Spin it all you want. We gave up on democracy in Afghanistan, only to resume the fight in Ukraine. All we did is trade one expense for another expense while edging us closer to a nuclear WWIII to boot. All of this also increased inflation. We should have just stayed where we were.The nation building effort in Afghanistan officially ended on Feb 29th. 2020. We never should have had a nation building effort in the first place. Russia had already invaded and was already occupying parts of Ukraine.
I think conservatives acting and voting as a party are a stronger restraint on government spending that liberals who think government spending is the solution to every problem

Trump and his conservative base won the white houseThe problem is those you consider Conservatives never do what they actually claim they will do and then you will pretend they never were Conservatives to start with and make all kinds of excuses.
The best example is 7.8 trillion in new debt under Trump in 4 years.
It's never the "Conservatives" fault despite them either voting or signing off on all of it.
Trump and his conservative base won the white house
But we didnt win the house and senate
Maybe with your support we could have
Seems to me we were saying similar things just before Hitler almost took over the entire world.What we did in Afghanistan was right. What we are doing in Ukraine is wrong.

We tried to spread our ideology with the barrel of a gun in a 20 year occupation of their nation. The Ukraine wants to join the West. Afghanistan does not.We gave up on democracy in Afghanistan, only to resume the fight in Ukraine.
Thank you for your appraisal Comrad pknopp. You must be a Putin mole.There is no war there at all if saner, rational heads all around had prevailed.
We helped provoke it.
Do tell.There is no war there at all if saner, rational heads all around had prevailed.

Spin it all you want. We have traded a war in Afghanistan for a war in Ukraine, putting the entire world closer to a nuclear WWIII than we have ever been. If we hadn't let Afghanistan fall, Russia would not have invaded Ukraine and we would not be where we are today, including rampant inflation.We tried to spread our ideology with the barrel of a gun in a 20 year occupation of their nation.

Fantiful speculation and contrary to known reality. Russia invaded Ukraine while we were occupying Afghanistan. Inflation was caused mostly by OPEC+ cuts in production and their failure to increase production to meet the rising demands while the world's economies came back after the Covid scare. The Russian invasion added to that for a while.If we hadn't let Afghanistan fall, Russia would not have invaded Ukraine and we would not be where we are today, including rampant inflation.
Whats wrong with you?The first two years the Republicans held all three

You keep telling us that the swamp rats in washington are just in it for themselves
Trump needed a majority MAGA in congress and he didnt have it
As opposed to what?Trump signed off on all of it. Trump even argued with Nancy Pelosi to give more money away than we already were.
Maybe there are some valid points to be made but Trump is mentally unable to address any of them. You don't address these issues with childish name calling and rants. While I doubt I will agree with many of the positions Gaetz and the rest will take, they were able to accomplish (at least for now) what they wanted.
Trump can't do that. He has no part of his make up that will allow that.
True. Russia invaded Ukraine while we were occupying Afghanistan.The truth remains the truth.
Do you know why that toilet seat is $700? It is made so the skin on your ass doesn't freeze to it while flying in an unheated aircraft at high altitude. It's called MIL-SPEC.Yeah, I know there are always horror stories about how the poor US military is underfunded.
Balance that with those $700 toilet seats and other massive cost-overrun horror stories.
Then add to that the FACT that China steals US research.
The FACT is that the US DOD gets more funding than the next 10 militaries COMBINED.
The US simply cannot afford to over-budget the military any more. Call it a fiscal reality.
So unless you have a plan to raise revenue to pay for more DOD spending, military spending needs to be cut.
