Remember when Republicans hated Russians.. what happened? I mean we all know, and they will scream blood murder when confronted with it.

The war is destabilizing energy markets and driving up costs leading to inflation. They're sticking to their politics, and addressing a totally different problem from their perspective.

We had inflation long before the war. Inflation began in the fall of 2020. The war began in the winter of 2022.

Small price to pay to kick thier (Russia's) teeth in. And honestly as unpopular as this opinion is.. America got off light for over 2 decades of war with only a small portion of the population really shouldering the real costs of it. Not saying that this is justification for this, but when we commit to actions of this nature it should be felt... cause we will be doomed to repeat our previous mistakes if we don't ever understand those costs.

And letting Russia win would give them further power to destabilize the global oil economy. Looking only at prices now is just shortsighted.
