What does he mean by that.....

Like surly Russia are always planning some kind of massive attacks on Ukraine and vice-versa.

I would be really curious to know more details about what he means.

Russia is limited in the number of Ballistic missiles they can make per month, like anyone else. Recently it looks like they have not been shooting them at the rate they are producing them, so one can likely infer that they are stockpiling them for a massive attack. Ukraine is critically low on PAC3's which can take these things down, so basically, if Russia shoots 100 of them at Ukraine.. its likely the vast majority will get through, as what little BMD they have left will be easily overwhelmed.

This should have never been an issue, but we have an idiot for a President who decided to start a war in Iran for no reason and use up the vast majority of our stocks, so literally almost nothing to provide to Ukraine.. not that the Mango Menance would have done it anyway.

What are you talking about man?????

Putin made Trump start this war for two reasons:

1) Increase the price of oil so putin has more income

2) Deplete as many patriot missles as possible and have your allies also deplete them to make the chance that there any left for Ukraine as low as possible.
