A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll finds 74% of Americans say the Russian invasion of Ukraine is not justified and 76% express an unfavorable opinion of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“Yet in a striking sign of how deep partisanship continues to run in the U.S., just 3% of 2020 Donald Trump voters are willing to say President Biden is ‘doing a better job leading his country’ than Putin. Nearly half (47%) of Trump voters say Putin is doing a better job than Biden, even as Russia’s economy threatens to collapse under the weight of crippling global sanctions. A slightly smaller share of Trump voters (45%) say ‘neither’ man is doing a better job than the other.”
