There is really no downside for America to continue helping Ukraine defend themselves against Putin’s asinine invasion of their country. The one downside is expensive energy but now America is energy dominant and oil and gas haven’t been expensive since 2022…so the few months of expensive energy created windfall profits for American frackers a few years after the sector had record bankruptcies! Plus, as long as senators like Lindsey Graham and Ron Johnson exist we will spend $1 trillion every decade preparing for a war with Russia…so now we are getting great value for our defense spending thanks to the brave Ukrainian soldiers defending their country from aggression and degrading Russia’s military while they do it!
That said, Trump could easily end the war tomorrow—just give Putin the territory he already controls and provide Ukraine with a security guarantee if Putin crosses the new border. Putin will throw a tantrum but will he really risk an escalation that results in nuclear war??
There are several things I would like you to consider:
The break up of the Russian Federation in the interests of western bankers and corporations is a long term project spanning many generations. The UK and Russia were playing 'The Great Game' for influence in Central Asia and India since the 1800's. America as the greatest economic power in the world has taken over this deadly game and it is playing it to this day.
In 2014 There was a CIA backed coup in which NAZIs helped to remove the democratically elected president of Ukraine in favour of the Western backed alternative. The Ukrainian regime ordered and carried out ethnic cleansing of Russian speakers in the Donbass and Crimea. The Russian speakers rose in armed rebellion.
The Ukraine tried to crush the rebellion but failed and were forced to sign the Minsk agreements in 2015 which were cynically signed to buy time for the US and NATO allies to arm and train Ukraine's army so it could defeat the Donbass rebels along with Russia's military and bankrupt it at the same time.
The Ukraine launched a campaign targeting the Russian speaking population of Donbass immediately prior to the Russian invasion. They claim they were entitled to do so because it would prevent barbaric ethnic cleansing.
All wars in the end are fought for land and resources, the Ukraine is no different. It contains $Trillions in mineral resources most of which were in the Donbass. Since the outbreak of the 'Special Military Operation'/war Russia has acquired economic control over 11 $Trillion in resources the US and its NATO allies had earmarked for their banks and corporations to control and exploit. At the same time Russia has annexed The Crimea, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizha, Kherson regions. There is no guarantee they have finished. This has consequences for the likes of Vanguard and Blackrock who as I understand it have been buying up Ukranian land and assets from the corrupt Ukrainian regime.
According to US Defense estimates the US has spent "$65.9 billion since the
beginning of Russia’s unprovoked and brutal invasion on February 24, 2022." on military aid. Diverted from the US economy and financed with debt on which the banks make profits along with the profits for the defense companies. The US/Ukraine money laundering corruption is legendary.
The US and NATO's arrogant miscalculation of a changing world has forced the formation of greatest military and economic threat to their economic and military empires in the form of the BRICS+ organisation
Oh Yes and $36Trillion in debt and counting to finance 800+ military bases, bioweapons laboratories along with an astonishing lack of accountability which led Donald Rumsfeld to say the Dept of Defense could not account for $2 Trillion. He did this with a straight face.
The consequences for the US and the West of provoking and supporting this Ukrainian proxy war are only just getting started.
I hope the Trump administration can extricate us all from this nightmare and stop the bankster led war industry onslaught which has cost the lives of over a million human beings.
Resources and land are no longer important. America is energy dominant and we produce so much food the biggest health issue is obesity. Putin invaded Ukraine because his sense of entitlement is off the charts—he believes Ukraine should be Russia’s little sister in perpetuity. Ukrainians want to be part of the West and after Putin’s asinine death and destruction Ukraine will never go back to Russia’s sphere of influence!
And you mention Rumsfeld—Putin gets the “George W Bush Award” for being a dumbass on a global scale!! Just like America had to cut our losses in Iraq and Afghanistan Putin must do the same is Ukraine. Superpowers can lose wars…it’s like gambling—don’t play if you can’t afford to lose because then you will go from looking like James Bond to Joe Blow crying at the casino. Putin has lost…and now he’s just throwing a tantrum that is resulting in senseless death and destruction!

There is a lot more but that will do for now.
