I’ll vote for Burton if someone can clearly show me his stance on not sending money to Ukraine. That is the primary (swidt?) reason I decided to show up to vote in the primary against Wicker because of his vote on that spending bill.


I share this sentiment with you. Until I saw it listed that Wicker voted for the Ukraine bill, I doubt I would have shown up to vote at all, especially with Trump already securing the nomination.

I agree that Burton tends to run a majority of his campaign on “buzzwords” and follows the path of Trump on a lot of things. This annoys me at times as well.

Burton came to speak in northeast MS a couple of weeks ago, and a good portion of his speech was about the Ukraine bill. In so many words he said he would only support humanitarian aid for Ukraine. He brought up it being a money laundering scheme for politicians on both sides, etc. etc. He was vehemently against ever putting boots on the ground in Ukraine or any other foreign dispute, and cited his military experience and seeing “men and women in flag draped coffins sent back home” as his reasoning for that.

I know I’m just some random guy on the internet so I don’t expect you to take my word for it, but I had the same primary concern as you. I like Eubanks a lot and if he makes a runoff against Wicker, I’ll vote for him with a smile on my face.
