One Day History Will Ask, "Who Lost Ukraine?" And We Already Know The Answer: Señor Trumpanzee



Yesterday, Biden announced another $2.5 billion in military aid for Ukraine. “As I committed earlier this year, the Department of Defense has now allocated all remaining USAI funds appropriated by Congress in the supplemental that I signed in April, and my Administration is fully utilizing the funding appropriated by Congress to support the drawdown of U.S. equipment for Ukraine. I’ve directed my Administration to continue surging as much assistance to Ukraine as quickly as possible— including drawing down older U.S. equipment for Ukraine, rapidly delivering it to the battlefield, and then revitalizing the U.S. defense industrial base to modernize and replenish our stockpiles with new weapons. The Department of Defense is in the process of delivering hundreds of thousands of artillery rounds, thousands of rockets, and hundreds of armored vehicles which will strengthen Ukraine’s hand as it heads into the winter.  At my direction, the United States will continue to work relentlessly to strengthen Ukraine’s position in this war over the remainder of my time in office.”


Presumably Trump could stop whatever aid hasn’t been delivered once he gets into office. Between pardoning the violent J-6 insurrectionists, deporting 10 million undocumented workers and putting up inflationary and recessionary trade barriers— all on his first day back in the Oval Office, Señor T has also pledged to end the war in Ukraine. That’s one that’s surely not going to happen. On Sunday, the Kremlin rejected his secret peace proposal— part of which defers Kyiv’s NATO membership for at least 20 years in exchange for a ceasefire. Trump is also proposing a “demilitarized zone” in the parts of Ukraine seized by Russia, although Ukraine would cede some of its occupied territory to Russia, including parts of Luhansk, Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia.


Foreign Minister Sergey Lazrov told TASS that “We are certainly not satisfied with the proposals made by representatives of the president-elect’s team to postpone Ukraine’s membership in NATO for 20 years and to deploy a peacekeeping contingent of ‘UK and European forces’ in Ukraine.”

Isn't all that "negotiatin'" in violation of Logan? OH I forgot. If you won't enforce a law, it isn't a law.
