Former Vice President Mike Pence remains committed to doling out military aid for Ukraine against Russia’s invasion if he wins the presidency in 2024. He isn’t very good at explaining why voters should agree with him.
The Associated Press interviewed Pence about the “call for limited military assistance to Ukraine” from former President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), his top GOP rivals. “With all due respect,” he said, “I think the former president and the governor of Florida just don’t understand Americans’ national interest in supporting the Ukrainian military in repelling the Russian military in Ukraine.”

Sorry, Pence, throwing taxpayer money at lost causes is dim policy. Ukraine cannot defeat Russia no matter what weapons or how much taxpayer money is spent. This is not about "democracy". Ukraine is not a democracy but a currupt pseudo dictatorship and the West is the collective dictator and zellenskyy is their puppet.
IMO putin is waging a war of attrition which is draining the west's resources.
If he commits his A Team this conflict will end quickly but he doesn't want to have to occupy all of Ukraine - just the traditionally pro Russian Eastern Oblasts.

the whole scenario being played out in Ukraine is to enhance the stature of joebiden and militarily deplete the resources of our military
joebiden is the biggest dirty trickster who has ever been in that office and is, as we all know, incapable of performing the duties of that office

Pence is more of a cheerleader for corruption then virtue. The sad fact is that the dope doesn't even know the difference.

Biden just said our munitions are real low and he has spent all our money over there. What is left for us but a bankrupt hungry lawless nation. He sacrificed all we have. How has this helped us or the world?

Pence, we are no longer the war hawks the Bushes tricked us into being. We see the corporate interests and corrupt politicians using taxpayer dollars to enrich themselves to our detriment. We cannot afford this. Ukraine is corrupt, as is Russia, but neither is as corrupt as the democrats and stupid rinse-and-repeat republicans.

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing as they must if they believe they can do nothing. There is nothing worse because the council of despair is declaration of irresponsibility; it is Pilate washing his hands.

I dunno' #9. I think he believes 'his act'. Morality aside, I suspect the real problem with Pence is a certain deficit in the brains department.

Despite the doomsday warnings, we didn't endlessly support South Vietnam. Yeah, things initially got pretty brutal for the locals but Southeast Asia seems to be doing quite well these days.

How do wars end? One side is flatted (see Japan in August 1945), one side quits (see Germany in 1918), or there is a negotiated ceasefire (Korea 1953). Eventually Ukraine will run out of manpower, weapons, or both if we continue on the current path.

Great idea, Pence. Talk down to the people as though you understand something and they could not possibly do so…
Your faux loftiness, your bogus sense of superiority, your baseless superciliousness… Take them back to Indiana and stay there.

Ya know...if we had spent just 1/4 of what we have sent to Ukraine on completing more wall...the enforcement, support, resettlement, housing, healthcare, legal aid and education spending on the GREATER NUMBER of Illegal interlopers that have crossed OUR border, than the number of Russians that crossed Ukraines...would have left us with EXTRA money to give them, IF that is what we decided to do with it. Defending OUR Border, would pay for defending THEIRS. Instead we are just throwing borrowed money at BOTH, welcoming crossers at ours, and killing the crossers of theirs.

It is also known as the consequences of you not listening to the requests of a lot of states to not certify the election. You had to go ahead and do it anyway didn't you? You are culpable Judas Pence.

OK, educate me. What is our national interest in getting involved with Ukraine, other than maintaining the corrupt cashing in privileges for our "elites"?
Or is it that it's only OK to invade a sovereign nation when we do it?
After which we always seem to lose.

Pence will be around as long as the money keeps flowing to him. He's dead in the water except for the support and FREE attention he gets in the various media by those who hate TRUMP
Ukraine has bankrupted our country when the Vegetable tells people publicly that we are "running out of ammo".
Where do are these funds coming from to keep this crap going?? In the case f the Vegetable, evidently he can circumvent Congress who Constitutionally has to vote approval to spend money.
As the GREAT Rush Limbaugh taught us-- FOLLOW THE MONEY!
