Imagine if a guy like Trump, who's obviously willing to go to war with countries that everyone says you shouldn't go to war with,
Imagine if he had gone all in with Ukraine.
They probably would have driven the Russians out of Crimea by now and then some, right?
But the Ukrainians are doing okay, actually better than okay for the first time in several years for a number of reasons.
Number one, they have realized that they need to domestically source the munitions required to fight this kind of war, which is ever evolving, ever modernizing, right?
I mean, this is a drone war.
It's not necessarily being fought with heavy armor and tanks.
I mean, you need infantry to hold the line, of course.
You need human beings, and they're always going to have a manpower shortage.
But they have really got the advantage in terms of military technological innovation.
And that's done two things at once.
Number one, it's now really interdicting Russian supply lines, particularly in the south.
They're cutting off supply.
you know, the lines of communication to Crimea.
And their drone operators are talking openly about this as a strategy now.
Number two, it's allowing Ukraine to claw back some territory.
They continue to lose territory in one place, but they claw back territory elsewhere.
But number three, and perhaps most importantly, it's made a utilitarian argument for Ukraine.
It's not just about moral support, solidarity, the humanitarian suffering.
Now Ukraine has something to offer the West, including the United States.
