even Republicans favor supporting Ukraine

Not anymore:

Views on Ukraine are far less favorable for Republicans than Democrats already, views of Russia more positive among Republicans. And I promise you, that difference is getting more dramatic soon. Other articles note this is a dramatic shift from last year.

I hope you are right, but propaganda is powerful, and I suspect the same kind of populism could absolutely take off in the EU.

Ukraine: Total favorable 63% Total unfavorable 31

How does that support your claim "Not anymore"?

Because there’s a drastic disparity between Republicans/Democrats, and (not illustrated in this pdf alone), the level of support among Republics dropped massively within a year.

Every Republican parrots Trump. At this point, that's what makes them Republican. They will be in lock-step once Trump's betrayal of Ukraine filters down to their low-information bubble.
