Could Biden’s Ukraine war policy spell November Democratic disaster?


US Ukraine war policy is disastrous on several levels.
Refusing to promote negotiations to end the war while pumping in over $50 billion in weaponry to prolong the war, could still lead to a nuclear dust up between US and Russia.
While that is not certain, the thousands of needless Ukrainian deaths and destruction of their now failed nation, enabled in part from US support, certainly are.
Our support also spurs worldwide economic damage being inflicted on the world’s poor from US economic sanctions against Russia that have failed spectacularly. Rising fuel and food prices are expanding worldwide poverty by the millions, while Russia finds a work around trading with most of the world that rejects US self-destructive sanctions. Outside of NATO and NATO wannabe members, Russia and its partners are rejecting the almighty dollar to trade in rubles, rupees and yuan.
In the US, gas over $5/gallon to fuel our 276 million gas guzzlers is foremost in voters’ minds, not fueling the lost war in Ukraine, regardless of how much sympathy occurred when Russia invaded, after years of US, NATO and Ukraine provocations. When Biden was asked how long US support for Ukraine would continue in spite of rising energy costs, he said “As long as it takes”.
Biden is risking the entire progressive agenda come November 3 by ignoring the Homeland to fight a proxy war against Russia only supported by rapacious US weapons makers and our delusional national security establishment.
Come to think of it, that ‘As longs as it takes’ may just be 120 days away till the November 8, election, less time than the Russian Ukraine war we’ve now prolonged for 138 days.
