The Spin

Republican narrative

The US must seriously reevaluate its aid to Ukraine as Zelenskyy has shown disrespect to Washington and isn't ready for peace. Continuing US support risks escalating the conflict into World War III; it's essential to avoid wasting American taxpayer money that could be better spent domestically.

Democratic narrative

Cutting off military aid to Ukraine would be a shocking abandonment of an embattled democratic partner nation and effectively hand victory to Russian aggression. Moreover, a halt in support would undermine the credibility of US security commitments globally.
