Because Trump knows that if we are now throwing infrastructure money at another foreign power the American people would want to make sure we were getting value for money.
And if Trump hasn't got to the bottom of the Biden nonsense before forking over millions of dollars, then there would be no way to ever find out.

If you have any ability to process priorities involving national security interests, think about this, and I think you'll see your argument takes a far back seat, and I will agree with your statement that it's Biden nonsense compared to national security.

The house and senate convened multiple hearings with the state department, intelligence community, and pentagon experts assessing the national security interests in helping the Ukraine defend itself against illegal incursions into their country. Trump has opposed military aid to the Ukraine from the time he took office, in spite of a right wing narrative that he has given them aid, he has in fact aggressively blocked aid that would be used against Russian mercenaries that Putin denied any affiliation with. Military aid was passed by congress, and the state department and pentagon were mystified to blocks on the funding, it took some time to get to the bottom of who was blocking it since it was not being done through official channels.

Russia took over regions in the eastern Ukraine, forcing Ukrainian forces to withdraw because they had not gotten the promised military aid. Now we just recently heard that Mulvaney had blocked the release of funds because they were afraid of what Putin's reaction would be to the Ukraine using US military weapons against his Russian tanks. Trump acted against the wishes of Congress, the state department, intelligence services and the pentagon in matters of serious national security. He did Putin a favor at the expense of our ally.

Are you aware of how Trump and his unofficial cadre were threatening the Ukraine and withheld the military aid for months?

Why is it necessary for the u s. To bankroll and fortify the Ukraine? Maybe Americans didn't want that and Trump is working for Americans and not Ukraiinians.

We can use that money at home. And Trump ran on bringing troops home not fighting foreign wars.
