Ukraine isn’t part of NATO
This is a European conflict and should be handled by Europeans.
Remember wars can be fought between two bad guys

Ok so putin is bad so your solution is to let it continue on for a few more years and eventually russia has all of ukraine. Sounds like a good plan.

Who says let it continue? Russia has been getting fucked up in Ukraine. An operation that was supposed to take a week or so has gone on for three years and has completely devastated Russia's military. Ukraine could have been their Afghanistan round 2, but we have a Russian asset as a President.
 
Where the Biden administration made a critical mistake, in my opinion, is putting so many restrictions on how Ukraine was able to use the weapons we provided to them. If we were going to provide weapons and aid, it should have been unconditional and they should have been able to prosecute the war how they saw fit. I think that Ukraine could have outright defeated Russia- not just stalemated, but actually dealt them a crippling, crushing defeat a la Afghanistan in the 80’s. IMO it will go down as one of our biggest foreign policy mistakes, second only to the Trump 2.0 administration actually surrendering both Ukraine *and* America’s global superpower status in one fell swoop.
 
Never mind every Democratic president- how is that every single *conservative* POTUS for the last 8 decades- Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Bush, Bush- has believed that Russia is public enemy #1, yet Trump now openly fellates them in front of the entire world, and….Republican apologists applaud it? It’s almost like….wait for it….and stay with me here!….today’s Republicans ain’t conservative!

Maybe, but I don't really fault them for easing into the "going to war with a nuclear state" pond. Decades of American foreign policy were built on the premise that a war with Moscow could be species-threatening.

I can't think of anything more laughably inconsistent with the fundamental principles of our country than the idea that the people who lose an election should not bother protesting or calling attention to the obviously stupid, misguided, dangerous, and illegal things the current administration is doing.
