If by “silently allowed “you mean “Trump was too busy being so corrupt with his own bullshit that the United States didn’t do its duty as the global protector of democracy“ then, yeah. That. The entire planet collectively will agree with you.

And now we have lost our position as world police, which we did an awful lot of work to earn. Americans don’t have universal healthcare because of the trillions of dollars and decades we spent earning that position. But whatever. Enjoy Crimea while you have it. apparently, Ukrainians are much more incredible, bad asses than anyone ever imagined, and, personally, I am very much enjoying watching them kicking your asses on a regular basis.

Hopefully that ends soon, and we can all get back to economic warfare instead.

Nah, the politicians that let Putin get away with a slap on the wrist for annexing Crimea were pre-Trump. Mainly Angela Merkel, actually. Fuck her.

Trump has of course also enabled Putin since the full scale invasion.

Crimea annexation was before Trump went into politics

I'm just glad that I'm not a piece of shit like you are.
