Wonder how the anti Ukraine funding crowd will spin supporting Trumps wanting to fund the rebuild of Gaza.
The newly-minted "no more forever wars" party is fine with sending American troops to die in foreign lands as long as it's Trump sending them, and doubly so if the deployment involves Israel.

Trump says US will take over Gaza Strip with troops 'if necessary'

I think this is overblown. Most aid appropriations involved reorders for US stocks to replace those sent, and those replacement munitions are more costly.Zelensky Claims Ukraine Received Less Than Half of U.S. Aid, ‘Don’t Know Where All That Money Went’

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that his country has only received around $76 billion in aid from the United States despite America authorising around $175 billion to support the war-torn country.
In an interview with the Associated Press published over the weekend, President Zelensky said he doesn’t know where most of the money the United States allocated under the Biden administration to Ukraine has gone.
“When I hear – both in the past and even now – from the U.S. that America has provided Ukraine with hundreds of billions, as the president of a nation at war, I can tell you – we’ve received more than $75 billion,” he said. “We’re talking about tangible things because this aid didn’t come as cash but rather as weapons, which amounted to about $70 billion.”

"There is no official [plan] yet. What is present in certain publications ... I am sure that this is not President Trump's official plan," Zelenskyy said on Thursday.
What does the amount of money Russia spends to conduct a war they started have to do with the aid the US has sent to Ukrain?
