> trump is not jackson hinkle irrelevant. he definitely does have actual allies, not just orbiters, that want ukraine kicked to the curb. in congress you had vance, mtg, gaetz, boebert, scott, hawley. speaker johnson got lambasted for bringing ukraine bills to the floor before republican demands were met, and ukraine aid is one of the reasons mtg and gaetz kicked mccarthy. with trump returning to office johnson already rejected biden's request to schedule a new ukraine bill; most spending is controlled by the house so they can obviously send more to ukraine than the executive alone can. within his administration everyone is a hardcore zionist, but like one guy has mentioned ukraine. there are more future cabinet members fear mongering or questioning aid to ukraine than have made commitments to defend them. you say trump has some affinity for europe, but that does not translate to security guarantees. he recently said he'd consider leaving nato, that ukraine should not join, and that he didn't approve of ukrainian strikes on russian territory.  he and his party, and by that i mean his closest colleagues, not just the generic mccain republican, have undermined ukraine's cause, raised concerns about the implications of funding a proxy war against russia, and have refuted the notion that america and ukraine have shared interests in eastern europe. only israel gets unconditional support. seriously study the difference in rhetoric about israel's interests, and ukraine's.
