Who would be most pleased if we abandoned Ukraine?
Is it hard to guess who is most pleased and excited by the
Republican efforts to tie aid to Ukraine to our immigration problem?
Congress has been battling for decades about immigration reform. There’s no solution to immigration that will come quickly.
The person who is most excited by this stalemate is someone who made a rash decision that has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of his own people. It’s someone who is now up for election, though elections there seldom hold surprises. It’s someone former President Donald Trump has called “brilliant.”
It’s someone Trump believed over our own intelligence community. It’s someone who would love to see our country forced to renege on our word, poisoning our leadership in the world. It’s Vladimir Putin. The Republican Party is trying its hardest to give Putin Ukraine, his most desired Christmas gift.
Why would that be?
