Should Trump try to end the Ukraine war?

If he does, he will want Ukraine to give up land.

The alternative is, we just keep giving Ukraine 100's of billions in arms every year
until Russia destroys both of their countries.

Would that be better than peace, and giving up land?

No. I think they can push Russia out. If you surrender the land to Russia, they will learn that all they have to do is invade another country and NATO will give up land to save money. It will embolden Putin. It is in NATO, and Americans interest to reduce the sphere of Russian influence in Europe.

@JimboSaturn Who is "They"? Can "They" do it on their own? I think by They, you really mean
the U.S. Do you want to put boots on the ground? Or should we just keep sending them 100s
of billions every year in aid and arms?

@DogMan No, I think the "they" intended in that Jimbo post is clearly the people of Ukraine. I don't believe JS is referring to the USA.

Speaking of the people of Ukraine, I see no concern being expressed for the ones who would come under the Putin regime. No thought for them, by the folks who advocate giving up 'their' land?

@ffony From what I have read, most people in the Donbas region WANT to be part of
Russia. But I really don't know those fact, as I do not go there, or talk to anyone there.

I have a friend at my gym that is from Belarus, and has family in the Ukraine, I will ask
his opinion next time I see him. Probably better than listening to the talking heads.
