US Army vet fighting in Ukraine responds to waning support within GOP
Thank you for your service defending America and Ukraine. You are a true hero may God bless you in all aspects of your life. You deserve more recognition. You are a very honorable human being. So young but you have seen and been through more than all of us ever will in our whole lives. I ask God to keep his hands on you and to guide you and Ukraine to VICTORY.
He’s no longer defending America.
Yes he’s helping the American investors in war-related companies.
Bravo young man. Slava Ukraine. We r all behind you and Ukraine.
@GondorianSlayer *doesnt
@GondorianSlayer you had one job but still failed lol
Great guy! Stay strong Ukraine! US citizens are always for freedom and democracy and will continue you guys as long as it takes.
Wow ok
@Filip Chilyan he got dealt with because he lived in an ivory tower while he watched “his people” suffer under the weight of the international sanctions he caused.
@Brian Mead honestly, Russia is a democracy like Saddam’s Iraq was a democracy. 🤣
I really appreciate when CNN puts real people on air – it’s OK to not know everything about everyone, and stumble over a few words – in order to hear truth!
tjon google, why no content on your channel? are you afraid of something?
@thalente khuluse How do you know for sure if anything is propoganda?
“what’s this guy’s name?” 💀 Absolutely perfect response
@Northernsailor trust me I know about the lack of Geography, send a year up state NY in senior-highschool.
@OH KO – I replied initially to someone who said she was fighting FOR HIS PEOPLE. HIS PEOPLE are American citizens, not Ukrainians. I also said if he’s going to volunteer, that’s good and fine, I don’t care really. But there is reason OUR US PRESIDENT won’t send our US troops to fight the Russians. He is smart enough to know WW3 isn’t a good idea for OUR national security. This US citizen wants to go fight for a foreign nation who was invaded, good for him, I reiterate, he’s not doing it on OUR behalf
@GondorianSlayer I’m not afraid of fictional wars against countries that collapsed 30 years ago.
Yes so clever—like how he asked “what’s the question again” 5 seconds later. The bumbling fool “act” is so charming
im a republican and I support Ukraine, please know that not all Republicans doesn’t support Ukraine
It’s eerie to think that all the people died in this series, soldiers or civilians, were still alive a year ago. Historic battles have a feeling of distance, but this series… each line pushing means numerous people that are living, dreaming contemporarily with us have left us..
Facts, this is even more reason to enjoy what we have and not take it for granted. Specially because I’m pretty sure that we all will feel a bit of the pain their feeling now.
A great disturbance in the force of good. My heart is forever heavy with the loss
Wow, I wish I was as poised and brave as this guy. Slava Ukraine!
Where did they fine that “vet” a Ukrainian school playground? Give me a break! That kid is clearly not American and the only combat he’s had was on a ps3 but probably on a ps2 cuz we all know how poor and worthless those people are!
@Tom Taubken Why do our tax dollars have to support Ukraine when we can’t even help our own country?
He’s an actor lol and if you feel that strongly I heard they need help on the frontline.
Let’s go Nazis vs Nazis… ok ok. And everyday people vs everyday people. (My brain hurts already)
Stay safe young man! You are the real hero. I appreciate your knowledge and intelligence. Slava Ukraine!
@Spank Mode Bit of a Nazi-like comment, wouldn’t you say?
@Eric Chase the irony never escapes these clowns? I’m under the opinion that they are mostly AI bots…
The moment he refused to flee Kyiv is when he earned every penny for his country in military aid..
Imagine the second best (supposedly – at least most “expert sources” claimed) military in the world coming to assassinate you.. he probably could have temporarily fled to Poland and directed the war effort and still gotten support from home and abroad. But the second he made that video about staying in Ukraine is the moment I decided we should help this man..
Wow. Love this guy. May God keep you safe and the rest of Ukraine too.
Well said and good luck to you young man, I really hope you make it through all the brutality in Ukraine.
@Alex Perez ofcourse best fucking comedy channel there is…well next to that Ricky gervais guy😂
Finally someone who actually answer the questions he was asked
They asked him silly ish. What is war like??? Hell. Boom no need to get shot at for this insight.
@green beanz I actually served with him in Afghanistan. 2013 Kandahar RC south FOB WALTON
Great candid honest interview. I wish him well.
An interview Ron Desantis did not see coming. Words of honesty that is kryptonite to immoral politicians. 🇮🇹
Fake
Miro Popovich is a HERO. What a guy witth a compassion heart. Sending love from the Philippines.
He looks EXHAUSTED!
@I’m_tired_of_life you sound exhausted
I love how this solider doesn’t know who DeSantis is.
Truth is,outside his Florida closet,Desantis is pretty much a non-entity,
@LENNY FERRARA lol. You are so naive. Desantis for president.
what a nice lad God protect him
@james waititu Depends on which god your brain is imagining? The Christian God is not pro-war….as far as Christ’s teaching goes…..
Yes, nice lad, a vet that killed women and children in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Funniest part of the interview: when asked about Ron DeSantis … his response “What’s this guy’s name?” I just about fell out of my chair. 🤣
@ken cook us that funny Canada did more in WW2
He didnt know the pink floyd idiot either lol
🤣😂😂
This hero looks so young and yet has been sacrificing, fighting in the deadly war for over year and its not done yet. 🙏🏻

So true. At the end of the day, life is what you make it.
What a mature response! I am rooting for this young man.
