A week after he broke with the majority of House Republicans and voted to send $60.8 billion in aid to Ukraine, Representative Max Miller took the stage at a performing arts center in his Ohio district bracing for backlash.
Instead, Mr. Miller, a first-term congressman who spent four years in the White House as a top aide to former President Donald J. Trump, was greeted at a town hall-style meeting on Saturday in the city of Solon with a sustained round of applause. Several attendees stood to publicly thank him for his vote, and a line of locals queued up afterward to shake his hand.
“Anything we can do to support the Ukrainian victory over the Russian invasion would be a positive thing for the world,” said Randy Manley, a retiree from Strongsville, Ohio, who said he planned to vote for Mr. Trump in November.

Maybe if right wingers didn’t go full nazi all over the world we wouldn’t be so close to a WW3
I Liked the comment but look at this guy’s post history. Ya’ll took the bait. Russian bot/troll/Pro Trump account that only spouts things such as “Liberal pussy foot neo-leftist commie bastard clown fart”. 100’s of short one line insane posts in the last hour alone.
A man who runs away from a fight, when people he claims are his friends need help, is a coward, nothing more. If WW3 is the cost, then so be it. Though Putin would have to be pretty damn dumb to fight half the world with just Russia, since neither China nor India have alliance treaties with him.
So the aid bill passed. Guess that means we’re in WW3 now, then?
Or maybe that was just yet more empty rhetoric?

You post comments really quickly. You made your Lemmy account yesterday, and you’re nothing but a fascist mouthpiece. All of your comments just reek of that… desperation.
Oh look, a troll.
Easy block, fash.
What avenues of escalation are left to Putin? 80% of his army is tied up in Ukraine, the rest is needed for border patrol. All russian men that would join the army voluntarily have already joined, so a big mobilization would see the support for the war plummet. And after that, all that is left is the big N word. And there are plenty of reasons why Putin doesn’t want to use those.
On the other hand, letting Ukraine lose will lead to much more instability in the future.
Edit: above comment accused ‘lefties’ of wanting WW3.
