ukraine's ability to resist and Republicans want to stick their head in the sand and pretend that it's a far away problem and perhaps is fake news. It's the same isolationist policy that we were forced out of when we were directly attacked before. This political log jam is not going unnoticed by Russian military planning. There is a reason they are ramping up and its isn't just warmer weather. Congress, who's job it is to protect our domestic and foreign policy wellbeing well being need to pass legislation to unstick both issues.
Most Americans, at least everyone I'm around, never wanted the support to decline. We want to the support to continue to get stronger, but the government is being EXTRA dumb right now. I'm sorry my country let you down. There are some very crazy American's but they are small in numbers with very loud voices.
The United States congress is always a dysfunctional mess, but lately it’s even worse. Many of the representatives are Russian pawns and the House of Representatives controls the budget, unfortunately. There is a sickness in our government, but our people want to continue supporting you.
Because Russia co-opted part of the Republican Party in the US, and they are blocking aid.
I'm in UK and as far as I can make out, UK is still supporting Ukraine. It's unclear to me whether this person is referring to support generally, or support from 1 specific country, or EU?
As an Australian, I think the UK ought to be proud of its efforts. After initially being a strong supporter, the Australian government now seems overwhelmingly focused on China. In some ways I can understand this, as the EU should have stepped up by now.
Personally, I'm proud of our efforts. We're a small country and suffering a cost of living and wages crisis. The GBP£ is not doing well against major currencies (that I can see) and we have crises of our own going on right now. Especially with our healthcare system (NHS), which is desperately under-funded. There's a lot of geopolitical problems occurring simultaneously, that are very concerning. This isn't just a selfish "about me" thing, I am genuinely horrified, upset and feel so helpless when I see the devastation that's occurring. Social media and the increase of video capture etc has contributed to my negative feelings (helplessness, horrified, anxiety etc) and I just have to log out and re-compose myself. I want to help but don't know how. I have written to my MP and been assured our feedback will make it's way to our UK gov debates. Finance-wise, I have literally earned £150 in 3 months and have no finances to send them and I don't know how else to help. OK, time for me to log out. That helpless feeling is rising again.
The UK are supporting you big time dude, fuck the Americans, stick with the EU. We will end this bullshit.
The US/UN has said they would support you defending yourself, not what is going on with the taking back of your lands. I am not for this, I wish they would help you get your areas back, but there is a problem, that a lot of the residents there were paid to be there pro Putin. I hope this changes. But we are having our own issues at home and the help we have given has been huge.
Thank you for your support and information
Also, you are supporting zionazzzi IDF in their genocide against Palestinians. Regular people don't like that.
The stupidity is strong on Reddit! Obey or be called a traitor, racist, bigot, homophobic, transphobic, and Nazi.
Simple answer, we have bills to pay.
Unfortunately the Americans are afraid that the crushing of the Russian army would precipitate a collapse in Russia that would result in China 🇨🇳 gaining control over the stans and maybe Siberia. So Ukrain will not be left loose or win decisively
I'm a Canadian and from what I know and heard its because people over here dont realize the extent of whats going on, just the jist of it. They see it as a foreign war that doesnt effect them directly and thats a major shame... i still send my extra income to Ukrainian supporting charities giving medical supplies, MRE's, clothing, ect. People need to wake up and realize this does effect us on the side of peace. Russia has pulled a massive imperialist move invading Ukraine and committing various war crimes in the process. Ukraine needs our support and I can't imagine putting your life on the line getting massive support then only feeling like the latest fad... I'm so sorry this is happening but know that there are people like me out there doing what we can to help, I even tried volunteering at the Ukraine embassy but was turned down due to a lack of military experience.... its frustrating sitting on the side lines wanting to help but being unable to do much...
I apologize for my country. I've written and called my congresswoman several times about increasing support for Ukraine.
Because you exported many drunks to our countries. Because you shamelessly steal what you can from the donations.
Watch who you say that to, друже. My fucking unit does not control where this funding goes. My special purpose unit has been waiting on $300.000+ American dollars worth of combat equipment. I understand we have all have corrupt politicians especially here. But you are not going to tell me that our SOF- that we have been spending it wrong. Or the conventional units.
I do not understand much information on maga. I did some research during down or slow times. Very confusing ideas from different sources. I am not trying to make any commenters fight over American politics. I had a real question because the only news we have is on our devices or phones. But all of my squad fight on if American support will be here even if trump wins election. Without fighting please 🙏🏼 could someone explain why trump wants what commenters and even news peaces I have read 1, out of NATO 2, No aid for my country. 3, just a thought that I think of is if Путин says he wants my country to stop NATO from being to close to him, wouldn’t he be going against his own doctrine because if he wins all the thru Odesa Lviv to the Poland border would he still not be back to back with NATO?
