Given all the Russiagate hysteria that's been going on for years now, I'm actually kind of surprised this poll shows a plurality of Americans believed that Russia was more of a competitor than an enemy as recently as the beginning of this year.
Then again, maybe not. When viewed among partisan lines, I'd assume that the large overall recent uptick in "Enemy" viewpoint is largely coming from Republicans.
Edit: Actually, as seen here, that's not true. A plurality of Republicans and Dems viewed Russia as more of a competitor than an enemy in January. The fact that both have shifted their perception in basically the exact same way since then shows that, once again, there is fundamentally little to no difference between a liberal and a conservative, especially on foreign policy.
no difference between a liberal and a conservative
Liberals are conservatives, its just that most of their voters haven't figured that out yet.

They would call El Salvador a threat to national security if the media went off on Bukele as much as they do about Putin. Never met a more paranoid populace in my life. Suburbanites almost fantasize about being robbed or shot by "urbans" to justify using the gun they keep hidden in their closets.
or fantasize about it so much that they have a gun in arms reach everywhere in their house
