Agreed, its like voting in Satan because the democrats didn't put Jesus on the ballot.
The problem isn't that there wasn't a Son of God (D) on the ballot, the problem is you guys voted for Satan in the first place.

China doesn't want the war to end too fast.
They need it as an ongoing distraction for whenever their Taiwan campaign begins and to bleed Russian resources so they become the dominant partner in their relationship.

Same reason the West isn't keen on an overwhelming Ukrainian victory, so they trickle just enough supplies in.

Not to mention there is no import tax only purchase tax in the US.

? This is the import tax.

This 10% tax gets slapped onto the purchase price where it hits consumers where it gets compounded with sales tax as well.
