This is why Trump is extorting Ukraine. The people of the USA are overwhelmingly in favor of helping Ukraine fight against Putin's imperialistic invasion.

50-50 is about ending the war or reclaiming lost territories.

Polls about US support in your link is : "Americans are also split as to whether the U.S. is doing too much (37%), the right amount (31%) or not enough (30%) to aid Ukraine."

So 37% : "we should do less/abandon/be against Ukraine"
and 62% : "we should continue to back up Ukraine"

It's the same question phrased differently. I'd imagine a significant portion of the "right amount" answers don't have strong feelings either way.

Regardless, I wouldn't really consider 62% "overwhelming," but I guess that"s subjective.
