The MAGA wing of the Republican Party (aka, the Kremlin) is rapidly succeeding in changing American’s opinions about supporting Ukraine in their existential war against Russia. I have written about this unsettling phenomena many times recently, including one post with the title: Russian disinformation and American stupidity. This new poll more than confirms that thesis. – David DeBatto
Excerpt from The Hill:
“The share of Americans across the political spectrum who support sending arms to Ukraine has dropped, according to a Reuters/Ipsos survey released Thursday. The poll, conducted Tuesday and Wednesday, showed only 41 percent of respondents said they agreed that the United States should provide weapons to Ukraine, down from 65 percent of respondents who said the same in a June 2023 survey. That decline in support for sending weapons to Ukraine extends across parties. Democratic support dropped from 81 percent in June to 52 percent in October. Republican support dropped from 56 percent to 35 percent in the same period. Independent support dropped from 57 percent to 44 percent. The decline in support comes after Congress passed a continuing resolution Saturday to extend government funding until Nov. 17 that did not include funding for Ukraine. Many members have vowed to pass separate legislation to provide more aid in the immediate future, however.”

“We are tasked, essentially, with building a new world.” – Vladimir Putin
Excerpts from Barrons:
“President Vladimir Putin said Thursday that Russia’s mission was to create a “new world” and blamed Western hegemony for Moscow’s grinding offensive in Ukraine. Putin has portrayed Russia’s full-scale military intervention in Ukraine — launched in February 2022 — as part of a long-standing confrontation with the West. “We are tasked, essentially, with building a new world,” Putin said, adding the West was aiming for global “hegemony.” “The West always needs an enemy,” he said. As Moscow grows more isolated in the West and faces unprecedented sanctions over its Ukraine campaign, Putin accused the West of trying to create a “new Iron Curtain” with Russia. “Europe is fencing itself off from us and creating a new Iron Curtain,” said Putin, who served in the Soviet KGB. “We are not the ones shutting the door. It’s Europe that’s shutting the door,” he added.” – Barrons

I never trust a poll that I haven’t falsified myself.
“Another recent poll showed a larger share of Americans backing both types of aid for Ukraine, however. In a poll by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs released Wednesday, 61 percent of respondents supported sending economic assistance to the country and 63 percent supported sending arms and military supplies.”
“Though that survey found support to be higher across the political spectrum, it also showed a partisan split, with 76 percent of Democrats, 47 percent of Republicans and 58 percent of independents supporting economic aid and 50 percent of Republicans, 77 percent of Democrats and 60 percent of independents supporting military aid.”
He’s just another TDS stricken wannabe writer with a one trick pony that probably sleeps with a Karl Marx statue instead of a wife. 😉
I agree. Either we send REAL arms enabling Ukraine to liberate at least Donbas or the ca$h is downe the toilet.
I don’t understand your continued push for the Donbass, but I agree allies need to go all in with formidable weapons provisions.
I don’t believe any of the assistance to Ukraine is money or provisions that “went down the toilet” .
Ouch… “The Telegraph: Joe Biden intends to ask the Congress for the largest package of military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine. It could be worth $100 billion.”
I estimate the actual percentage of US citizens in favor of supporting Ukraine is closer to 10%. The vast majority of people don’t care what’s happening on the other side of the planet. Your average American is really quite stupid.
FUCK YOU DUCK!!!
I guess you’re offended by the truth. I’m an observer. I’ve recently observed many more incidents of people repeating Kremlin propaganda versus voicing support for ukraine. One person even told me Zelensky is a nazi. Where are all the common folks that support ukraine? They’re much more concerned with how they’re going to make their $6,000 mortgage payment on their $800,000 home. That’s literally 75% of America. Maybe it was my comment about the average American’s intellenence. Read the nation’s report card. Ask yourself how a pizza delivery boy gets a loan to buy an $800,000 home. Pay your $9.53 grocery tab with $20.03 and watch massive confusion unfold.
If it was remotely truthful I wouldn’t have been so pissed off at ya.
But your further ramblings show how delusional and out of touch you are.
With the exception of more people repeating kremlin propaganda, they however contrary to some polls do not make up the majority.
You think 75% of Americans have an $800,000 dollar home?🙄🤣
I admit to exaggerating a bit to make the point that for most people their selfish desires, shallow as they are, have a higher priority in their life than thoughts of helping Ukraine. I don’t like it but that’s my observation. BTW, in many places in the US the median home price is half-million plus so $800,000 is not all that outrageous. Give it ten years and everyone will need an $800,000 mortgage to buy a home.
Ok. I hit Reply before entering my name.😬
I’ll concede that many having selfish desires will be shallow in their priorities. Some have no clue what happens in their neighborhood let alone what is going on in Ukraine.
Never argue with someone with multiple personality disorder. If they can’t just use one personality they are just here to antagonize. Bert, Anon, Duck, and the rest are just shit throwers that got kicked off of all the other formats and loves nothing but themselves.
Obviously you’re not American but I would bet you 100 American dollars that the USA saved your country from disaster at least once in it’s history.
It’s not a multiple personality. I replied as Anonymous by mistake because the user interface has changed, making posts by Anonymous an easy mistake to make. I noticed another user asking why all their posts are now Anonymous. Apparently I’m ‘obviously not American’ if I point out the failing of public education (read ‘The Nation’s Report Card’). There’s a reason rich kids go to private schools. BTW, teachers are not the problem but that’s another discussion altogether. And what about the economist that was a primary architect of the Obama care law; he said it passed because of the stupidity of the American voter; he’s obviously not American too? Like with addiction, the first step to a cure is to acknowledge the problem.
