A 46% plurality of Americans think the U.S. is not doing enough to support Ukraine, marking a sharp change in sentiment since December, largely among Democrats.

The fact that it's only 46% is really dissapointing and depressing.

Yea. My thought as well.

Seeing so many conflate supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty with bush’s Iraq war or shit from the 1800s has been REAL depressing.

Supporting an ally against an anti democratic invader vs spending 3 trillion to BE the anti democratic invader. Thats the difference in the US political parties… but yea its all the same… both sides.

You can squint your eyes and say “they are the same” or take the weak argument that if “the US”(certainly not republicans but everyone, including citizens that disagreed with republicans) ever got anything wrong in the past they have no right to do anything correct in the future…

That’s why you get 46% that recognize the forest for the trees and then compare that to presidential elections turnout…
