Donald Trump has many faults but Harris is wrong-- it is better to negotiate with enemies than to support endless wars. #Debate2024

@rchusid Absolutely. This is one of the few areas Trump was correct.

@freemo @rchusid Yeah, I hope Ukraine can win completely, but US giving them just enough weapons to keep fighting but in inadequate quantities or with too many restrictions to actually win seems like the worst possible thing we could be doing.

Also Trump was right on in saying Europe should deal with this; they easily could if they had the resolve. Follow Poland's lead.

@ech Eurppe is no more responsoble forr ukraine than we are. I donagree thouvh we have to either support them fully or be neutral. Half commiting to one side of a war is wasteful and immoral. It only drags things out.

@freemo yeah, think of how much blood is on our hands because of this.

re. Europe: I'm not saying Europe is *responsible*; that isn't my point; I'm just noting there's more at stake for them than for the US.

@ech I dunno alaska is pretty close to russia. Anything that has russia gaining power will be bad for us. Its not.like resoirces from the west of russia cant easily get to the east.

@freemo yeah but like come on they aren't going to invade Alaska.

@ech They arent? I mean fear of ruasia invading alaska is tbe whole reason we took alaska over. They ha e shown already they will happily invade anywhere thry think they can win.

@freemo I don't know, I think Russia was more the one entering that deal out of fear of invasion (from Britain), but I suggest the geopolitical realities are maybe a bit different these days.
