As Twitchy reported, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson asked every potential Republican candidate about their stand on Ukraine. Donald Trump said that if he were president, Russia wouldn’t have invaded Ukraine, and he’s probably right. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis took an “America first” stance, saying “we cannot prioritize intervention in an escalating foreign war over the defense of our own homeland, especially as tens of thousands of Americans are dying every year from narcotics smuggled across our open border and our weapons arsenals critical for our own security are rapidly being depleted.”
Neither man wants to turn this proxy war into a real war between the top two nuclear powers, which we suppose means they’re siding with Russia.
We shouldn’t be shocked when Trump and DeSantis side with Russia. When at your core you want a White Christian Nationalist State, that’s who you side with and fuck Democracy.

What did Reiner think of the Obama administration, which refused to send defensive weapons to Ukraine when Russia invaded and Bloomberg even reported that the White House advised Kiev to stand down when Putin took Crimea. The Obama administration’s big push for peace was to hold up signs with the hashtag, #UnitedForUkraine.
Personally, what would shock me the MOST Rob, would be to see a message from you that wasn't nonsensical leftist horse manure.

I love it when hollywood takes time away from raping and selling children to give the rest of us a lesson in morals and values.

You mean when they held similar positions re Ukraine’s interests that Obama held during Obama/Biden?

Obama sent them blankets. Trump sent them weapons.

We don't have to "side with Russia." We don't have to "side with Ukraine" either. True conservative capitalists and patriotic Americans are and have always been ANTI-COMMUNIST and ANTI-FASCISM!

Rob Reiner looks like exactly what whiny self absorbed white old men look like…and he proves it with every tweet.
— Chris Deighton (@Deighton95C) March 15, 2023
Reiner must be happy with President Joe Biden, then, who has a blank checkbook and says we’ll stick with Ukraine as long as it takes.
