A new poll released on Thursday has revealed that the majority of Republican Americans do not support providing weapons and financial support to Ukraine, compared to their Democrat or independent counterparts.

The Axios/Ipsos Two Americas poll found that overall, 59 percent of Americans, or three in five, support providing weapons and financial support to the Eastern European nation. Most Democrats and independents agreed as well, at 79 and 60. percent, respectively.

42 percent of Republicans said that the US could provide such support to Ukraine.

The poll also focused on the 20th anniversary of the United States invading Iraq, which found that Republicans were more likely to say that the US was right to invade Iraq than their Democrat or independent counterparts.

58 percent of Republicans said that the US was right, compared to 26 percent of Democrats and 32 percent of independents.

31 percent of Americans overall said that the Iraq war has made the US less safe, while the majority of Americans, 54 percent, said that the US’s focus on national defense and homeland security in the last 20 years has made the country safer.

73 percent of Americans said the US should continue to "try to be the global leader."

The Axios/Ipsos Two Americas poll was conducted between March 10 and 13 of 1,018 American adults. The poll has a margin of error of 3.3 percent.

I have learned to hate both sides, and their backers, in this conflict.

That's all well and good Laz. The problem with interfacing with the ukenutZ is that they don't recognize that some of US don't support Russia or The Ukraine. I certainly don't. We just want the USA to GTFO. That's the mortal sin for posters like the berliner. They seem to think they can insult their way to force our support. It's a fools errand. I have to admit, I do like getting the berliner riled up. He's so easily triggered. It could be that the spandex cuts off his oxygen supply.

Putin Stooges like birdboy never criticize Putin.

He is one of the tools who will tell you all day what is wrong about America, Ukraine, NATO, etc... but never Putin while he claims he is not pro Russian.

He thinks you are too stupid to see he supports Putin while he moans in this thread about the American Indians.

Sh!tting on America comes easy for him but never Russia.

I can’t think of one reason why we should defend Ukraine’s borders but not our own.

Well, ‘the elites’ launder their money there - and send their whore monger drug addicted sons to work ‘no work jobs’ in that cesspool. I guess that’s worth our country going broke for...

Hunter’s of the world need $60,000 a MONTH jobs to support their sexual kinks. Someone has to pay for that ‘right of the elites’...

Hey nutter. The American Indian reference applies today with the recent announcement that the west NEVER intended to honor agreements with Russia. Victoria will be by later to pat you on the head. Try not to roll over and pee yourself in her presence, it's unbecoming.

Birdbrain Putin Stooge replies with garbage from the Putin Troll Factory, but he still does not critisze Russia... he is actually defending them.

It's like that simpleton wanted to prove me correct that he thinks you are too stupid Laz, to know he is against America but not Putin.

Leave Laz out of this you dumb f’tard. He said his piece and moved on. I’d do the same if you would stop stalking me.

Poor baby Putin Stooge.
If only the world would leave you and Putin alone and Ukrainians stopped defending their country, family and freedom... your miserable existence would be so much better.

Job growth will soon end. Much of the so-called growth is due to a return to normal after COVID.

You gained my attention by posting to me first saying I am a Biden stooge.

Now you cry like a baby because I nailed you in both thread as a Fanatical Putin Stooge who never criticizes Putin.

Go ahead and spam more of your paranoia.
That’s all you have left.

We should defend our borders and help Ukraine. Even England, Germany, Norway and a lot of other countries see the threat that a newly charged aggressive Russia poses to the peaceful world. Even the Democrat doves who have usually been chicken shit in defending this country can see it. I don’t understand why you can’t see it either.

Well, we’re NOT defending our borders.

It’s like we “could have eggs and bacon for breakfast IF we had eggs AND if we had bacon”.

We’re defending a country we have ZERO shared interest with...

Our corrupt ‘elites’ benefit from keeping Ukraine’s money laundry open - we, the people, don’t.

And the ‘domino’ effect? If Putin invaded Poland - a NATO country - we could defend them without defending Ukraine. There’s many wars of going on

in the world. We don’t need to be involved in any of them right now. We need to defend OUR country. Period.

I don’t understand how you can’t see this.

Poland will kick Putin’s ass, even without NATO help.

We have a shared interest in Ukraine because Russia is a dangerous influence and a bad actor in world affairs. To ignore it is like ignoring Hitler. We aid them to fight Russia so we don't have to fight Russia and this makes sense to me.

By embargoing Russia we also dissuade China from attacking Taiwan. An embargo of China would be a lot more effective on them than on Russia. We also prevent Russia and China from joining each other in further misadventures. Ia sure even you could see the disater that would be.

This stupid war is draining our assets and will make the situation with China worse. And besides, Putin is NOT Hitler. Only Hitler was Hitler. Saying something doesn’t make it true - they called Trump ‘Hitler’ too - and us.

You have to make a better case than name calling.

And we’d be more comfortable helping Poland.
