I don't understand why the Javelins are being discussed. Is it really just "Trump did something Obama wouldn't do?"

Maybe to bolster the argument that Trump wanted to help them? Like "why would he extort them if he already gave them missiles?"

Yes. The argument is "we gave them real aid, why are you so upset?"

Some background on the javelins:

https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/10/03/far-from-the-front-lines-javelin-missiles-go-unused-in-ukraine/

quote:

But while there is evidence that the Javelin sale has been a powerful gesture of support for Kyiv, the missiles’ military application has been far more limited. Under the conditions of the foreign military sale, the Trump administration stipulates that the Javelins must be stored in western Ukraine—hundreds of miles from the battlefield.

“I see these more as symbolic weapons than anything else,” said Samuel Charap, a senior political scientist at Rand Corp. Experts say the conditions of the sale render them useless in the event of a sustained low-level assault—the kind of attack Ukraine is most likely to face from Russia.

Am I supposed to agree with them that it isn't okay to do oppo research in foreign countries?

Because I see no problem with that. A campaign is a private entity. If my oppo research leads me abroad, so be it.

its because the witnesses have basically blown up all their various defenses and trump has their hands tied too.

I'm torn between wanting someone on the D side to bring this up, and them just ignoring Devin Nunes' bullshit instead of engaging with it.
