Sure, Russia was basically forced to start a full scale invasion of Ukraine because of some skirmish that used American weapons. It's definitely not just Russian imperialism, and the little green men that started the invasion in 2014 also weren't members of the Russian military. Have you lost your mind?

I'm sorry, what's up?

Little green men? Dude, what are you smoking?

You just blamed the invasion of Ukraine on Trump 'opening the floodgates for US weapons' which is bullshit. The invasion was started in 2014 by Little green men which were masked Russian soldiers.

No. I contested the claim that Trump was "anti-war" by noting his staunch support for international arms sales.

Trump also ratcheted tensions on the Ukraine/Russia border by opening the floodgates for US weapons into Ukraine, which were used in the exchange of fire that prompted the Russian invasion

Hell yes you did.
