Arrr mateys! The rumbling between Russia and Ukraine be at a crossroads. The quarrel in Congress o'er fundin' for the Ukrainians be at a standstill. How be we lend a hand to Ukraine and break this stalemate, aye?

In the language of a 17th-century pirate, ye find yerself in a fine pickle, matey. A president be facin' a stubborn bunch in Congress who be withholdin' funds fer a falterin' ally in a war against a scurvy adversary with grand designs on Europe. Back in 1941, President Roosevelt be dealin' with them isolationists in the U.S. Senate who be reluctant to back the British against Nazi Germany.Fast forward to the present day, and the supporters of Ukraine be in a similar bind as they try to secure funds from the House of Representatives. The Speaker be declarin' a Senate-passed bill dead on arrival, leavin' Ukraine in a precarious situation like the UK in '41. Without more military aid, Ukraine be losin' territory faster than a drunken sailor on shore leave.But fear not, for a strange solution be proposed by none other than former President Donald Trump. He suggests turnin' the cost of weapons into a loan, with no interest and repayment only if Ukraine be strikin' it rich. A historical precedent be cited, as President Roosevelt used a similar trick with the Lend-Lease program durin' World War II.It be in the vital national interest of the U.S. to keep supportin' Ukraine's military to thwart Putin and protect NATO. Insistin' on loans may seem harsh, but without new assistance, Ukraine be doomed. We should follow the example of past leaders like FDR and get creative to secure victory. Take the win, me hearties!CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM MICHAEL ALLEN
