For reference, that's 31.5% of all House Republicans. Another way to see it is that 68.5% of House Republicans, which are generally the most extreme breed of Republican, are supportive of US military aid to Ukraine. I'm pleasantly surprised to find support for Ukraine remaining that high.
And in early 2015, what percentage of Republicans openly supported Trump? How many of them voted to impeach him? How many of them voted to impeach the second time?
Make no mistake - this is extremely alarming and you should wake up. I legitimately can't believe I even have to type this comment out. We are so fucked.
There should be zero US dollars spent on Ukraine and Israel as long as homelessness and healthcare are still a problem in the US. The fact that I even have to remind people of this problem is alarming.
Lol, you have to be gullible to think the conservative politicians actually cares about balancing the budget. If we cut off Ukraine they'll just go back to their old excuses for screwing over poor people.
