A majority of Americans still support aid to Ukraine, the main group of Americans that are showing a lack of support are Republicans. Here's a fun chart demonstrating that. And showing how Republicans immense lack of support is driving the average down.
We should be aiding Hawaii greatly with what's going on over there right now just as we should every time a natural disaster hits an area.
Basically this post is a response to the amount of people I've seen and heard saying that we should be sending aid to Hawaii instead of Ukraine rather than aiding both.
We have a large budget for aid for natural disasters, it should be larger due to their increased frequency but it's still quite large.
