[groove]

Sad how the American people are always last

[adamg]

He's seriously bragging about spending money the American people don't have

[tayhoops]

I live in the u.s this place is a joke make it harder for us citizens but pay money to a war we have no business fighting

[TheNecessaryEvil]

Before Putin: inflation is good for us.
After Putin: it’s Putin’s fault.
In the span of a few weeks.

[TheMistashmoe]

I wish America would help its own as much as it does other countries.

[slipwagon]

Remember this the next time a U.S. President says we can't afford to provide everybody healthcare.

Imagine 800 million in funding for the homeless communities across the 50 states. He could clean up skid row. He could clean up Kensington. Etc etc etc. Imagine what the outreach programs could accomplish additionally. Imagine the support you could give to low income families.

[Salty-Gratons]

I wish I could get millions in funding every year

[michaeltoscano]

I wish we would put such effort into helping homelessness and hunger in America aswell.

[charlie]

how about helping the Americans that are suffering

[TTOS]

How can the US make a no fly zone in a different country and even continent? I think Zelensky is asking the wrong people. Ask the Europeans on the same continent as you!

[Karmindd]

That’s right! Give all of the American peoples money to the Ukraine. We don’t mind!

[skyguyst]

just ask Afghanistan for all of the weapons back that we left there during Joe's last blunder. I'm sure Ukraine would love all of that stuff.

[Shelby_Moe.]

Can someone please tell me where all this money is coming from that the United States is sending?

[Cws]

GREAT POINT, we left better equipment in Afghanistan

[Peerni]

If you were to ask even 1/8 if this for American healthcare or education... the government would shut down

[nateh]

Outrageous. We can quickly send Ukraine all of this money and support but when it comes to providing resources to vulnerable Americans (homeless vets, kids in foster care), suddenly Washington DC is concerned about "spending." PATHETIC.

[theapocalypse]

This man is seriously demented. Reading flash cards, pep rallying, plus the horrible decisions! As for answering reporter’s questions, that wasn’t going to happen. 🤨 Worst president EVER!
