Democrats claim there's about half of the Republicans who don't align with Russia. It's MAGA at about 39% who refuse to say anything for fear of Trump saying mean things about them. They are all cowards. Every last one of the Republicans are cowards.
Polling from 20241112-20241117 indicates republicans and right-leaning were divided:
10% [US not providing enough support to Ukraine]
19% [about-right amount of support]
42% [too much]
28% [not sure]
Yeah, they do, but they won't say anything. Greed and fear is stopping them. It's no secret that Republican Senators and Congresspeople are scared of Trump's base and being targeted by the crazies on the extreme right. Trump has tried to incite violence against them many times.
I think they're all lame. They could easily cross the aisle, or form a new party, but they're also greedy and hoping joining in on the corruption will make them rich.
Not really. They are all too afraid to speak up. They might think differently but lack the courage to speak or act. Republicoward party. Trumpers have a lock on all the mechanisms so Republican=MAGA
Lets pray that Europe and especially my country Germany go very big in defence and support Ukraine even more. It has to be done now!!! 🙏 Republicans are MAGA because they let it happen 🤮
Even Rubio has. But they are absolutely terrified of Trump's media capture. One wrong word, and they are going to become an enemy off the state in every show, podcast, blog. Musk will twitt, how this person is actually a pedophile etc.
There is effectively no difference between MAGA Trump loyalists and craven Republicans. You don’t get into the gerontocracy by being principled anymore.
I’m a believer that humanity tends to divide right and left with a 10% middle lot that can swing depending on circumstance. The magats that voted for drump haven’t had enough time to become disillusioned. I note China is biding its time.
I believe they do, however I do not believe that it matters. The US has betrayed the bravest people on the planet. I am so sorry to the Ukrainian People and the world. The shame, guilt, and embarrassment that the US president and VP have smeared on America shall be permanent. #SlavaUkraini
No...it is all about the money...
It is all about the power.
They don't care about you...
They don't fight for you..
If you have money to give to their wallet... they listen..
Otherwise...go fuck your selv...

Many of them have to buy a new car or to pay the mortgage or planning vacations with the new friend..
For this reaason they will stay silent, sniffing something in case of personal stress
Some reps and senators do I think but they refuse to go against Trump which makes them complicit in the abandonment of 🇺🇦 and collusion with the enemy. They are all traitors until they take action to redeem themselves.
I believe that republicans go along with Trump because they are afraid he will destroy their party if they don’t. The only thing MAGA brings to the party is anger and negative energy. They have no plan beyond destruction
Just to be clear, there are moderate conservatives that aren't MAGA, and independents. Neither have a political home. Polarization gives only extremes.
As long as they are supporting everything Trump says or does without questioning their opinions don’t matter. They are accomplices to a coup and should be treated as such.
My interactions with them says this. Most of the gop elite is on Zelensky's side but most gop voters are on Putin's side and the politicians have to adjust to their voters to be reelected. The gop became a working class party similar to the communist ones. I was an exception who thought it was bad.
So far the US is not mass murdering but the philosophy and complete lack of moral values makes the bulk Gop voters very similar to the bulk of the Russians.
I think respublicans want to help their country out of debt, to decrease governmental spending and boost economy and for that they have agreed to be silent. But it is likely that majority will not support Russia. Question is - how long they will be silent. Most likely already now there is a struggle
Depends. The ones in office are mostly too cowardly to speak out. The overwhelming majority non-maga center-right American support Ukraine and have from the beginning. Do not confuse conservatives with MAGA suck ups.
MAGA is a totally different thing from the typical left-right divide.
I think most of them understand that Putin and Russia is a true enemy to USA and Ukraine. Unfortunately they lack spine and integrity, they stay silent.
I think there are still a few old-school Republicans left who disagree with MAGA on Ukraine, but most don't have the courage to say so. But most *Americans* differ with Maga on Ukraine. We still support you, & are deeply ashamed of our govt. #SlavaUkraini
Yes, but the greed for power and money has a big influence on it.
I believe that the ethical and moral decay of Republicans and maga supporters is equally pronounced.
Indeed, r/conservative has been overjoyed and gleefully smug about the pathetic display from yesterday. I suspect there are plenty russian bots and edgelord kids in the mix, but the vast majority of real people in that sub are magats. A bunch of simpletons
From Canada but I think vast majority of Republicans do not want to become USSR and support Ukraine. Trump is pushing his luck abandoning Ukraine. Problem is Maga (and some right wing Canada) propaganda comes from Russia.
Republicans don’t have opinions…they only follow what their dear leaders says and whatever it is at that exact moment is ex cathedra in every case. It’s a mind boggling exercise in politics/religiosity/mongloidism and contortionism.
No, not at all. If you see a Republican, you're looking at a MAGA. If you see a MAGA, you're looking at a Republican. That's not an exaggeration; no hyperbole. That's really the way it is. They fundamentally do not believe in liberal Democracy.

Republican representatives appear to have been red-pilled or threatened with well-funded challenge at next primary.
Not sure of proportions at present.
People are likely to focus on how changes affect them personally, and we are seeing this in town-halls.

That is the fate of all followers, they are part of it.
In other words:
Expressing dissent is mandatory in a democracy.
It is all about the power.
They don't care about you...
They don't fight for you..
If you have money to give to their wallet... they listen..
Otherwise...go fuck your selv...

Posts on X change nothing.
Only action matters.

The rest is really clever people.
It doesn’t matter what they think. Fear makes the decisions for them.
Maniac like JD Vance are working according to the political theory “Overton Window”. Its crazy but real
It’s now Amerika and the Gulf Of Russia
MAGA is a totally different thing from the typical left-right divide.
I believe that the ethical and moral decay of Republicans and maga supporters is equally pronounced.
Now Trump is expansionist (Canada, Greenland) and Trumpers are expansionist.
There are no Republicans remaining who are not Trumpers.
What trump is doing isn't popular
Freedom needs courage.
The enemy (MAGA, Republicans) of the USA is the enemy of Ukraine
Russia = MAGA = Republicans
Given the information, I can draw a conclusion:
All Republicans are enemies of national security, sovereignty, and the very existence of the United States
Russia = Republicans
Republicans MAGA are believers in a new religion of faith in the god 🇷🇺
The enemy (MAGA, Republicans) of the USA is the enemy of Ukraine
Russia = MAGA = Republicans
