No one hates the repeated phrasing,...
It is a bit annoying, but I know where he got it. One of the wonks I follow showed the clip from RW media (may have been FOX...it's probably at least a year old now, so I don't remember exactly). Some talking head was blathering on about "guns, dudes, and money". He clearly had no clue. A very simplistic view of warfare**.
Poland will not stop supporting Ukraine, and neither will most other nations that share a border with Russia. Germany is a bit less certain, but so far they are on-board, as is most of Europe. Those nations are an unassailable industrial base for Ukraine, unless Putin wants to get into it with the whole of NATO. Which would be suicide, even if the USA abstains. Similar to WWII, neither Germany nor Japan could really attack the industrial base of the allies because they couldn't reach it (i.e. the USA). Putin doesn't dare touch Ukraine's industrial base in NATO.
**I'm reminded of an ad I sometimes see when I'm playing a puzzle game on my phone. The whole premise is that you have an "army", and you move it across mathematical functions (add, subtract, multiply, divide), and then encounter an opposing force. You pass that stage if your army is bigger than the opposing army. That's the simplistic view of "more dudes equals victory" on display here.
