How do they not see that Putin is trying to put the Soviet Union back together and he tried the biggest domino first? Americans like to talk like tough guys all the time.

Motor City Sonics Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 It's not the Russians, it's Putin. An incredible amount of Russians don't want any part of this and never did. It would be like Trump invading Canada and bombing Canadians. I don't think that would fly here. I hope Putin really does have cancer and I hope it kills him painfully and slowly. Quote
Jim Cowan Posted May 26, 2023 Posted May 26, 2023 Those results are very troubling. Among both Republicans and Democrats, fewer people see Russia as an enemy today than did a year ago? How is that even possible? Quote

Expand I was looking at it versus January, which was before the invasion. March of last year was after the invasion. I get why a few points peeled off from last March to this March. Last March was immediately after the invasion which was the high point of top-of-mind awareness. After a while I imagine a marginal amount of people just forgot about it. It's the same principle as when George Bush Jr scored a 84% approval rating among Democrats in the days after 9/11 after being in the 20s just the day before, and fell down to under 50 by the follow June. It's not because he was doing a great job as President overall. It was the heat of the moment. Quote
