I'm sure they'll still accept your personal donations, but no, I don't think spending billions to ostensibly prolong a forever-war thousands of miles away is even necessarily a good or ethical thing.

You know, you all talk about “spending” and “giving”. All that money goes back to the US and funds jobs in the US.

Russia can't sustain their losses and they're not winning.
Their economy is a joke. Putin can't exit because everything will collapse slightly faster than it's already collapsing.
They can't even protect their own territory in Kursk. It's not going to be a forever war.
Russia's misinformation bots are the most effective part of their military.
Having said that, Europe needs to step up because the US has lost it's damn mind.
