If Trump was still President Putin would not even be in Ukraine. Putin probably knows Democrat Presidents don’t act until they absolutely have to (WWI, WWII, and Korea as examples).

Read the article. Some of the money is actually for the US to spend on its own purposes...

"The bill allocates $3 billion of the $7.5 billion in military aid for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, which allows the Pentagon to contract for new weapons and equipment for Kyiv, and another $2.8 billion to bolster U.S. forces stationed in the European theater. It also appropriates $1.5 billion in funding to backfill U.S. stockpiles of weapons already sent to Ukraine, an amount that includes $540 million for critical munitions replenishment.

The Pentagon inspector general is also set to receive $2 million in additional funds to oversee this aid."

MSG (Join to see) money well spent...
..."Congress in March approved its first $13.6 billion Ukraine supplemental aid package. Lawmakers tripled that funding in May with a $40 billion package of military, economic and food aid for Ukraine and U.S. allies, which the White House says was designed to last through September. This third supplemental package will bring the total amount of aid to Ukraine that Congress has allocated so far this year to more than $65 billion."...
