Biden is still largely responsible for this. If it were up to that orange pedo, all support would be cut off. He has already tried to cut the payments, but failed.

Biden is responsible for not prosecuting Trump when he was in the crosshairs. And Biden is responsible for ratcheting tensions in the Middle East when he should have been fortifying Europe. And Biden is responsible for falling into the same "Looming Threat of China!" trap that Dick Cheney set nearly 30 years ago, forcing the two countries together after Nixon/Kissinger had so neatly split them apart.

If it were up to that orange pedo, all support would be cut off.

Trump was dumping billions of dollars into the Ukrainian defense budget in 2018.

This blind insistence on Trump being a "Putin Puppet" is in direct odds with US foreign policy going back to Obama. Trump's interested in Trump and has been more than happy to break bread or turn coat on anyone and everyone.

I’m not from the U.S. Still, I’m familiar with most of this. Nevertheless, Trump reportedly wanted to slash aid to Ukraine drastically at the start of his second term.

But yes, I completely agree with you. I’ve never been able to understand why so many U.S. citizens are always looking for some kind of foreign “agent” to explain the crimes of their own government. You hear time and again that Trump is a puppet of either Russia or Israel or whomever.

I do consider him a puppet as well, but one who essentially acts on behalf of U.S. billionaires, while shamelessly enriching himself while doing so.

I think the most important thing would be for U.S. citizens to finally realize that their worst enemies are their own so-called elite.

Given the way that impeachment ended, I'm sure a lot of people would like if we did
