The United States of America is being destroyed by Validimir Putin. Just like he wants to.
That is, the United Sates of America is being destroyed by Donald J Trump. Just like Putin is telling him to.
That is, the United Staes of America is being destroyed by the Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives, White Christian Nationalist Mike Johnson, just like trump is telling him to.
How? By destroying the confidence of America’s allies in the ability and willingness of America to honor our commitments and protect them against invasion. All of NATO is watching Putin/Trump/Johnson refuse to send $60 billion of military aid to Ukraine. China is watching too. Taiwan is watching, I am sure. Not to mention history is watching.
Is this the end of Pax Americana? Do Republican politicians watch Russians kill those on the front lines defending democracy and resisting autocracy and root for Putin? So far, that is what it looks like to me. (None of this has anything to do with the border, “the border” is just the cover story- this is about helping Putin and turning America’s back on its honorable commitments)
Everyone in Ukraine knows Mike Johnson’s name and how the pro-Putin Trump is telling him what to do. Ukrainian morale is being harmed, and as we know Ukraine has always been overmatched but successful because of their fierce fighting spirit. So Putin is clear that breaking the spirit of Ukraine is his key. Trump knows it too. As does Johnson. But they are on Putin’s side. Johnson because he sees Putin as an ally in hating gays and controlling women. Trump because…Putin says nice things about him.
By the way, most the money for Ukraine goes to Americans who manufacture the weapons for Ukraine.
It is up to the Republicans in the House to force Johnson to allow a vote which will pass with both Democrat and Republican votes. Are there any Republicans left in the “Republican Party”. Or are they all just MAGA zombies and cowering hypocrites unable to just say no to Putin/Trump?
