In America, Leftist politics have infected EVERYTHING. The last thing we should trust is a poll conducted for Newsweek.

In fact, everything is suspect.

Our country is in the midst of a Marxist revolution. And the first casualty of war is the truth.

... Russia will almost certainly use all means at its disposal to PREVENT Ukraine from joining NATO. Perhaps they should ask Americans if they’re ready to deal with the implications of that happening?
What implications are those?
Finland joins NATO over Russia's objection

Virtually none of those polled have any idea of what Ukrainian NATO membership entails.

Yeah, we don’t have enough countries we’ve agreed to die for alraqdy....

Also Ukraine gives the great jobs to corrupt whore monger sons of American liberal ‘elites’... and allows ‘men’ like George Soros to launder their money there... What’s not to love? Right?

Worth killing off thousands of working class Americans. in some worthless war to help our elites live better.

Not North, and not Atlantic. And not Europe.

Ukraine is a kleptocracy attached to Russia. Always has been. US has no strategic interest there.

No, I think a lot of people just want nothing to do with it.

Actually, most Americans likely don’t care.

For all practical purposes, Ukraine no longer exists. It’s part of Russia now. Ukraine screwed-up, they listened to us and did business with corrupt American politicians. Let that be a lesson to other wanabe nato countries. No good can come from anything nato.

Before Russian invasion I was preferring a non-NATO Ukraine to maintain a buffer.

Unfortunately a little over a year ago Russia’s aggression has put me up on the fence on this issue but tilting away from refusing Ukraine’s entry into NATO


I want us out of NATO.

I want others to pay their fair share. There’s no need for us to pay any more than the other NATO members. There is no “Premium Package” to be had by paying into it more than the other members. An attack is an attack and a deal is a deal and paying $100 in dues while the others put in only a couple of bucks does not give us extra protection coverage.

To heck with the Ukraine.

Isolationism did not treat us well in the early 20th century.

We’re broke to the tune of a trillion dollars.

I think we should begin the cutting on domestic programs. Maybe do away with the Department of Education, lift all restrictions against oil / coal exploration in the US, stop the flooding the nation with unvetted illegals from more than 100 countries, a tax system that invites manufacturing back to the US and deports illegals and prison time for second offence illegals that’s taking care of our own interests.

Where do you stand on peace through strength?

Secondly, if Hawaii were attacked is that covered under NATO?

It would be ironic if it were not since it was Pearl Harbor that brought us into World War 2

I would much rather end NATO. I do not want Ukraine in NATO anyway.

Finland it was giving nukes to Belarus. Seems like a reasonable trade to me.

“We don’t even know if this survey is real.

That is true although it would not surprise me if it was.

Gosh, I sure don’t want them to join.
They simply don’t qualify.

Wrong. That was actually because allies were giving uranium-based ammo to the Ukrainians.

That's me.
I thought about it I can say with absolutely no compunction that it is impossible for me to care any less if Congress’ money laundry joins NATO.
