A new poll is now showing that Americans are growing increasingly concerns about the Russian invasion of Ukraine and what it means for U.S. security.

As The Hill reports:

More than half of Americans view a Russia-Ukraine conflict as a critical threat to U.S. interests, according to a Gallup poll released Friday that was conducted before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

As tensions with Russia rose during Gallup’s Feb. 1-17 World Affairs poll, 52 percent of Americans surveyed said that the conflict was a critical threat.

Respondents who identified as Democrats (61 percent) were slightly more likely than Republicans (56 percent) to see the conflict as a critical threat.

However, Republicans (72 percent) are more likely than Democrats (64 percent) to see Russian military efforts as a critical threat more generally. Independents were slightly less likely to view Russia as a threat, at 48 percent.

The results signal a significant change from 2015, when a significantly lower percentage of Americans viewed Russia’s military actions as a concern.

  1. Are there any adults who are willing to close our southern border & finish President Trump’s wall. I don’t care about Ukraine’s border, I care about this country’s border. Jihad Joe invited the terrorists, drug cartels, pedophiles, rapists, child traffickers, perverts…all unchecked with diseases, then the fraudulent puppet (p) resident will give them everything for free. Send them all to Joey’s house to live. God help us.

    1. Biden is sending them back south of the border just as was done earlier. As for Haitians, he has flown them back to Haiti. The “open border” meme is something Republicans have made up. Biden has repeatedly said on TV to prospective south-of-the-border immigrants, “Stay where you are in your own country and apply for immigration.” The way you are talking, you would think no one was watching our borders or that people were freer to cross than they have been under the previous 4 or 5 Presidents. They aren’t. The Covid pandemic has just made the people who are south of the border more desperate in trying to get to America, and the greater numbers of those trying to get across shows this.

      1. How did the 2 million that Border patrol captured wind up transported to bus terminals, and airports around the country in the middle of the night??? The 2Million represent about 20% of those crossing.

        STOP drinking the cool aide!!!!

    1. This was all intentional as a distraction from the WA invader so we can forget about all his other big failures and how we are being economically affected.
      All you need to know is how he shared classified information with the guy from China who then passed it on to Putin.

  3. That’s how MSM, mainstream misleadia is spinning the story. Start thinking globalist vs nationalist. Europe is out of natural resources.
    Europe and the United nations are globalist.

    1. THANK YOU!! Finally someone besides me sees it. People forget that Russia, under Czar Nikolai Romanov, refused to allow the Central Bank to operate in Russia. Result? Bolshevik Revolution.

    2. I have plenty more to post but AAN does a GREAT job of preventing my posts from posting despite the fact that I do not swear, threaten, or instigate bad behavior.

    1. I agree Biden’s a joke, but that doesn’t make this conflict magically affect the United States like it’s being portrayed..

      1. It does affect the US. It’s affect is immediate in that it fuels economic anxiety which shows up in all markets. It affects us in the medium term as it damages our credibility abroad ,aking it exceedingly more difficult to negotiate, persuade and affect other foriegn policy critical to our security.
        It affects us long term in that it significantly streghthens one long time adversary, and emboldens others.

  4. LISTEN UP…GOD is on UKRAINES Side. HE will HELP the UKRAINE People. GOD is Against BULLIES and THOSE who SHED INNOCENT BLOOD. The BALL is in GOD’S Court. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄😇😇😇

    1. God has no interest in human politics. he gave us free will to royal screw up everything, if we so choose. It’s up to us, not God to fix the messes we make.

    Well, they should. Any covenant we have made and signed, and then knowly renege on that covenant is a great sin.
    This is one reason the United States is in such great danger of being destroyed in the coming weeks, or months.
    On April 30, 1789, the members of the United States federal government met together for the first time in St. Paul’s Cathedral in New York City to dedicate to God the newly formed nation under the just-ratified U.S. Constitution. The new House of Representatives and Senate, along with the Supreme Court, declared in unison that this nation would be governed by God and the people would worship Him in the affairs of state and in their own lives. No record of what was said exists – the occasion was too solemn for anyone to take notes. But the event was known to all.

    1. We have made no covenant with Ukraine that I know of, but we do have a covenant with Europe to which the Europeans are not fully living up to their part – financing.

    1. what he should have said is “I’m more of a threat than Russia” It would have been both a good joke, and the only truthful, honest and accurate thing he has ever said.

  6. RESTART THE OIL PATCH AND COAL INDUSTRYS AND ATTACK RUSSIA AS WELL AS CHINA IRAN AND OTHER LESSER COMMIE NATIONS WHERE IT WILL PUT A STOP ON THEIR FINANCIAL ENGINES CNAT ATTACK WITH NO MONEY COMING IN !

  7. Unfortunately, people are believing the hype from Biden and the Democrats. That’s reflected in these polls. We need to worry about America.

    1. We DO have to worry about world events as they do affect us. Any stupid action (by either Putin or Biden) could/will affect the USSA.

    That is because Putin will continue to take over more Eastern Europe Countries if successful in Ukraine and China will invaide Taiwan
