Our soft power has taken a greater hit from our unwavering support for Israel than this.

Some truth there but Israel has been expected due to prior policy.

Shitting on your supposed "ally" makes other allies wonder when you gonna do it to them.

Soft power is when your allies play ball with out a gun to their head. Allies support israel by and large and those who oppose won't under mine their US relationship over it.

So from soft power perspective shitting on Ukraine very bad optics especially in light Trump pulled out a chair for bibi and then suck his dick on camera for the world to see.

Right or wrong (it is wrong in my opinion), supporting Israel and letting them do whatever the fuck they want while shoving weapons down their throat and no one daring to fuck beyond with them beyond words because you're backing them is an extreme show of the extent of your soft power I would argue.

Pulling support from a former ally in open war against your historical arch nemesis because your leader feels like they didn't thank them enough is the opposite. It tells everyone else that your words mean nothing. What about Taiwan tomorrow? Did they thank Trump enough to be protected from Chinese aggression?

That's the literal opposite to unwavering support of your ally even if that ally behaves like a lunatic (read: genocidal maniac).

Translation: you’ve either been under a rock, or you’ve been watching nothing but Faux News.

This, folks, is why it’s important to stay informed with actual news and information. So you don’t ask a silly question like this.

Canada, Mexico, the UK, the EU.
I can guarantee Africa, South America, Australia, New Zealand... All countries are paying attention.
All are recognising the US as significany weaker than they have been in a long time. All of them are making power grabs by supporting Ukraine and investigating new trade alliances/deals not involving the US, further weakening US power.
While these are absolutely the moral and correct things to do, and supporting Ukraine is the human thing to do, bolstering international security - there is also a huge amount of soft power to be had in the support, and a good reason to up domestic arms production which helps replace/offset Americas hard power (IE military might).
Where countries have relied on American weapons before, the threat of America "switching off" a countries jets and missiles cannot be ignored.
