Should the US support Ukraine? Hear the answer from a veteran, a conservative, and Trump supporter

from History in the Making: The War in Ukraine

It's an unfortunate reality but its true: the primary obstacle in US politics today to supporting Ukraine comes from the Republican Party. It's been strange to see the party of Reagan hesitant to stand up to Russia and support a democratic ally in its quest for freedom. Why is that?And ultimately should the US support Ukraine?To answer these questions, I had on the show Larry Provost, a conservative columnist, Republican, US veteran, Trump supporter AND major supporter of Ukraine. Hear not only all the reasons why the US should support Ukraine, but also why he believes Trump, his administration, and much of the right in the US have been hesitant to support Ukraine to date. Listen in also to hear why Provost is optimistic that the Trump administration will be more supportive going forward.Larry Provost is a conservative columnist and commentator based in Washington, D.C. A 26 year military Veteran who served in Afghanistan and Iraq, he is a graduate of the U.S. Naval War College, George Washington University, Liberty University and Regent University. His work has appeared in Townhall, Newsmax, The Daily Caller, The American Spectator and other Conservative publications.You can find the article mentioned in the podcast that Provost wrote here: https://www.newsbreak.com/newsmax-325020896/4084331020836-why-u-s-helping-ukraine-defeat-russia-makes-fiscal-sense  To connect and message with Mark on LinkedIn:www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mcnamee-58950910 To learn more, visit:https://ubn.network/ Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/Mark-McNamee/ If you found this episode valuable, follow the podcast and share it with someone who wants to better understand the war in Ukraine.
