Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) said Sunday that the United States needs to accept that Ukraine will likely need to “cede some territory” to Russia to end the fighting. Vance told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” that he is opposed to sending more aid to Ukraine because he does not believe the country will ever be able to overpower Russia. He questioned why sending billions in aid to Ukraine is going to help the country at this point in its war against Russia, considering previous aid has yet to end the war. “What’s in America’s best interest is to accept Ukraine is going to have to cede some territory to the Russians, and we need to bring this war to a close,” Vance said. “But when I think about the great human tragedy here, hundreds of thousands of Eastern Europeans innocent have been killed in this conflict. The thing that’s in our interest and in theirs is to stop the killing.”

      What a cute ass comment, I guess? Would totally make sense if there wasn’t the fact of a trump presidency.

      Now tell me how that can’t happen again.

        It can happen again because the election system in the US is a fucking travesty.

        All I meant to say was that there is no way 50% of Americans support Republican bullshit. More like a solid 30% who are gerrymandered and electoral colleged into power.

        Pretty happy you found it cute though!.

          That’s why I said voters. It doesn’t matter, that’s not the point. Point is, it can happen again. Just a few slip ups from a frail octogenarian known for having slip ups. You think EU can pick up the slack? All they do is make vague promises then end up sueing eachother.
