@ChrisRJ LMAO WHAT??? We haven't spent one hundred TRILLION dollars on this war? After a brief Google search, I've gathered that we've given Ukraine roughly 20 to 30 BILLION dollars in aid, both material and financial. The US National Debt is over 30 TRILLION. That means that we've spent less than .1% of the National Debt on Ukraine. If you think that .1% is in any way significant, then you are lost.
To put that in perspective, Russia has spent 82 billion on this war, which is a QUARTER of their ENTIRE ANNUAL BUDGET. The US, on the other hand, has only spent the aforementioned 20 - 30 billion. That is less than FOUR PERCENT (4%) of our MILITARY BUDGET. We are literally witnessing the United States (and her allies) absolutely DEMOLISH the Russians through the raw power of our economy, with little to no effort.
(Disclaimer: I am not an expert. These numbers are by no means exact, but they should give you a pretty clear picture of just how totally we are wiping the floor with the enemy.)
I don't even know what to say about that NATO comment though. I mean, did you live during the Cold War at all? Do you understand the significance of our overseas allies? Their economies, their military power, the territory they control. The price we pay for abandoning the alliance is our status as a global super-power.
