McConnell gets BLASTED after he announces deal to send $14 BILLION to Ukraine[VIDEO]

Mitch McConnell announced a deal they’ve made with Democrats to send $14 billion to Ukraine to help them with the war.

.@LEADERMCCONNELL ON UKRAINE AID: “WHERE WE’VE ENDED UP IS AT $14 BILLION…IT NEEDS TO BE PASSED AND IT NEEDS TO BE PASSED QUICKLY.” PIC.TWITTER.COM/KFRTLIZBU6

This took a lot of conservatives on Twitter by surprise, who derided McConnell and Republicans for this:

That last one made me chuckle.

Look, I’m not against helping other countries in their time of need. What’s happening to Ukraine is horrendous they would be a perfect target of charity. I am America first, but I’m not America only.

But that said, it’s truly hard to argue with the logic above from so many that when it came to securing our own border and building Trump’s border wall, Republicans largely balked at spending the money needed to do it. Their resistance forced Trump to eventually declare a national emergency in order to get the funds needed to build it.

But here they are dolling out a cool $14 billion to Ukraine? It does feel like a slap in the face.
