Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.
Exact full quote from CNN:
“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

5 to 1 you say? Since Russia is commonly acknowledged having encircled Ukraine with more than 100,000 troops before their invasion, that would mean little old Ukraine put 500,000 troops in the field. There are very few places that can put half a million troops in the field. China of course, if pressed. And of course NATO
Take your BS to someone foolish enough to believe it

Five seconds of googling you are a tiring sassy person
Sigh…putting up with your nonsense
What I see here is Russia with 830,900 active soldiers, which seems about right. Ukraine, on the other hand, shows 200,000, which is a bit of a high number as I’ve seen half that. Putin didn’t send his whole army at the outset thinking it would be a lot easier than it was. He has now. Ukraine didn’t have the equipment for all of its army at the outset but they are closer now. No 5 to 1, sorry.
