Putin wants to conquer Europe. This is bad. The ideology is essentially a version of manifest destiny where Russia expands westward until it consumes all of Europe. Also, of course the members of NATO need to maintain their armies.
No, NATO countries have been supplying weapons to Ukraine.
Your argument should provide that evidence rather than pretending it exists. Russia's fascist authoritarian dictatorship has led to military incompetence.
Russia tried to take Kyiv and lost.
Here are some maps that show what has actually happened in the war:

Ukraine retook territory by November 2022 which is in the last two years.
Also, Ukraine only recently got the green light to strike into Russian territory. This is already having a huge impact on the war.

Trump wants to round up 15 to 20 million people into camps and then deport them. The magnitude of this does not match what the Democrats want to do.
I followed the link you posted in your argument. This is what I found:
This is about a government shutdown. Other than the misleading title, the Democrats do not want to build Trump's border wall. Nor is this evidence that Democrats want to deport 15 to 20 million people.
Newsom wants to doing something similar to what Trump has proposed, there's a whole court case that has made it to the Supreme Court about breaking up homeless camps. The case started in Oregon, but has implications for California. But Newsom actually wants to provide housing and services to people. Newsom erroneously believes these need to be forced on people. When Trump talks about rounding homeless people up it's to put them in death camps.

While well intentioned by Democrats, it's going to backfire if Trump takes office. Under Trump, homeless people are going to end up in either prisons or death camps which will end up being the same thing.
Trump seems to love the death penalty. This reporting suggests Trump wants to use firing squads.
Neo-liberal Democrats wanting to maintain the status quo isn't the nice version of christo-fascist Republicans wanting to kill millions of people.
Trump emboldened Putin to continue his war. Trump emboldened Erdoğan to attack the Kurds. Trump emboldened the Taliban to retake Afghanistan. Trump not declaring war is not a measure of success. He destabilized the world the last time he was in office. Under another Trump term we are likely to see China invade Taiwan and North Korea invade South Korea.
Biden got an infrastructure deal done and has cancelled some student debt, among other things. This has a list Biden's foreign and domestic accomplishments:

As opposed to Trump's crime spree:

Reviewing the evidence shows a stark difference between Biden, a neo-liberal, and Trump, a fascist. The difference between another Biden term and another Trump term is that millions of lives can be saved under another Biden term. Where as Trump will usher in a christo-fascist dictatorship that will end our democracy and destabilize the world. These are vastly different outcomes. edit: typo
Russia says the attack on Kyiv was to destroy munition supplies and wasn't intended to be an occupation.
I can't know if that's true or not, but Russia hasn't tried any other attacks on Kyiv, so I'm tempted to believe it.
Wow. In just four years. How inspiring.
That's a lie.
Google it. The truth is knowable.
That's because Russia is losing the war.
Why would you want to believe the lies of a fascist dictatorship? Your argument boils down to mistaking Russia's defeats at the hands of Ukraine as a nonexistent strategy.
Biden has accomplished everything with a razor thin majority in Congress in the first two years and then a Republican controlled House in the second two years. It's impressive.
So they've been telling us for the past two years while the front line has barely moved.
It's not a matter of what I want to believe. (To paraphrase Ben Shapiro, facts don't care about my feelings.)
There are two competing narratives out there, and one fits the evidence I can see while the other is getting increasingly hard to believe.
I already debunked this false claim in my argument.
Facts can't care about anything. Being tempted implies you want the thing that is being offered. I want to know why you would want to be lied to, because it's a weird thing to want. Also, your argument provides no facts and misrepresents Russian defeats by Ukraine as strategy that Russia does not have.
There is the truth and Russian propaganda. Your argument has no evidence to support it.
Also, to bring this discussion back to the original topic at hand, Biden is a neo-liberal and Trump is a fascist. They are not the same. Thus it is reasonable that a group that is against Trump's fascist MAGA movement is anti-fascist.
