    My dude the training and arming of Ukraine by NATO started happening before Trump came into office.

    Trump tried blocking the Javelins in 2018. He wasn’t for it. He was convinced ultimately to follow longstanding US foreign policy that started before he got there.

    Yes he approved it. 1 scenario where he got out of the way. Neat.

    What’s his stance been since? And before?

        Let me get this straight.

        After the Republican Party, largely led by Trump, have stymied aid to Ukraine and generally been pro Russia.

        The motherfucker was for all intents and purposes outed as a Russian asset during congressional hearings.

        Now Trump makes a politically pragmatic statement (backed up by no action or calls for his party to turn and support Ukraine) and suddenly we’re supposed to think he’s on their side?

        Neuromancer you have got to be one of the dumbest motherfuckers to exist if you think you’re fooling anyone.

        As well, a condition was placed on the sale of the Javelin anti-tank missiles: They could only be stored in western Ukraine, away from the conflict, to be used as a deterrent.

        Yeah… okay, and threatened to withdraw support unless he helped him politically. Really lovely.
