McConnell, Again, Says War In Ukraine Is ‘The Single Most Important Event Going On In The World Right Now.’ Americans Beg To Differ.

According to polls, the American public’s support It is becoming increasingly difficult to provide endless Ukrainian aid. Not even among the top 10 most urgent concernsBut that hasn’t stopped Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-KY, from trying to convince America that the ongoing war is not the. “single most important event going on in the world right now.”

The comment was received as Fentanyl continues killing thousands Every month, millions of Americans. Illegal aliens Flood the border, inflation continues hitting families hard, and Ohio Deals with the Fallout From a train accident in East Palestine. On Thursday, McConnell joined Fox News to discuss the need to send billions to President Volodymyr Zelesky. Dana Perino, News anchor, asked McConnell about Biden’s ability to convince the public that he has a plan for the economy. McConnell used the opportunity to present his own pitch.

“Well, I’m gonna try to help explain to the American people that defeating the Russians in Ukraine is the single most important event going on in the world right now,” McConnell was quick to respond. “It will save us an enormous amount of money down the road if the Ukrainians can succeed. They’re not asking us for any personnel, they’re asking us for financial help.”

The senior Bluegrass State senator praised Europe for their efforts, such as taking in millions of refugees, while arguing that the total cost is relatively small compared to America’s gross domestic product.

McConnell had some concerns about the way Biden handled this matter. He thinks the White House hasn’t moved quickly enough nor sent enough money.

“There should be bipartisan support for this. My biggest criticism of the president is he seems not to have done enough soon enough,” He added. 

The senator attempted to answer Perino’s question by ending his statement by arguing that the war is “important.” He didn’t provide any specific reasons why other than saying that it would be more expensive down the road.

Of course, perhaps a bigger question is why isn’t the United States forcing a peace treaty between Ukraine and Russia. Perino pointed out that the American military is warning that the U.S. puts its defense at risk by decreasing our supplies.

McConnell’s stance is that it is all worth it. Biden states that he would like to support Ukraine. “as long as it takes.” Both men forget that the longer we continue this, the more people will die and closer we get to World War III.

Ukraine tried multiple times to get NATO countries to join its ranks. Ukraine claimed Russia had attacked a Polish village, which ended up killing a civilian. It would have been an attack upon a NATO ally. The truth was that Ukraine was responsible. Last week, Ukraine was also at fault. Claim A Russian missile had entered Romanian airspace. Romania quickly responded and claimed that nothing of the sort had happened.

Only a few American politicians are calling for peace at the moment, including former President Donald Trump, Senator J.D. Vance (R.OH), and Florida Reps. Matt Gaetz Anna Paulina Luna.

The Washington establishment is not taking their suggestions seriously, despite public support for ending the war. Even if you want to continue supporting Ukraine, no evidence indicates that it’s what the American people care about.

In fact GallupThe number one! “non-economic problem” Right now, Americans are with “the government/poor leadership.” Immigration is the second-leading non-economic concern. According to the polling agency, 1% of Americans said that they were concerned about immigration. “situation” Their top concern is Russia.

Regardless of the stance one takes on the war — or the proper ways to end it — it is not encouraging that The Uniparty is focused on Ukrainians rather than Americans. Although it is not surprising, it is disconcerting to say the least.

For nearly a year now, the GOP Senate leader has made it clear that his main concern is Ukraine — not America. He made it clear that he was concerned about Ukraine in May. Submitted reporters, “I think we all agree the most important thing going on in the world right now is the war in Ukraine.” In December, he also added: “Providing assistance for Ukrainians to defeat the Russians — that’s the number one priority for the United States right now, according to most Republicans. That’s how we see the challenges confronting the country at the moment.”

Of course, both of those comments make a lot more sense when you realize he is talking about Republicans in D.C. — not outside The Beltway. With McConnell in charge of the GOP Senate, there is no opposition party to Biden’s foreign policy
