    Again the apologist's excuse 'they're both dirty; repeatedly fails to address the brutal elephant in the room, and as before does not address the over 1000 to one aggressive brutality of Russian people which dwarfs anything Ukraine has done in the war,

    You and other' Chamberlain' apologists for Putin including a number of Republican representatives are selectively ignoring the brutal elephant in the room. The history of imperialist Russia goes back to Czarist Russia's brutal attempts to dominate Eastern Europe at all costs. and the brutalizing of the Ukrainian people by attempts at ethnic cleansing to make a 'Fatherland' for ethnic Russians.

    The NATO and US support is for the Ukrainian people first, which you and others turn a cold shoulder to in the brutal fate of Ukranians at the hands of Russia. Corruption exists, yes, but there is corruption by oligarchs world wide including the US.

    The Conservative Putin apologists in the USA including complementing Putin's actions in the past fail to provide an alternative to dealing with the systematic brutalizing the Ukrainian people by Russia for imperialist gains, Putin does appeal to traditional Russian claims of domination going back to Czarist Russia.

    Being opposed to corruption is a lame excuse for ignoring the brutal reality of the Russian invasion.

      The brutal reality of the imperialist Russian goals of ethnic cleansing of Ukraine for replacement by ethic Russians is not a conspiracy it s a documented fact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

      The main purpose of NATO's involvement is to saxe th eUkrainian people from the brutal ethnic cleansing of the Russian invasion.

      Your cold apathetic ignoring the brutal fate of the Ukrainian people is worse than appalling.

        I'm not convinced that the Ukrainian people are getting much benefit if any from the billions of dollars being put into Zelinsky's corrupt little hands. It's like handing money to a mob boss and thinking it's going to be used for good. Certainly we should be doing what we can for the innocent victims on both sides of this conflict, but this is not the way to do it.

        Let's put it this way: would you be in favor of Putin being given billions in US aid to help the innocent Russian citizens who have been hurt in this war? Of course you wouldn't because Putin is a megalomaniac who would use the money to enrich himself and his political allies. I oppose giving money to Zelinsky for the same reason.

          First, there has not been any significant suffering by Russians in the conflict. At present they are fleeing Ukraine and the draft in Russia. Any suffering by Russians is a ratio of more than 10,000 to one

                  Of which I addressed and you ignored. I'm not surprised though.

                                Then make your views clear concerning the major topic, CPAC and the Ukraine war, and avoid skirting the topic. Yes, many but of course not all Republicans believe in Qanon conspiracies, It is documented that most Republicans belief in the Trump/Qanon conspiracy that the 2020 election was fraudulent. and Trump supports Qanon, and remains very popular.

                                Polls have more than documented the popularity of Qanon conspiracies among Republicans and Conservative independents who vote Republican..
