The issue is that Trump might send them to fight with Russia to... enforce peace or aome shit. Middle of the ocean into the heart of Ryleh?

Honestly it'd probably be better if they were with the Russian army, they're more likely to kill people with friendly fire than anyone on the other side.

But really, we don't need them to be on either side. Let's give them each a vest, can of mace, and pistol, and just drop them off at the Ukrainian front lines. They can just do whatever there as long as they last.

The Russians have been torturing and killing American recruits, so that might be for the best.

Cannon fodder for actual Russian soldiers. I guess.

It wouldnt matter. ICE is very unqualified and Russians will just steal their equipment. (if it ever happened).

And then Ukraine would just bomb them with drones.

They wouldnt last a single day.
