We completely agree about JD Vance.

Still: although you are a wise and brave woman in other contexts, such as in announcing your conversion to Christianity, I do not understand why you want the U.S. to keep stoking the war in Ukraine. This war benefits U.S. arms manufacturers and those funds who now own much of the land area and mineral wealth in Ukraine. It does not benefit the Ukrainians, and Vladimir Putin is no threat to NATO or Europe.

I cannot imagine that you want an all-out war between the U.S. and Russia, one that the U.S. would have a hard time winning with its woke, feminized military, but before the inevitable American defeat, Europe would be wiped out. Since I live there, I have some interest in not being incinerated.

What is it about Russia and Putin that makes otherwise sensible people so determined to spill other people's blood?

I just do not get it.

Thank you for the excellent analysis! I am here in Grand Rapids, waiting for Trump/Vance to appear on TV at 5 pm EDT in a rally. We love them here and are touched that we are the first after the Convention. Pres. Trump visited us last in 2015 and what an exciting time that was! I read Hillbilly Elegy quite a while ago. I am now listening to it on Audible and it has reinforced my view that J.D. Vance possesses a first rate intellect, a strong Christian faith and solid judgment.
