How Americans (not all of them, of course!) put up with Trump's spineless handling of the war in Ukraine is way beyond me. I can kind of understand if Americans don't care too much about the situation in Ukraine, but Trump's incompetence regarding Ukraine/Russia is just incredible.

No need to answer this, I guess. Trump promised everyone something, and for some reason, that something is sufficient and his voters don't much care what he does about other matters. Ukraine is those other matters for his voters because it's so distant.

They all think Russia will nuke them and scared.

I've honestly seen escalation management from someone I considered pretty smart at some point. That, among some other views I find somewhat dubious, led me to reconsider my opinion of that person. Could be another example of people being very competent in certain areas but not necessarily in others. That said, I doubt fear/worry is the case with the majority of Trump's voters, but I could certainly be wrong.
