He doesn’t understand that either.
From what I can understand that is the Biden doctrine, support liberal democracies, not strongmen and it make perfect sense. Ukraine offers an example of its power, it even worked for the Russians in Vietnam, which was a war of independence to them, in their view the Americans just replaced their French imperial masters. So, betting on nations united by external threats and determined to defend themselves with large popular support, is a pretty good bet. Ukraine is the best bet Uncle Sam ever had in terms of bang for the buck. Think about it, just a minuscule portion of the US total arsenal was sent to Ukraine, a tiny amount of aid compared to the annual military budget. Look at the payoff though, America's main military adversary destroyed on the battlefield both in reality and myth by a highly motivated NATO trained and structured force. The used mainly old soviet weapons on par with the Russians to do a lot of it too. Vlad is on the ropes and now in an existential struggle, so Sammy also got retribution for Russia fucking with the elections and helping to impose Trump on America. Sam should dance on Vlad's corpse for inflicting Trump on ya!

I figure the Russians will eventually take care of Vlad, one way or another. Canada is helping out in proportion to our size and has been since before the war, eastern European countries are doing even more, we are around third or 4th in donor nations, depending on how it is measured.
It was a bit of humor, relax.
It's Putin's fault and almost he alone is responsible for this war and its aftermath, it is one man's war, but not one man's crime(s).
I don’t get it.
That’s ok. Happens to me too.
aaaaaaand when will they stop him?
Time for some restructuring of it or get rid of it and a vote for those not meeting the minimum requirements for a democratic society, as set out previously by the UN itself, the dictators and strongmen can sit as observers. You cannot have a rules based global system with such people involved in enforcing the rules. Only those who have the rule of law and democracy can do that, only those who are actually accountable to the people and nations they represent, whether we agree with them or not.
He's been having sleepless nights lately, worrying and stress does that.
He's being stopped the old-fashioned way, but that takes time, unless you wanna see nukes involved and NATO troops on the ground there. They are not just fighting to stop the current atrocities; they are fighting for their future too and that means their children.
explain please.
