    Unfortunately, the Republican senators mentioned also have a very hard time allocating funds to programs that help Americans too.

      Yep. In the US you are given two options. One is trash and the other is worse.

      I can’t believe I’m agreeing with Trump and the other Republicunt politicians who bow down to him. For whatever reason he has determined being anti-war is politically advantageous.

      Which might work out for him. Inflation & instability & war aren’t great sales points for a presidential election. Biden’s numbers jumped for a little bit after the invasion but people will get fatigued with an endless stalemate. And worse, if Ukraine loses we essentially threw away hundreds of billions.

      High stakes game our politicians are playing being so hard and loose with money
