BEASTMODE: Mike Pence Says United States Is ‘Arsenal of Democracy’

Mike Pence, the former vice president of USA, said Wednesday that Ukraine standing with them is not about defeating the Russians but rather sending a message. “deafening message to the world that the free world is going to stand for the sovereignty of free nations.”

“I truly do believe that we are the arsenal of democracy, we are the leader of the free world, and continuing to stand with Ukraine to support their fight there is consistent with the conservative principles first articulated by Ronald Reagan,” Pence spoke to a New Hampshire news station. “Back in 1985, he said that the United States would support people fighting for their freedom against communism in their country so that we wouldn’t have to fight them here. It’s called the Reagan Doctrine.”

Pence’s comments follow a wave of statements made by potential Republican presidential candidates about Ukraine. Former vice president and a vocal supporter of Ukraine aid, Pence criticized Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor, for calling Russia’s war in Ukraine “a tragedy.” “territorial dispute.”
