14 III 2023: Republicans and Appeasement

DeSantis says that supporting Ukraine is not a vital national interest of the U.S.A. 

Does he, like Trump, have a passion for totalitarians? 

Does he believe Russia cannot be defeated? 

He is maybe re-enacting fascist Joe Kennedy who knew that England could not defeat the Nazis and the U.S. should stay well away. Or maybe he feels Neville Chamberlain’s reluctance to become involved in a “quarrel in a faraway country, between people of whom we know nothing.”

Hard to know for sure. But this I do know: If Biden were to declare that we should have nothing to do with Ukraine, this wannabe dictator DeSantis would be howling that Ukraine’s freedom is essential to America’s well being.
