Strawman. Ukraine is not in NATO and is thus forced to keep neighboring Russia happy. That's just realpolitik. US can not and will not retaliate as that would be WW3. On the flip side, Russia will not attack NATO countries as that would also be WW3.
The only real losers here are primarily Ukraine which is being destroyed and Europe which has to keep doing what US wants since it's dependent on the latter for defense.

Your thinking in this area lacks depth. Think about what happens next after Russia is handed Ukraine. And after that.

On the flip side, Russia will not attack NATO countries as that would also be WW3. And yet USA has had no issue fighting against the soviets during Vietnam and Korean war. You can try and be armchair president all day long but the truth doesn't favor your argument.
