want to see massive land conquest. That will happen... but much like other wars (WW2 in France after D-Day) it will happen all at once, like a Dam breaking. It will happen when the fresh troops that Russia has are thrown into the meat grinder without any training and with supply lines that are longer or cut off. Unmotivated, untrained, and mostly thinking about "what happened to the previous 400,000 troops and tanks and armor fighting vehicles".

All this will happen in time, so long as the west supplies Ukraine with ammunition and equipment ( and training ).

Putin is counting on his asset Trump and the GOP to end those things.

I wonder if we could start a massive "gofundme" campaign that would allow the Ukraine to buy NATO made ammunition and materials. $1000 USD per month from 10,000,000 Americans. $1B per month for 12 months.

Can that work? Are their 10M patriots willing to give to such an effort. Can Ukraine even buy what it needs if it had the money?

I'll sign up for 1 unit. Not that I really have that much excess money... but f' it... we need to defeat Putin ( and Trump and the GOP )
