I'm in favor of Mexico as the 51st state
Have long said take the US to them and save them the trip here

Can we offer this Ukranian solider a scholarship?

I've still not seen any concise summary of the benefits to the common US citizen. I've gotten we are all getting rich selling weapons to the Ukraine for which we will never get paid and then it is off to some moral imperative and it will make us feel good and finally we won World War II. No discussion of Vietnam outside of they hate China, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Syria. So, still waiting, like the Throbber waiting on the dazzler's homework project.
My reading is that Bot wants dead Russians stacked like cord wood
In and of itself Putin failing is a good thing
I've said my piece numerous times already

If the Republican's wanted to win, then not one more dime for Ukraine until the US borders are secured.

Not so much dead Russians. It's sad how many people from poorer regions of Russia are being forcefully conscripted and sent to WW1 level hell
I think Bot and I want a neutered Russia that no longer views the rest of the world as enemies, and instead as trading allies.
Russia had flip flopped on whether or not the West is friends or Nazis for hundreds of years, with some good causes for skepticism (Hitler and Napoleon)
However, there are also numerous morally bankrupt fuckups like Holodimir, Finnish Invasion, "Special Militarty Operation", false flag terrorist attacks blamed on Chechnya, etc etc.
Russia is now neutered except for nukes. Turns out it was neutered before the Ukraine invasion.
Those pesky nukes.
Mostly peaceful nukes, I'm quite certain.
Jews can't wait until the Iranian mullahs get nukes. Smart move is to just close your eyes, relax and enjoy it.
Ironically during the Mexican American War that was literally the debate. Just annex all of Mexico.
Then they realized that meant all those swarthy brown catholics like @creepycoug would get to vote in future elections though.
The only reason Baja isn't another state or two is because that was one of the only victories the Mexican army had and it was determined that re-invading it wasn't worth it since that would create a long hard to defend coastline anyways.
I should probably read a history book though.

Since Quooks can't read good and other stuff too, for review:
Benefits of arming Ukraine[/b]
- End of the Russian Military threat for at least a generation
- Destruction of the "multipolar" NWO
- Revitalization and modernization of NATO at a massive discount
- Clearing out cold war era stock from NATO at a discount instead of paying for disposal
- No longer needing cold war era stock for the Russian threat, this is now a one threat environment(ChYnA) i.e. The US can focus on ChYnA and the Pacific and let NATO actually pull some weight
- The USA getting to be the one to sell all those arms to NATO
- Sales of which literally pulled the US out of a recession currently(REcession bad mmkay)[/b]
- All the implied economic benefits of those sales for literally the next 30-40 years as countries are integrated into the US defense industy umbrella
- The elimination of Russian competition for essentially ALL defense spending exports the world over
- Geo-strategic destruction of the economy of a major rivals primary trading partner (Russia Russia Russia and ChYnA)
- The end of Russian meddling in basically anywhere that isn't a post soviet country (Like the Middle East or funding far left groups in the USA[/b])
- The likely addition of Sweden and Finland to NATO which has all kinds of positive geo-strategic implications and little downside.
- It also means we get to sell them things and benefit from that synergy(They both have really good R&D and design environments for one).
- The showcasing of US military capability and re-elevation after the Afghanistan debacle to "big swinging dick". Insurgencies are hard but we can still fuck any standing army on the planet.
- Sales of arms to Taiwan and the Pacific region as a deterrent to ChYnA
- Smaller countries re-evaluating who their bedfellows are in a world where big countries have the right to invade them under the premise of "national security" Hi @pawz !
- Essentially returning the American led group back to "has no near-peer" status so fuck off.
- Putin getting his nuts kicked in is as @RaceBannon said, "In and of itself a good thing"
All this without spilling a drop of American blood.
TBC, no US/NATO troops, no advanced tech(ex. F-15), and the GOP not named Cheney/Romney should be examining every ounce of spending, pork, and corruption they can find and making hay.
The ONE reason for the Federal government to legitimately exist is for defense. There's about 20 reasons this serves US defense interests. "BUT RUSSIA DOESN'T THREATEN THE US" the quooks cry! Except that it does, all the time, and that we are currently in a 5th generation war with them and the CCP. They literally write about it in their think tanks and publish publicly available white papers on how to end the US led world order. Welcome to the party.
Sorry not sorry, REALPolitik is fucking ugly and brutal but trying to avoid it just means you'll be a victim of it. See ChYnA vs. the US for the past 20-30 years.

Oh sweetheart, ChYnA and Russia are definitely trying to establish their own NWO or whatever you'd like to call it.
Or do you think all those Chinese Billions paid to our politicians are just for funzees?

It's hard
Still makes more sense than anything Checkers has brought forth.
Democracy! is the big winner.
Stick to the script.
