There is minimal patriotic cohesion between the two major factions here and the opinions on response would be wide and varied.


I don’t disagree with the minimal cohesion part but I compare our internal fighting to brothers fighting. The siblings are beating the shite out of each other but the second someone outside throws a shot at one of the brothers, they both join up abs turn against the outsider immediately.

It happened after 9/11. It was a short period where we were united about one thing, revenge. It turned to shite quickly but the one thing people forget is when the American people are ready to get shite done, shite gets done.

First of all, Ukraine’s leadership is not as clean as the media portends them to be.
FYI “portend” isn’t a flowery way to say “pretend.”

That's a pretty good analogy, but you need to throw in an abusive drunk of a husband/father and a useless submissive wife/mother to represent our government.

We aren’t talking about them attacking US soil.

There would be a huge divide in how we should respond, the loudest likely being the “retaliate group”, which would be the moronic choice.

Also, I do not see the USA coming together like we did after 9/11. We aren’t even remotely near that level of civility anymore.

At this point where our country is now, I doubt that seriously anymore. The division now is much greater than was then.

You’re right it’s not on US soil but I hope that if Putin launches a nuke, Dems and Repubs could pull their heads out of their collective assholes long enough to address the actual threat that a world leader with nukes has gone insane and address it with a unified front.

let's skip ahead a bit: you DO realize that if a nuclear, biological and/or chemical device is detonated in Ukraine ... doesn't AUTOMATICALLY mean that Putin/Russia did it.

Like 9/11? Where the dust hadn't even settled yet and Democrats were blaming Bush or America for bringing this on ourselves? That kind of patriotic unity? One half of our political landscape has taken over every facet of our society and culture indoctrinating our children from kindergarten on up that America is evil/sexist/racist/greedy/etc; yet, at a time of crisis is just going to reflexively jump to the defense of the red, white and blue? Color me skeptical.

I would bet that a good percentage of the purple-haired liberal arts major crowd would be actively and openly supporting our enemy (especially if it were the ChiComs).
