It's not about Ukraine alone, it's about defending the ideals which America and the west at large has prospered greatly from and it's about messaging. There is absolutely no way US ally's are watching this favorably. Is America out of money and weapons, so they can't afford to help? I doubt it. Seems like the actual problem is a cultural shift with the US leadership towards favoring autocrats over those who want to defend democracy. You don't get to be in charge of the global world currency by ignoring those who want to partner with you while they are being destroyed by an autocrat. It will erode trust. Nothing is free, especially being the top dog. I also don't see people complaining so much about the ridiculous amount of aid going to Israel, even though I don't really have a problem with that either because I personally think it's for a good cause. But this really seems to be about votes, and here, I'll say it, US politics being hijacked by nut jobs and conspiracy theorists. I personally think the US at large is currently the victim of Russian propaganda efforts. I just can't imagine how the US would've ended up helping out Russia so much again it's European allies all on it's own.
