Zelensky actually specifically said that they didn’t seem to want to give enough aid to “win” particularly, just enough not to lose

Not to stir up too much, but it's Zelensky's job to constantly ask for more and more and more, and to push and prod and guilttrip and use every angle for every piece of aid. I don't think there's any level of aid given right now where he wouldn't turn around and ask for more, saying what he's getting isn't enough. He's a politician who is trying to leverage for maximum aid rather than an objective source. That's not a knock, just saying that that's his job right now.

America isn't putting the weight of its military in as if it were being invaded, but it is and has been sending hundreds of billions worth of equipment, and people online only seem grateful for about 5 minutes when each shipment arrives, before going back to knocking the U.S. The U.S. didn't invade Ukraine; the U.S. has advised and helped train them, and given them aid.

The earlier above comment wasn't meant to say it isn't giving aid, but it did downplay it and thanks only came when that was noted.
