But there was a recent CBS poll that showed the United States narrowly divided on whether they approved of how Donald Trump has handled the Ukraine war so far in the month he's been president. Americans also are evenly divided on whether the U.S. should continue to send arms to Ukraine. But when you dig down into those numbers, you'll see a very sharp partisan divide over the issue.

Democrats, they overwhelmingly support continued USAID to Ukraine and Republicans overwhelmingly oppose it. And after that tumultuous visit by Zelensky to the U.S., we did see some pro-Ukrainian protests in the U.S. across the U.S. in a variety of different cities.

Now, as for your question about whether anyone or anybody or anything could be done to stop Trump's decision to suspend aid, it is possible. But all of that is part of what is a larger legal battle.
