In a common-sense move that puts America first, the Trump administration has put the brakes on certain shipments of U.S. weapons to Ukraine. It’s about time. Under President Joe Biden, more than $100 billion in American munitions was handed over to Ukraine, leaving the U.S. strapped for critical defense resources. It’s the kind of reckless spending and globalist meddling we’ve come to expect from the Left.
By prioritizing foreign interests over our national security, Biden’s policies endangered America’s readiness. The Department of Defense is now rightly taking steps to preserve our resources, focusing on keeping our nation strong, while still providing necessary options to aid Ukraine. The fact that it took a bold course correction from the Trump administration to address this mess should tell you everything you need to know about liberal incompetence.
Conservatives are praising this decision because it finally represents putting the needs of U.S. citizens over foreign agendas. Liberals, in their characteristic fashion, would rather neglect American defenses just to prop up their endless crusade of policing the world.
While some Democrats in Congress express outrage, worried about Ukraine’s defense systems, let’s be clear: the duty of our government is to protect Americans first. It’s long past time that someone stood up to the wasteful funneling of U.S. resources to endless foreign conflicts. Trump’s move to halt weapons shipments is a step in the right direction, restoring balance and refocusing on America’s interests.
When will Democrats learn that the U.S. cannot be the world’s ATM? Instead of pretending to be the saviors of the world, it’s time for them to wake up and consider who they are really elected to serve.
