Donald Trump on Friday downplayed the toll on American sailors enduring nearly nine months at sea on the USS Abraham Lincoln as concerns escalated about mental health and supply issues aboard the aircraft carrier supporting U.S. operations against Iran.
In a brief exchange with reporters before flying to New York for an event to highlight falling violent crime rates across the U.S., Trump refuted that family members have raised concerns about the deployment’s length and even said that the deployment — which includes a record-setting uninterrupted time at sea of more than 240 days — is “not nearly long enough.”
Ukraine is fighting for their right to live as Ukrainians. They have to defend themselves to avoid genocide.
I can not respect you if you don’t support the right for Ukraine to exist.
I deliberately phrased it such that you could not do that and you still did it. Do you know what “willing” means? Defensive wars are not willing on the defenders part…
Willing to fight to defend yourself is still willing to fight.
I think you are confusing the words willing and voluntarily.
The sheer amount of dick-twisting you’re performing to avoid just saying “okay sorry you’re right I misunderstood / didn’t read”
Are you really claiming I didn’t read 1 short line of text?
People unwilling to go to war normally means totally unwilling, as in pacifists.

Now please stop being an idiot, and admit you made a poorly formulated comment, that doesn’t mean what you thought it means.
Of course they’re willing - that makes no sense.
Agreed because there are also people in Ukraine who are unwilling to fight despite it being a defensive war for them.
