If the US withholds support, letting #Ukraine be defeated, "(it) means the elimination of the U.S. as a security guarantor for Europe," says Anne Applebaum on PBS. She is right.
Without the US as a security guarantor for Europe, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, all of these current allies will be pushed towards acquiring #NuclearWeapons -- like Israel had already done before the US became its strongest ally in 1967.
Betray Ukraine, kiss goodbye to nuclear #nonproliferation

@joewein Y'all keep refusing to internalize that the GOP is a cult and it wants to bring about the literal end of the world in the everyone dies, smoke-covers-the-land sense.
Failure of non-proliferation is a terrible thing, but not to the GOP.
They're trying to do this enormous act of necromancy to compel God to prove He loves them.
Their objectives make no more sense than that and can make no more sense than that.

There certainly are Evangelicals waiting for the Rapture and Armageddon, but their orange messiah is not one of them (he only believes in himself). He uses them and they use him (as do the Russians), but ultimately it's not about religion.
The US military would do best in a world without nukes because of its conventional superiority while for Russia its nukes are basically the only reason it currently occupies the Soviet seat in the UNSC.
