    There's an argument to be made that Ukraine should be a low American priority & that the USA should have a much more modest policy in eastern Europe. But there's no argument as far as I can see for siding with Russia over Ukrainehttps://twitter.com/Acyn/status/1201674758158352385 …

        Kind of a similar reason that liberals love Ukraine so much (the Western-aligned part that is): they're not like those further Eastern backwards Slavs. They're just flip sides of the same basic racism

        good point. letting corruption and oligarchy fester, extending its tendrils into Western capital markets and law firms will have no corrosive effect on Wester institutions.

        The argument is (at least from the GOP point of view) "Russia is more fascistic than Ukraine."

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        My hypothesis is that the President (and therefore his sycophants) is deeply emotionally gratified to see the naked exercise of lawless power. This is why he idolizes Putin, loves foreign dictators, and coos over domestic war criminals.

        Well, that presupposes there are "sides" there to begin with. And if you think there are then you kind of have already taken a side in the issue, ie the NATO/US one that places high priority on "defending" Ukraine fr Russian "aggression" and your point is kind of self-negating

        Tucker’s job is to make Trump’s undying loyalty to Russia seem perfectly reasonable by Election Day.
