It's not necessary to have the data, but I'll proceed regardless. Let's assume that pretty much anyone would respond that, yes, there is a dollar amount past which we should not go in regard to funding Ukraine. I would hope that's a safe assumption. Establishing that, it can be said that having a dollar value in mind does not make one a Putin asset or having fallen prey to propaganda. Hence, a GOP member of Congress can have issues with the funding amount that have absolutely nothing to do with being a Putin crony or anything other than having an issue with the amount.
This whole thread is dedicated to the absurd premise that the entire GOP is in bed with the Russians, with zero proof of this beyond not wanting to write endless checks to Ukraine. I believe we should continue to aid Ukraine, it would be horrifically tragic for that nation to fall under Russia's control again. They suffered terribly under the yoke of the USSR. But I will not condemn a person who thinks we've given them enough as a Putin stooge or a propaganda victim simply for having that opinion.
Honestly, for all the talk of MAGA group mentality I see very similar behavior in this thread.
