The problem is we haven't committed to a mission. I have asked Secretary Blinken to define what he thinks the mission is.

Secretly, I was always hoping I would be surprised it would move really quickly, but as a practical matter, I knew that was not the case.

We have to recognize that would include occupying part of Russia, toppling their government, and replacing them with a different government.
