A majority of Republicans and independents would stay and fight were Russia to invade the United States while a majority of Democrats say they would flee, according to a new Quinnipiac poll. The poll comes amid Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine. Overall, 55 percent of respondents “say they would stay and fight, while 38 percent say they would leave the country,” according to Quinnipiac. Seven percent say they don’t know or say it’s not applicable. Sixty-eight percent of Republicans would stay and fight, while 25 percent say they wouldn’t and 6 percent say they don’t know or say it’s not

Flee where? Canada? They wouldn't have us up there. Mexico? "If one road led to hell and the other to Mexico, I would be indifferent which to take." (N.B. Forrest)

Of course the Democrats would not fight for the USA. They would probably man welcome stations and have gift baskets for the Russian invaders so that their preferred form of government, Communism, can be ushered in faster and without the hinderance of pesky elections. Also, we all know Democrats hate guns and are afraid of gun violence (unless it is big cities and minorities are killing each other).

They've been taught all their lives that America is bad, evil and bigotted. Who, believing that agit-prop, would stand and defend. Currently they're too busy trying to destroy America, and the rest of us, to care.

With all of the crime and violence in cities like New York, San Francisco, and LA, the Russian invaders would not stand a chance. The gangs, street criminals, and homeless would take out the Russian invaders trying to take over their turf.

And why is this news? That is why I have very little fear or concern in case of a civil war. It won't last very long.

Where do they believe they would run to.
If the Russians invaded the US and were successful there wouldn't be anywhere in te world they could run.
Would I stay and fight? hell yes. Every man woman and child should fight.
The way things are going when Biden gets though there won't be much left to fight for, but that isn't settled yet either.

Once upon a time, there was a common threat agreed upon by the US populus...World Communism. From at least 1945 to 1990 Democrats and Republicans agreed to fight its spread, while building a military to repulse any attack, from land forces to missiles and nukes. It would "contain" communism in places like Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and along the "Iron Curtain" that divided Europe. Proxy wars were fought in various places to that end, including Central America.
The threat of world communism began to diminish with Vietnam when the US government lied to the public, both Democrat and Republican administrations. A "credibility gap" formed, as it has for COVIDS today, except the divide split differently. And when the end came in Vietnam it was every bit the debacle Kabul was.
What's at the heart of our troubles now is the foreign policy that has no aim, so it emulates the Cold War, Russia bad, China not as bad and "friendly", NATO protects Europe. With that perspective the US cannot deal effectively with contemporary international affairs. It is tied to a feckless, emasculated NATO and a costly, perpetual defense of Europe. Same in Korea and Japan. We fought to restore monarchs in Kuwait and surrendered to religious fanatics in Afghanistan, while destroying despotic regimes in Iraq and Libya that contained the craziness until we "rescued" the people in each.
"The Leader of the Free World" monicker is a self-serving tool. Like some kid procliming himself World Champ in the backyard anymore. It gives us license that we misuse and abuse under the guise of duty. And the boobs cheer on.
Ukraine is becoming a mirror clearly reflecting all this. Do we dare look at the reflection honestly?

That’s typical. Screw the joint up and the people who are “ruled” over, and when it gets out of control, run.
My question. Are they taking any “infrastructure “ payoffs with them. Where are they getting the money to flee. Only consolation is if they are fleeing in their electric vehicle, they won’t get far. Maybe 300 miles!

Can’t we start rumor that Russian forces have invaded from Canada and Mexico?. “Russian tanks have stormed across the Rio Grande, pushing thousands of Illegal immigrants aside as they enter Texas. Gov. Abbott forced to flee Austin as rockets hit Capitol Building.” Story would panic tens of thousands of Democrats just in NYC to run to their financial advisers before heading to JFK Int’l for flights out of US. Rumor would greatly improve chances of mostly spineless Repubs winning In November.

I’ll speculate that a majority of democrats would send people from their own present age down to Toddler to fight for them. That would leave the enlightened free to do the heavy thinking.

I'm sure many are in the political realm.
I would hope the GOP uses such information in blue areas who may not realize yet that today's democrat party is nothing like the party of just 10-20 years ago.

There are many reasons people go through "fight or flight" emotions ... not the least of which is moral weakness. Many are truly pacifists by birth or feel they are too sick/weak to resist or would just get in the way. Kinda leave it to the experts, they feel.
However, it's too bad there wasn't more color to the question, like: "If healthy and capable ... would you flee or stay and fight for what is yours?"
The fact that so high a percentage are willing to bail shows they have no real bond holding us and feel no obligation to stick together through hard times. But they want to happily change the country to their liking instead of accepting it for what it is. Therefore, I have no problem resisting their ill conceived methods --- by any means necessary!
And for anyone doubting the forever value of the 2nd Amendment --- even ownership of an AR-15 --- look no further than The Ukraine.

If Russia ever invades the US it’s going to be the Democrats who let it happen. I can understand why they would flee. Here’s hoping Moscow permanently adopts them. They’ll fit in nicely once we level it.

After the US/Russia conflict is over, those who fled and did not fight, should be denied entry into the US. Why fight for cowards?

Snowflakes every one! You know what the penalty used to be for desertion? We saw how weak minded the liberals were during Covid. Liberalism is a mental disorder, so let’s make the blue cities mental facilities and lock them in.

Does there have to be an actual shooting war for the majority of democrats to flee the country, or will they accept a simple declaration? Asking for a friend.

The last 5 years have really opened my eyes as to the extent of the rampant disinformation and overt propaganda that our MSM cravenly spews forth in order to sow fear, dissention, and racial disharmony. HOWEVER, if this Quinnipiac poll is actually true, and Democrats would flee this country if Russia invaded, well, OMG! I SEE PARATROOPERS DROPPING IN ALL OVER CALIFORNIA/NEWYORK/OREGON/WASHINGTON DC!! IT'S ON THE TV SO IT MUST BE TRUE!! RUUNNNNNNN!!!!!
Just one little white lie wouldn't hurt, would it? ;-)

If the Russians invaded the US, it would end up being a nuclear war. We do not have matching borders nor were part of the former USSR, so to invade us, it would be a whole different type of war. A ground war isn't likely.
But, for the Dems that think they could run or it wouldn't be so bad under the Communists, has anyone of them noticed that there aren't very many people of color or women in power in Communist Countries? Wonder what the Russians would do to them?
