      I still cannot believe we are betraying them, the Europe and featuring ourselves and I feel powerless to stop it.

        Look for the protest actions, join them. Like, casually, just happen to be there.

        You’ll probably find like minded people there and as you connect to more people, that hopelessness will go away!

        FDR was a great man but he was forged in the fires of a time far far worse. I shudder to think how bad things need to get before we get leadership like that back.

      Ok, full props to Zelenskyy. He is certainly doing a better job than any current leaders I can think of and he should have been able to count on the U.S. for full support. I would even support deploying our own troops.

      But better than any leader the U.S. has had for 100 years? That’s quite the suck up. You can respect and support without being a blatant kiss ass. It’s embarrassing for you and for him.
