Despite Trump’s decidedly critical tone toward Ukraine and its president and warm gestures toward Russia, the level of overall American public sympathy with Ukraine and the lack of sympathy for Russia have not changed since the summer of 2024. If the intent of the public spat with Zelenskyy was to sour the American mood toward Ukraine, the latest poll indicates that it was a failure, not only in the continued high level of sympathy with Ukraine but also in that more people rated Trump’s performance as inappropriate than said the same about the Ukrainian president’s performance in that unprecedented meeting.
With only about one-third of Americans supporting his decision to suspend aid to Ukraine, Trump may have helped himself by quickly renewing the provision of aid and getting Ukraine to reportedly agree to a 30-day ceasefire in the war with Russia.
As one might expect, the president has had some impact on his core Republican constituency. But the drop in Republican sympathy with Ukraine from 58% last summer to 45% now is modest if one considers that the Republican president is still in his early honeymoon period.
Trump received more support from Republicans for his aid suspension, with about two-thirds supporting the decision, and 21% opposing it. But while favoring Trump, one might expect more support for a president from his own party on a top and high-profile policy issue this early in his term.
Of course, a ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine war could impact public attitudes moving forward, especially at a time when polls show more Americans favor a quick end to the war. For now, though, the bottom line is that the American public appears to have made up its mind on Ukraine and Russia and Trump is cutting against the grain.
Lmao. Nah. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning
Thanks that’s interesting! Another tactic is the ‘fake educating’, where they provide trash evidence and lots of it, and demand that you look at it otherwise you don’t want to learn the ‘truth’. There’s a tankie here who does that.
I mean not every video I have of the Mariupol Massacre is entirely pro-Russia biased.
One of them show a bad actor in the form of a anti-maidan separatist whom hid a gun, pulled it out and shot at Ukrainian troops before hiding behind a crowd forcing Ukrainian troops to fire into the crowd to get this bad actor but they end up accidentally shooting a unarmed civilian in the head, the photo of the dead body (or sometimes the video but with the bad actor suspiciously cut out iirc) is often sent out without any mention of bad actor and without context.
But videos that take place prior to this incident show Ukrainian troops have also shot at unarmed civilians with little to no provocation nor any bad actor being in play.
I feel bad for you, that you have only that 1 propaganda talking point and video. Against the reams of evil shit Russia has done and everyone knows about. If you want my advice you should switch sides.
I have multiple videos. I’ll just PM you all of them.
You can talk about Russian crimes as well, Bucha et cetera but it doesn’t discount Ukraine’s crimes.
And in the end, this is Zelenskyy’s war.
Sir, this is Russia’s war.
Nope, this is Zelenskyy’s war.

Are we talking about Russia’s crimes in Ukraine, the country it invaded 3 years ago while using double speech about a special operation? When Ukraine has occupied vast amounts of Russian land, stolen Russian children, raped and abused Russian people… Then maybe I’ll watch your shitty propaganda.
How do you feel about your country having groups of male soldiers that the other soldiers rape when they feel like it? You should show your support of russia and its military by joining that group. Then you can be a real brownnoser.
What about it other than that it is truly horrendous stuff?
On the topic of stolen children, perhaps you should research Operation Babylift. Operation Babylift was the mass kidnapping of allegedly orphaned children from South Vietnam to the United States. The Russians gave similar reasons for them evacuating children.
However, many children in both operations were not actually orphans and had families thus in both situations, it was kidnapping not evacuating but in Russia’s case, as part of negotations, Russia and Ukraine return children to families.
What the hell was Russia supposed to do? Let them starve to death in rubble?
To paraphrase some guy 5 days ago, many of Ukraine’s children were sitting in abandoned orphanages and other abandoned buildings such as schools in an active warzone and then were evacuated from cities the Russians knew that Ukrainians would probably hit with artillery.
Would you rather have them die?
Perhaps you should focus on truly horrendous Russian atrocities like Bucha massacre and Izium massacre.
Downvote count is minus 33 so far. I’m realising that this sealion thing can work both ways.
Have you seen the CIA manual on how to purposefully be so shit at your job that you’re harming the place you work for? It’s doing the rounds, but I can find you a link if you want. I do realise that you may have little option in this. By all means continue with the word count if this is earning your children a crust of bread and keeping you out of the gulag.
Or maybe you already are on board with doing covert resistance, hence make statements like
‘what was Russia supposed to do, leave them to starve to death in rubble?’
After Russia invaded their country, bombed it and killed their parents. Lol, you have to laugh at how you’re trying to argue that Russia becomes the good guy because they didn’t just leave the children to starve in the rubble the russians themselves created with their illegal war… Instead they stole the children after they had bombed them.
I suggest they give those Ukrainian children back to Ukraine.
Truly unfortunate, but something that Zelenskyy could have prevented.
There are no good guys in geopolitics, it is completely subjective.
A war that Zelenskyy himself created by failing to implement Minsk.
Russia has been returning children to families in Ukraine via agreements and negotiations reached via diplomatic channels in Qatar.
