That puts him at odds to a degree against Rep. Greene (R-Ga) and Florida Gov. DeSantis…..
The former Vice President says he’ll annouce if he’s in a 2024 run in a month or two….
Mike Pence on Friday rebuked fellow Republicans who have given less-than-robust support for America’s defense of Ukraine — a group that includes potential presidential campaign rivals like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, NBC News reports.
Said Pence: “I would say anyone that thinks that Vladimir Putin will stop at Ukraine is wrong.”
He added: “While some in my party have taken a somewhat different view, there can be no room in the leadership of the Republican Party for apologists for Putin.”
Both Trump and DeSantis ,who right now represent around 75% or so of the Republican Party ,Are openly skeptical if not downright opposed to increasing aid to Ukraine.
The Republican Party is really split on this issue.
Maybe….
But aid WILL continue…..
Biden/Blinkin just announced more….
McConnell and a recent group of House Republican’s have said publicly they support the effort…..
Greene and few others are talking shit….
They are just noise….
That said?
Zelensky seems to be softening his terms for a possible settlement….
My view is he will NOT get back to the pre-2022 borders….
The Ukraine has and NEEDS one last major offense to get as much as they can before a deal is done….
The West (Pentagon & NATO) have told Zelensky he’s NOT gonna get Crimea back….
It’s a hard military lift and ANY deal needs Putin to be able keep it or share it as ‘free zone’…
The Republican chorus IS correct in saying the conflict needs to be over NOT much past the Summer….
It’s draining the West of arms and the US IS worried about China….
We haven’t had a two conflict thing going since WWII….
Again….
The F-16 a full tank stuff is primarily for AFTER the conflict….
And the Poles ARE scared about Putin’s possibe next step…
Poland and the Ukraine will end up being the most heavily armed nations in Europe
