US support for Ukraine makes sense in a selfish geopolitical move. Russia is now so weak they couldn't possibly wage war against anyone else, for the low cost of enabling Ukraine to do what they wanted to anyways.

However continued support for allies is always dependent on political winds, and the US is particularly turbulent right now.
