Why would we help Russia rebuild Ukraine which is a country they will own very soon.
We wouldn't be helping them with my plan. I think the powers in DC believe they can negotiate something where Russia withdraws and they begin rebuilding the 'new' Ukraine and do the money laundering. Just my hunch.

I understand but this is not the type of aid program we are accustomed to seeing from DC.

$50B to help re-industrialize the US
You think we're lacking in industry?

Probably a worthwhile investment don't you think?

Who really knows. From a MAGA standpoint, I would definitely say yes. Economically, way too early to tell.

I think with the recent chip shortage impacts to the supply chain it's pretty evident that it's critical infrastructure
Not something that we want to depend on other nations for if we can do it ourselves

Yes. Below are excerpts from reports, 2018 GAO, and then 2021 from DoD. And people like Peter Schiff have discussed this in the past, mentioning that we don't make the things that are "needed" as much as we did in the past. He was speaking about industry, producing raw materials for construction and so forth. This affects our economy in general and especially our national security.
Currently, the industrial base faces an unprecedented set of challenges:...Combined, these challenges – or macro forces – erode the capabilities of the manufacturing and defense industrial base and threaten the Department of Defense’s (DoD) ability to be ready for the “fight tonight,” and to retool for great power competition.
But unless the
industrial and manufacturing base that develops
and builds those goods modernizes and adjusts
to the world’s new geopolitical and economic
realities, America will face a growing and likely
permanent national security deficit.

The chip shortage wasn't the worst of my worries over the past few years. This is just the same argument MAGA has had for the past 6 years regarding mfg and the security measures involved in bringing mfg back within the borders.
The security argument is valid, but if it were economically expedient, we would already be mfg more chips domestically.

If Russia wins (they will), we won't have to worry about it, and the Ukrainians will hate us. And, it's more than likely that double that amount will be needed.
So my question is will they get Zelenskii? Or will he flee to the US for protection? This will be a major emboldening victory for Russia. Watch out Poland!

Fair enough but this is calculus, not arithmetic.
How about the $250B for the border / cancer / re-industrialization? You good with that part? Any white people affected by cancer? Whites part of industry? Whites affected by the border?
Is the cancer / re-industrialization money exclusively for whites, like the money for minorities would be exclusively for them?
Of course not.
Nice gaslight attempt though.
