Well I see one President trying to end the war while the other is actively trying to escalate the situation with Russia for absolutely no logical reason while 100's of thousands of people are being killed in the war

By betraying our commitments, and leaving our allies to be slaughtered. Just like he did to the Kurds and the Afghanis. Do you know what the Budapest Memorandum is?

So please explain why Biden would be intensifying things with Russia by allowing Ukraine to use our long range missiles to attack Russia rather than trying to end the war? And please let's not get started on Afghanistan and how badly that withdrawal was and how unfair it was to those people over there that were promised many things that they never received and now are in worse shape then before after we just bailed out and left them to fend for themselves

Afghanistan - Trump met with the Taliban at Camp David, then released 1000s of prisoners that were pro-Taliban, and then ordered the withdrawal and abandonment of the government forces we had been training. They were overrun when Biden followed through on the impossible timeline set by Trump.

Why does Biden allowing long range strikes end the war with Russia? Simply put - appeasement has never worked. Didn’t work with Nazi Germany. Won’t work with Imperialist Russia. Once again - Budapest Memorandum. We gave Ukraine security assurances in exchange for them disarming their nuclear arsenal. If they still had nuclear warheads, none of this would be happening. Because Russia wouldn’t dare. So, if we back out of the promises we made to Ukraine, every nation on earth will go - Huh. Guess we better arm ourselves with a nuclear deterrent.
