Republican poll shows that americans know who is to blame for the Ucraine war
Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) took a subtle jab at President Donald Trump on Thursday by sharing a recent Reuters poll that asked, “What Americans think of Trump’s Ukraine rhetoric."
Bacon, a retired brigadier general in the Air Force, shared the poll with the caption, “Overwhelmingly, Americans know who is at fault. Moral clarity is important.”
The survey of 1,174 U.S. adults conducted from March 3rd to the 4th found that 70% of all adults disagreed that Ukraine is “more to blame for starting the war.” Split by party, 62% of Republicans disagreed, while 81% of Democrats disagreed. Trump made headlines last month for both declaring Ukraine started the war and calling President Volodymr Zelensky a dictator – despite the fact that Russia’s Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022 and celebrated 25 years in power in 2024.
