JT is an American, with a platform largely inside the US.

An American addressing other Americans about policies of the US and other NATO-aligned countries is a kind of legitimate and constructive political engagement.

It may make you feel better for someone to complain about Putin and Russia, but such complaining already happens constantly, and leads to no real accomplishments.

I little doubt that if JT somehow could influence Putin, then he would try to change his mind about the invasion. However, JT’s interest and opportunity realistically are in discussing, and at least hoping to influence, the role of the US.

Most Americans believe that the US is virtuous and exceptional, and that expansive military force is the best defense against evil people such as Putin, who are personally responsible for most of the conflict in the world.

The narrative is childish and destructive, and criticizing it is completely necessary, even if in doing so someone fails to follow the same script you would have chosen based on your own priorities and concerns.
