FOX Business host Larry Kudlow gave his take on President Biden's response to the Russian invasion on 'Kudlow' Wednesday.
Communicating toughness and victory is something Joe Biden has never done, but it's never too late to start. I believe Bing West is right, in that the economic sanctions should never be lifted untilI also think Biden should make it clear that the United States and its NATO allies want the Ukrainians to win this war. Biden has never said that.
There is a growing feeling that the Biden administration's strategy is to pursue some kind of standoff or stalemate in the Ukraine, that the strategy is to contain Russia, not to defeat Russia. If Biden is truly the leader of the forces of democracy and freedom, he should make very clear to Putin that, "We win, you lose," and Biden and all of NATO should make a renewed push to accommodate President Zelenskyy's requests for as many weapons as he needs. Carte blanche on weaponry.
Nobody wants troops on the ground, but remember, this business about offensive vs. defensive weapons actions is a lot of baloney. It was Putin who invaded Ukraine. It is Zelenskyy and the brave Ukrainians who are defending their country. Therefore, all forms of assistance to Ukraine are, by the very nature of this conflict, defensive. This idea that we will somehow make Putin angry is just utter wimpy, wussy nonsense.
The guy's not angry, he's mad. He's a criminal. It is he who has escalated. It is the West who is defending. Arbitrary distinctions among weapons do not hold up in the face of rigorous logic or analysis.
