To drain American resources, has to be the only reason this war still going on. Once again Trump is right all American politicians are stupid and Putin is much smarter than all of them.

They are bleeding us out.

It's agonizing. Can they speed it up?

The welfare state is draining out resources at a much faster pace than these Ukraine funding bills.

They've had to go hat-in-hand to China, Iran, and the Norks to source equipment.

No. If you've ever studied Russian military history, you'd know that they absolutely suck at warfare. Always have. Every technological peer that they've ever faced in battle has put wildly disproportionate casualties on them. Russia usually wins, but it's only due to sheer numbers. Due to their demography, they no longer have meat waves to throw at their enemies like they used to.

Let me get this straight:

A country with a GDP of $4 trillion is deliberately prolonging an attritional conflict against an economic block with a GDP of $60 trillion in the hopes that he will break them economically?

So he's spending 8% of his GDP annually to prosecute a war that he could easily win if he wanted to....and the combined support from the western block he's up against equals about .3% of their GDP. But it's in his best interest to keep playing this 4D poker game?

Yeah, Russia has also had a million people leave the country and about half of those were young men avoiding the draft. They're getting short of laborers. I don't think Putin wanted or expected a 3 year long war. It's not good economics.

You state "no longer having meat" but forget that UKR has even worse demographics article. Ukraine is dealing with an even worse situation amongst its fight population than Russia.

This is absurd. Do you have any idea how expensive it is for Russia to fight this war?

Considering he is on the border of Ukraine a lot less that it is costing us.

Ironically I bet our government thinks that's what we're going to Russia

How expensive is it? Please use reputable citation that shows the Russian balance sheet and financial statement.
