You should boycott the US invention of the Internet.

BBC with a brutal takedown of Ukrainian hopes

The only to get Russia to exit Ukraine is by force, and no Western nation is willing to enter the fight with Ukraine. -
BTW..in today's dollars. The US spent $661,336,000,000 just on the lend-lease program. We kept you in the war.

The United States significantly impacted the Battle of the Atlantic by providing crucial naval forces and air power, ultimately turning the tide against German U-boats and ensuring the vital supply lines to Britain and the Soviet Union remained open throughout World War II, effectively allowing the Allies to maintain their war effort in Europe; their entry into the war brought a massive influx of ships, manpower, and advanced technology to the fight against German submarine attacks. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Key points about the US impact on the Battle of the Atlantic: [1, 4, 6] Industrial Powerhouse: The US's vast industrial capacity allowed for the production of large numbers of warships, aircraft, and escort vessels, which were crucial in bolstering Allied naval forces in the Atlantic. [1, 4, 6] Convoy System: American naval forces played a key role in protecting Allied convoys crossing the Atlantic, using advanced technology like radar and sonar to detect and destroy U-boats. [1, 3, 7] Airpower: The deployment of long-range aircraft from the US significantly expanded the area that could be patrolled, further limiting U-boat operations. [1, 5, 7] Turning Point in 1943: With the US fully engaged in the battle, the tide turned decisively against the Germans in mid-1943, leading to a significant decline in Allied shipping losses. [1, 2, 5] Early Involvement: Even before officially entering the war, the US provided support by establishing bases in the Atlantic and deploying naval patrols to monitor German submarine activity. [4, 8, 9] Generative AI is experimental.

I'm not seeing any huge changes yet. You need to be more specific.

EOs are bad when Trump does it? Correct?

Sounds like you are rooting for the CCP.

Without the USA's industrial might the battle of the Atlantic would been lost. The USA also blocked Japan from cutting off supply lines to Australia and New Zealand during the battles of Guadalcanal.
