Most Americans Oppose More Funding For Ukraine In War With Russia: CNN Poll
A majority of Americans do not want the United States to continue sending aid to Ukraine as its war against Russia nears the year-and-a-half mark, according to a CNN poll released Friday.
Of the more than 1,200 adult respondents to the poll conducted by SSRS, 55% said Congress should not approve additional funding to Ukraine, while 45% supported more funding.
Most Americans (51%) also said that the U.S. has already done enough to support the Ukrainian effort while 48% said the U.S. should do more.
The findings mark a drastic reversal of a CNN poll conducted shortly after Russia’s invasion in February 2022, which found that 62% of Americans wanted the U.S. to do more to help Ukraine.
Whoo! The Ukebros won't like that.
Sadly the funding will continue and the people have zero say so in that. Politicians get rich off of war.
But there's more!
Up until this point, and through 9/30/23, all the Ukraine war money is Democrat money.....Dem controlled House money and Presidential money.
Biden has already punted to McCarthy, so the Dem money has ceased.
Republicans now have to carefully measure the way the winds are blowing with the Public in funding another forever war. Republicans hold a slight majority in the House and now they’ll be responsible for the war money in the new Budget.
The Dems actions, through Biden’s punt, is the right move politically, because they are masters at polling and they know public support is waning.
If McCarthy funds the war, it then becomes a Republican war in the 2024 election cycle. The way Public support is already waning, imagine what it will look like in another year.
