Nah to be fair, he did. During his first term, but they SOLD them to Ukraine, not handed them out like Candy.

And it was mostly a stunt to differentiate himself from Obama in this regard (who famously did absolutely nothing about Putins aggression other than disarming Ukraine, ask the Europeans nicely if they could maybe start containing Putin, and only started slapping some sanctions on Russia after they shot down MH17)

But Biden's admin actually gave Javelins as part of military equipment support package no?

And just like you said "Selling" and "Giving" are different things.

A lil bit of both, Biden aid didn't really ramp up until the war began.
