I used to joke that the real "mistake" Ukrainians made was not being Israel. Obviously this is just true now though. If you aren't America's special little boy you don't get to count on consistent treatment across administrations.

Tankies and campists showing that their only problem with American imperialism was that it messed with their favorite dictatorships. A US imperialism which works hand in hand with Putin and Xi (against the EU, for example) will get critical support.
