> I don't care about Ukraine/Tiwan/Vietnam, and the government should not either, it aint our problem. We can literally nuke Russia or China or DPRK if they try to invade or nuke us.

Whilst Ukraine may not be the USAs problem they are literally decimating Russias armed forces with American table scrapes effectively.

It’s likely one of the best return on investments that the USA has ever gotten on an investment into a war they aren’t involved in.

Literally don’t care, it’s not our problem to be the world police. Where is my free healthcare/college/6mo of parental leave?

Oh wait, we gave a bunch of weapons to Ukraine so they could fight Putin when they were stupid enough to give up their nukes in the 90s with the Russian bear on their doorstep. Some weapons makers also made a lot of money, but you don’t hear democrats talking about that (I’m looking at you Maria Cantwell lol).

We’ve basically been gaslit into believing this is a moral imperative to support giving $$$ to Ukraine and many other countries. This is illogical it should be America First!

Decimating Russias armed forces whilst not losing a single active duty American soldier is literally America first.

It's the first war that America has been involved in, in a long time that is easily morally justifiable and has a clear good side and bad side.
