McConnell on Ukraine proxy war: "We haven’t lost a single American in this war. Most of the money that we spend, is spent on replenishing weapons, so it’s actually employing people here."[paraphrased]
The White House on Wednesday downplayed CNN polling showing most Americans oppose Congress providing additional funding to support Ukraine in its war with Russia ahead of a reported administration request for more aid.
Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.
Exact full quote from CNN:
“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

Oof. Ruskie shills all up in these comments.
It's really sad when the Russian shills are so good that you can't even think of a rebuttal
Oof.
I really don't get how evaluating this quote as honest makes one a Russian shill.
It's as if you could either be the good guys or the bad guys, and if the good guys are not so good, then you're justifying the bad guys. This whole thought process makes me feel as if my brain was dying right now.
I mean, it must be pure charity, sending all those armaments etc to Ukraine while happily ignoring lots of other countries invaded over the last 10 years, right?
(I'm definitely not a shill, cause I write this openly from Moscow.)
That's an unwarranted assumption. It's perfectly possible that they are already familiar with your arguments and are uninterested in relitigating the issue with idiots. Certainly that would be my position.
Your only mistake was to respond instead of blocking them.
Tfw they are so right you gotta block them at first sight.
lol like I'd waste my time.
God forbid you organize your thoughts to the point they're coherent. Then you could just have a copypasta ready to go. But for some reason you can't even find one someone else wrote for you.
you're posting on lemmy, its all a waste of time
maybe the
only pays for the initial derailing post attempt, not the followup quarter-assed defense of "international rules-based order" that exposes the ignorance and unfamiliarity with material reality.The agent is forbidden from reading any response, otherwise he might develop a conscience or worse, self awareness.
You only have the energy for one unrelated buzzwordy comment but dont have the skills to defend yourself. Just lmao
Your side's dead. You dont even know it yet.
ruskie shill says what?
Department of Naval Intelligenceeveryone who disagrees with me is a shill 🌽
comment number 5 by guy who definitely wouldn't waste his time and was definitely not owned
Say something about the article for christs sake. This doesn't help your image the way you think
Why would anyone give a fuck about their "image" on an anonymous Internet forum? Honest question.
I'm supposed to be paid for this???
How do you say "ruskie" and not feel like a loser? Do you know what decade it is?
