Has it? Ukraine is stuck with a loan because Biden did not give them the weapons but loaned them. If this was not the plan all along, why would they be loans?

Have they? As far as i am aware, the Lend-Lease act of 2022 hasnt been used once. The weapons weren't loaned, but the 4.4 Billion dollars for buying weapons were. Thats a fraction of the 176 billion the US spent in this war.

That 500B debt is number pulled of Trumps Ass.
