Poll: As Ukraine tensions escalate, 62% of Traitors say Putin is a 'stronger leader' than Biden

[TheBlackAdder]

.

With at least 100,000 Russian troops massing on the border of Ukraine, more than 6 in 10 Republicans and GOP-leaning independents (62 percent) now say Russian President Vladimir Putin is “a stronger leader” than Joe Biden, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll.

Fewer than half as many Republicans (25 percent) decline to take sides, saying neither leader is stronger than the other.

And just 4 percent of Republicans say Biden is stronger than Putin.

1. They should go live in Russia.

Fuck them.

[Takket]

2. exactly! The "bUt MuH FrEeDuMb" crowd wouldn't last 5 seconds under Putin's thumb

[leftyladyfrommo]

12. They should go live in Russia for a month.

So many Russians live in awful apartments where everything is worn out and the utilities are all iffy.

[Magoo48]

34. Give them all free tickets. One way.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

24. +1

And these shitheads call US commies.

Putin was a KGB intelligence officer for years in the former USSR. And here the righties are bootlicking and fawning over him.

[SouthernDem4ever]

28. was my first thought too

let them all move to russia.

[ProfessorGAC]

3. 62% of 24%

Or, 15% of Americans are treason weasels.
I hate these polls that get views with the biggest number they can use.

[empedocles]

5. Yes

[blm]

4. White supremacist groups worship Putin.

[LaMouffette]

29. Of course they do, if they worship Hitler. And they do.

[moondust]

6. Rudy in 2014

Rudy Giuliani: Unlike Obama, Putin is “what you call a leader”

This was right at the time Russia "annexed" Crimea. I think this was the first time I heard an American praising strongman Putin the invader.

[ffr]

7. Get behind the president.

The SLP will always be wrong on issues like this. It's a losing battle and they know it. Their goal is damage limitation.

Biden comes across as a strong American leader and his polling numbers will soon reflect that Americans are getting behind him, as proud Americans tend to do.

Go BIDEN!!!

[ffr]

8. Legend

SLP - Sore Loser Party.

[Generic Brad]

9. What? Putin is a weak chest thumper

He poisons opponents because he can't win on a level playing field. His economy is in shambles. He's on the verge of losing everything.

It baffles me how people see a weak loser and imagine they are strong just because they fling poo like a male gorilla.

[Moebym]

16. Putin actually IS who they believe Biden to be.

They don't care about substance.

[EarlG]

10. The article says the number rises to 71% among Republicans who primarily watch Fox News

There's that 70% again...

11. I'm So Old, I Remember When The GOPQ Hated...

Anything Russian, and that included Putin. And I'm under 50.

Things have changed in a VERY short time thanks to Faux Nuz Propaganda Network and FucKKKer Carlson.

[Caliman73]

18. That had to do more with the idea of Communism

Before the fall of the Soviet Union, the primary party in power was the Communist Party, in fact, it was the only party. Once Communism in Russia fell and Putin came into power with his thinly disguised White Supremacy and his open hatred of "degenerates" (LGBTQ people), it was safe for Conservatives to start liking Russia. Only John McCain seemed to still harbor ill will toward the Russian Federation, but that could simply have been because McCain never met a war he didn't like.

Fox and the right wing media system are only cheerleaders and propagandists. The real reason is that they share a common hatred of "others" and think that democracy is not ideal for their purposes.

[AngryOldDem]

13. How many of these people are hardcore Fox News groupies?

Disgusting. These clowns have no clue as to what and who they’re admiring.


EDIT — I see EarlG answered my question. Just as I thought. Fox News is the modern-day Lord HawHaw and Tokyo Rose. It’s becoming clearer by the day what its purpose has been all along, and just how uneducated most are that they don’t see it for what it is — treasonous propaganda.

[Dirty Socialist]

14. Stronger doesn't mean better

STALIN was considered a “strong leader”

[maxsolomon]

30. Precisely.

"Stronger" just means "more willing to use violence".

[BlueWavePsych]

15. Fucking Traitors

[DENVERPOPS]

27. These Asswipes may get their way!!!!!!!!!

The only problem is that we all get screwed too.......

Maybe any one thinking Putin/Russia is great should be forcibly deported to Russia..........

[Moebym]

17. Well, that's terrifying.

They like their leaders despotic, and Biden ain't it.

[Caliman73]

20. Partly correct.

China and North Korea are pretty despotic as well and Conservatives don't like them very much.

It has to do with Putin and Russia becoming their idea of a White Ethno-state.

[Mr. Ected]

19. If we can't quell this fascist uprising, they'll all end up with their dream leader

Putin.

Deadlier than COVID.

[tman]

21. Republicans long for autocratic rule. That is 'strength' to them.

[Rebl2]

22. Please

You like him so much, go there and live. Oh by the way, if you do, USA should never let you back in if you decide it isn’t for you after all.

[Aussie105]

23. So what is Rupert up to?

The man behind Fox "News" pulling the strings that control the teleprompter that controls Tucker's mouth and facial expressions.

Some sort of Fox-Pravda deal going on?

Fox appeals to those who feel America has not given them the deal in life they feel is their self declared birth right, and imagine Russia will give them a better deal.

Rupert-Fox-Tucker feeds their delusions, plays them like a fiddle.
It's sad.
And a bad reflection on the education system that there are so many of them.

[budkin]

25. Obviously

We're on two separate teams now.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

26. Sounds like a push poll. Better question: putin or tfg, which is stronger?

Kiss-ass. Or better yet, which is the stronger leader Putin or Hitler?

[Poiuyt]

31. Who is a stronger leader: Putin or Stalin?

The question is irrelevant to good government.

[live love laugh]

32. W. T. F. ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

[Roy Rolling]

33. Which is which?

Is Putin a strong leader or are they pitifully weak followers of charlatans?

[gulliver]

35. "Stronger" is another one of these incompetent/slime poll click-bait words

Of course Putin appears "stronger" than Biden if your definition of strong is "ability to be a dictator." The pollsters are dirtballs for using the term "stronger." It just begs Republicans to dis Biden, generating (to the pollsters' delight), notice and attention. Use a question like, "Who would you prefer lead the United States, Putin or Biden?" (If we're gonna do polls for fun and clicks.)
