I am curious why is the US tired of sending Ukrainians to the meat grinders NOW, The US could not have cared less until now

Basically, it look like the Americans have been getting their information from the Ukrainians and the Europeans, and they've been told it's all going great. Then Pokrovsk collapses, and the whole front is now a visible disaster. Now it's no longer possible to deny that Russia is winning. Meanwhile, the one thing Trump is most concerned with is not being seen as a loser. Hence, he can't be the one who loses this war.

So the deal is very simple. The Americans rush to cobble together their 28-point plan. The Russians looked at it and said that it is a good basis for further discussions. But the Europeans? They're already screaming no, no, we can't accept it!

And now Trump can say you don't like my beautiful, perfect deal? It's all yours. You handle it. And when it all goes south he'll say, "I had the deal. It was the best deal ever. Those Europeans, they didn't want it. They fought, and look what happened. A total shame. They should have taken the deal."

Thank you so much, so a little bit of ego and a little bit of preserving the paper tiger just a little longer
