U.S. Vice President JD Vance said on April 14 that he is proud of Washington cutting off funding to Ukraine amid Russian aggression, listing it among the Trump administration’s top achievements.

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Athens, Georgia, Vance recalled being confronted by a Ukrainian-American over his calls to halt funding for Ukraine.

“And this person got really agitated at me because I was saying we should stop funding the Ukraine war,” Vance said.

    Funny how nobody has actually challenged anything I said. They just default to insults, lectures and holding me personally responsible for Democrats shitting the bed.

    It looks like you’re more of the same in that regard, but if you’re going to ignore me you might as well contradict yourself by announcing it loudly and proudly I guess lol

      Probably because we thought through how ludicrous your argument was 20 years ago. Before you were born.

      And all this was discussed ad nauseum from 2023-2024. We don’t need to prove any of the basic 4th grade logic to you.

      It’s not really a hard concept that I said I’d ignore your future ramblings. It’s for the benefit of other people thinking the same.

              It’s pretty cringy to have these 16 year old type beliefs as someone much older than that.

                Well, unlike you I don’t believe it’s the pinnacle of adulthood either to outsource your conscience to parties that take no responsibility for their policies.

                  I consider it thinking like a young child to be unable to accept basic realities

                    I think you talking down to fellow adults like children says a lot about how you view not only adults, but children too.

                    I sincerely hope you don’t do that in real life.
