> Even Zelenskyy acknowledged that the US provides more aid than the EU. And this is despite the fact that Europe has twice the population and doesn't have a vast ocean between it and Russia.

Why does the population matter at all? The US GDP is $30T and the EU GDP is $21T.

> Isn't it exactly the opposite, and it was the EU that attempted to overthrow democracy in the US (and failed)?

What are you talking about? According to US intelligence agencies, bipartisan Senate reports, and federal prosecutions, Russia, China, and Iran have been singled out at running disinformation campaigns. The EU has never been accused by the US of trying to topple democracy in the US.

>the EU has LITERALLY provided less aid to Ukraine than it has given to Russia

The EU is buying resources from Russia, not providing aid to it.
