              First: The commander-in-chief doesn’t control the military?

              Second: Even if he didn’t, how would that matter for Ukraine? Removing both their support and the sanctions on Russia would still hurt them a lot.

                  Both houses of which are under Republican control. So you’re only going to argue details instead of actually responding to the content?

                    But they don’t control all of Congress. They will still need democrat support, no?
