Hegseth cut off aid to Ukraine twice already, supposedly acting without Trump's knowledge. It was reversed basically the next day. There's some faggot whose name I can't remember that Hegseth answers to, and he's a a foaming at the mouth Chyna hawk, and would leave every other theater devoid of American presence if he could just go on a chink killing spree

Trump's entire narrative is that Ukraine is a waste of money and scamming America, that's the line he ran on and sticks to it. It's literally that simple, he doesn't want the US to bare any financial burden whatsoever, which is why he doesn't want to do secondary sanctions either, at least not against China, but is happy to fleece Europe for cash and sell weapons.
Good luck explaining to him the benefits of sending shit scheduled for decommissioning, of joint R&D with Ukraine, observing field performance of weapons, and other more abstract ways that the US MiC gains on this, not even mentioning the diplomacy, soft power, and global stability. Too low IQ and senile for all that
