So you consult no one (or ignore those you do), launch a war without any clear reason or objective and in the aftermath, you ask "allies" for help?

The level of incompetence and stupidity here is embarrassing.

This is Israel first, plain and simple.

Also it seems like it weakens the position of Ukraine. So the US not only don't want to help and say it clearly, but then start a new war that makes the situation worse, and hope that it makes everybody happy?

Trump has made it clear were his sympathies lie and it's not Zelensky.

Plus, you're being very generous by leaving out:

- the threats of annexing Greenland and Canada;

- the claims that NATO wouldn't come to the aid of the US (the only ones who triggered article 5);

- trashing the effort of ally soldiers when they helped the US, stating soldiers were only in the back, far away from the front lines, not risking their lives;

I mean, the list goes on. Blunder after blunder of deliberately trying to undermine and abuse ally countries that CHOSE to be friends with the USA - they weren't forced. It's an insane perk being thrown out of the window.

Russia investing in the election of this administration through social media was probably the most competent thing their regime did (fortunately the strategic blunder in Ukraine is far greater).

Imagine if Russia actually had good relationships with it's neighbors and Europe.

You missed a bit where he threatened some of those allies with invasion first. Aiding the USA in the Iran 'special operation' is political suicide in Europe.

According to CNN, MAGA community gives him a 89% approval rating for starting the War against Iran. That's more than 60 million Americans supporting War.
