in 2014 instead of just getting cute with soldiers without insignia they claimed were local resistance fighters. Yeah, right.

Instead, they gave Ukraine 8 years to train their army and resistance fighters

Ukraine didn't have much of a military when they kicked Yanukovych out in 2014 and that was by design, of course. They've certainly got one now and they're cleaning Russia's clock.

Over how powerful and "masculine" the Russian military was compared to our "woke" 🙄 co-ed forces? They had a massive mancrush on them.

They've been real quiet lately, haven't they?
