Isn’t a large part of their trouble that NATO is supplying Ukraine?

They didn’t start that until the war was well underway, and Russia was already stopped in it’s tracks.

Also: much of that hardware is coming from Europe, not the US. Also: if NATO disbanded, Europe would have to ramp up military spending: Trump’s big complaint was that France and Germany aren’t carrying their weight.
