Biden's handling of the Ukraine War

Are we now closer to ‘World War III’

Last year, President Joe Biden asserted that delivering offensive military equipment, including tanks to Ukraine as part of that nation’s ongoing battle against invading Russian troops, would lead directly to another world war.

“The idea that we’re going to send in offensive equipment and have planes and tanks and trains going in with American pilots and American crews — just understand, don’t kid yourself, no matter what y’all say, that’s called World War III,” he said in March.

So, what changed his mind?

The US will send Ukraine 31 M1 Abrams tanks, President Biden announced Wednesday in a neck-snapping reversal from the Pentagon’s stated opposition late last week — though Kyiv won’t be able to make full use of the vehicles for months. The about-face caught the attention of countless critics, including potential 2024 rival Donald Trump.

Ukraine secured a pledge from the United States and Germany to send fighter jets. Now Biden with his mixed messaging, has changed his mind...will not send the F-16's to Ukraine.

So, what the hell is going on?

I don't think Trump would agree with you there, Lynn.

@7:34...Trump understands that Russia is an enemy. He said Putin had been "emboldened" to invade Ukraine after witnessing the "incompetent" U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan last year – as he said that the U.S. would not be in this position if he was still in the White House.
