It's part of the negotiations
I would oppose that deployment, vigorously. But it is being floated now as part of the effort to keep Putin out of Ukraine. Doubt it ever happens.
Every piece of advice from hawks like Victoria Nuland are tripwires to a larger conflagration.
It's like the Fed believing it can always tame inflation. Not so.
This is a dangerous game, Chris. There's a better way to handle it.
EDIT: George W. Bush and H.W. would make the same mistakes, I'm sure.
I don't disagree. And I agree about the hawks. But I do think Biden has handled it OK so far.
He has taken any military reaction off the table, which has pissed off Bolton and Cruz and the other hawks.
Reacting with economic tools is appropriate.
Expanding NATO further or putting troops in Estonia would be horrible ideas. Which is why I think we won't do it.
Hope you're right, but CNN just reported that Biden will indeed deploy our troops.

I just listened to a State Dept briefing. They are putting troops on alert, but no movement (yet).

Oh, I'm sorry. Did your dry cleaning get lost? Cable speed a tad sluggish?
Brave Ukraine soldiers are prepared to die for their nation, ... for their growing democracy.
Yet, you think this is just a convenient opportunity to snipe at President Biden, while rolling over and playing dead amidst efforts by Americans to diminish/destroy our democracy here in America.
The world is a complicated place, little boy. There is no magic wand to make Putin's aggression go bye bye. Working in concert with our European allies, the United States is providing as much pressure and pushback as possible, knowing that invasion is imminent. What is happening on the ground is not about US politics.
There are lines in the sand that we cannot turn a blind eye, merely because it is messy and dangerous. Buck up, child.
Funny to see the Left become warmongers like Conor, advocating that we waste $
by sending 5,000 troops to Europe on top of what we already have there, risking a major engagement with Russia, all because Biden doesn't know how to stand up to Putin like Trump did.
The Left abandoned its anti-war principles a long time ago. Conor's post is more proof.
Hilarious.

Fact check: the Crimea was not Obama's to lose.

Right now, we need to unite as Americans and help Biden....
...you already know where I stand wrt him. But this is very serious.
Ex-CIA spooks advocating for war in WaPo today. Momentum is building.
Biden might be persuaded to create such a distraction. Hopefully someone comes to their senses.
