Do we care enough, do we as Americans care enough about who's in control of 25% or so, 15, 20% of Ukraine that we're willing to lose American soldiers and spend billions, perhaps even trillions of dollars, never mind the possibility of a nuclear exchange, which is the euphemism, of course, we use for nuking each other's militaries in the theater, which would be horrifying.

Are we willing to do those things? No, we're not. And so at some level, this is all just, I think, a recognition that there's going to be an ability that Russia has in its sphere of influence here or to expand its sphere of influence here because it's not a NATO country and because we don't want to do their fighting for them. And so there are limitations on what we're willing to do.

There are also limitations on the time frame in which we're willing to continue doing what we are already doing in terms of the money and materiel and training and everything else that we have been giving them. This is a messy situation. It's terrible how much life has been lost here. You brought up, Clay, and this is true, you go back to the, you know,

Yanukovych and the efforts to figure out who's going to be in charge of Ukraine stretching back now over a decade, the West backing one side, Russia backing another. You know, we've been playing with this as some kind of a proxy territory for much longer than there have even been bullets flying over there.

So to get this thing to be no longer a festering sore, but to be in a position where there's an agreement going forward, as far as the Russians are concerned, look at the dismemberment that the Soviet Union suffered into all these different countries and all these breakaway republics. For them, the notion that the map is now and forever going to remain the map is laughable, clearly.

And they very much feel that way, and that's why they've been willing to go to this extent. And you'll notice that no one even talks anymore about how Putin's going to be overthrown or all this. People said moronic stuff. And I mean U.S. senators. I don't have to name them. I could name them. In the very beginning of this conflict, delusional.
