White House downplays CNN poll showing majority of Americans oppose more US aid for Ukraine | CNN Politics

The White House on Wednesday downplayed CNN polling showing most Americans oppose Congress providing additional funding to support Ukraine in its war with Russia ahead of a reported administration request for more aid.

Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.

Exact full quote from CNN:

“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

    I'll take that as a no. expecting liberals to refrain from dehumanizing people is just too much, I guess.

      Check my edit. It seems you are misunderstanding or assuming something others can't know about

          engage with people as people and acknowledge that they very frequently have needs, wants, and desires that cut against your myopic worldview.

              Sure! That kind of "rules for thee.." is not my type of way to live so we can leave this repertoire here
