I believe that degrading the army of one of the US greatest geopolitical world rivals at the cost of roughly 3% of the DoD budget is money well spent. In that there is no US blood is an added advantage. The Ukrainians are fighting this war for their own purpose, to reject tyrannical rule. That's something that's happened for a millennium, including the American revolution.

The US didn't impose this war, 100,000 Russians invading did. As France helped the US during the revolution, the US helps Ukraine.

Yes good thing their escaping tyrannical rule for totally wholesome democratic rule... That bans all opposition parties and bombs their own country for nearly a decade
