The really funny bit is that Trump sent $200M in aid to Ukraine back in 2018 and that was just the tip of the iceberg.

As of December 31, 2025, the U.S. had disbursed 58 percent of the $188 billion in spending related to the conflict (U.S. spending is first appropriated, then obligated, then disbursed).

Anyone saying Trump wasn't enthusiastically sending NATO arms and armor to the Ukrainian battlefront is either deeply misinformed our outright lying. The big difference between Biden and Trump, wrt Ukraine, was that Trump loved to get big beautiful photo-ops with Putin where they were both smiling and shaking hands. Meanwhile, Biden preferred photo-ops where he was frowning and shaking his head.

But look at the numbers in your second link. Biden gave Ukraine considerably more per year. With 60 Billion aid in 2024. In December 2024 a loan of 20 Billion was given. Since then no major aid bills have been passed.

Your link says the opposite of what you're arguing.

And those 200 Million in 2018 are peanuts.
