This is such a vapid comment. We have funded proxy wars forever.

Ukraine is not our war. US Sovereignty is not threatened. The existence of proxy wars in the past does not justify current or future proxy wars. Decatur, like many others, is perfectly willing to put tax money where his mouth is, but will not place his arse in line to do anything on a personal level. This is much like the wealthy northerners during the US draft during the American Civil War who would purchase their way out of serving in any physical capacity.

"Vapid" is suggesting that funding proxy wars in the past establishes legitimacy to funding proxy wars in the future. For a man who claims to use logic, you tend to make frequent use of non-sequiturs.
