It's not misinformed at all. The US's involvement in the Ukraine war is strictly along party lines. The Biden's have been involved in Ukraine at nearly every level for decades now. There are several high profile politicians in the US with ties to Ukranian companies. We flew a Ukranian flag in our congress. That should tell you everything.

There is not a "war" except one caused by politicians. The price eggs and gasoline in the US are not a function of this war. I could not care less and I certainly do not want to send our boys to die for a politician's dirty laundry. Whatever happens over there is a problem of the EU, not mine, and not anyone I care about. Being a "good global citizen" is pointless agitprop from BlackRock ESG. My life is already too complicated. It would be wise of us to not go about pissing off nuclear powers especially when the US is as fundamentally weak both in the spirit of what it stands for and leadership as it is today. Eisenhower tried to warn us and none of us listened.
