MSNBC: Polls Across the Board Are Showing that Americans Are Losing Support for the War in Ukraine

KAY Josh so interesting ░░░░░░░░ hear that they let ░░░░░░░░ Russians know I was ░░░░░░░░ to Sergeant Beasley while ░░░░░░░░ re off just earlier ░░░░░░░░ was saying Listen this ░░░░░░░░ be the very worst ░░░░░░░░ for the Russians to ░░░░░░░░ anything in Kyiv because ░░░░░░░░ would be catastrophic for ░░░░░░░░ if by by mistake ░░░░░░░░ they were to hurt ░░░░░░░░ Biden in any way ░░░░░░░░ interesting that they let ░░░░░░░░ know And the rest ░░░░░░░░ those details are going ░░░░░░░░ be interesting too because ░░░░░░░░ a huge security headache ░░░░░░░░ to plan a meeting ░░░░░░░░ that Let s throw ░░░░░░░░ a little bit a ░░░░░░░░ more on that speech ░░░░░░░░ ve been hearing during ░░░░░░░░ course of this morning ░░░░░░░░ there is a need ░░░░░░░░ course to rally the ░░░░░░░░ behind this and the ░░░░░░░░ effort behind this but ░░░░░░░░ s also very much ░░░░░░░░ this moment of need ░░░░░░░░ rally Americans behind this ░░░░░░░░ effort At least Jordan ░░░░░░░░ pointing out earlier the ░░░░░░░░ showing that across the ░░░░░░░░ Americans are losing support ░░░░░░░░ the war in Ukraine ░░░░░░░░ how important is it ░░░░░░░░ that President Biden finds ░░░░░░░░ to say to the ░░░░░░░░ public that perhaps he ░░░░░░░░ t managed to find ░░░░░░░░ far to persuade them ░░░░░░░░ the case that you ░░░░░░░░ made that this is ░░░░░░░░ global effort and and ░░░░░░░░ Ukrainians are fighting on ░░░░░░░░ of the rest of ░░░░░░░░ world LEDERMAN Yeah Well ░░░░░░░░ the one hand the ░░░░░░░░ States feels fairly good ░░░░░░░░ the way that they ░░░░░░░░ been able to hold ░░░░░░░░ support for Ukraine for ░░░░░░░░ full year I mean ░░░░░░░░ some of the predictions ░░░░░░░░ that it would be ░░░░░░░░ a matter of months ░░░░░░░░ the war before Americans ░░░░░░░░ get tired of supporting ░░░░░░░░ and certainly Europeans who ░░░░░░░░ much more directly feeling ░░░░░░░░ impacts the ramifications of ░░░░░░░░ and the other steps ░░░░░░░░ to try to punish ░░░░░░░░ And we have seen ░░░░░░░░ know there was an ░░░░░░░░ NORC poll that just ░░░░░░░░ out that showed that ░░░░░░░░ level of support for ░░░░░░░░ security assistance to Ukraine ░░░░░░░░ dropped from about 60 ░░░░░░░░ last year to just ░░░░░░░░ percent And although some ░░░░░░░░ Republicans have started grumbling ░░░░░░░░ the need to no ░░░░░░░░ give a blank check ░░░░░░░░ Ukraine we re also ░░░░░░░░ to see Republican leadership ░░░░░░░░ to make the case ░░░░░░░░ that is a minority ░░░░░░░░ and does not broadly ░░░░░░░░ the party including Michael ░░░░░░░░ the Chairman of the ░░░░░░░░ Foreign Affairs Committee a ░░░░░░░░ over the weekend saying ░░░░░░░░ s time to increase ░░░░░░░░ So yes there are ░░░░░░░░ both in Europe and ░░░░░░░░ the West and in ░░░░░░░░ United States about perhaps ░░░░░░░░ folks who are less ░░░░░░░░ than they were before ░░░░░░░░ by and large the ░░░░░░░░ S government the Biden ░░░░░░░░ feels like they ve ░░░░░░░░ able to hold this ░░░░░░░░ to the point where ░░░░░░░░ re still able to ░░░░░░░░ the funds they need ░░░░░░░░ Congress they re still ░░░░░░░░ to get to Ukraine ░░░░░░░░ military assistance that they ░░░░░░░░ Ukraine needs at this ░░░░░░░░ in time President Biden ░░░░░░░░ speech tomorrow clearly a ░░░░░░░░ effort to make sure ░░░░░░░░ that support does not ░░░░░░░░ and that they re ░░░░░░░░ to continue to deliver ░░░░░░░░ kind of support and ░░░░░░░░ as this conflict drags ░░░░░░░░ into its second year ░░░░░░░░ KAY NBC s Josh ░░░░░░░░ thank you LEMIRE Thank ░░░░░░░░ Josh we re so ░░░░░░░░ We both thank you ░░░░░░░░ for your live reporting.”
