A new Quinnipiac poll finds that Americans would support a ban on Russian oil even if it meant higher gasoline prices in the United States, 71% to 22%.

As for the steps the Biden administration has taken so far to punish Russia for invading Ukraine, 56% say they are not tough enough, while 30% say they are about right, and 3% say they are too tough.

Said pollster Tim Malloy: “Americans are ready to put a chokehold on Russia’s key financial lifeblood, oil, no matter what the consequences are at the pump.”

1. But America will forget that if gas $5 a gallon in

November.

2. I agree but...

If you don't prioritize democracy over gas prices then what's the point of winning elections anyway?

3. If Putin falls before then Democrats will win. nt

4. No they won't. Biden will have been a war president. People, 71%, will

have gotten a lot out of being a part of something bigger than themselves again in supporting Ukrainians in their plight. They will not return to sh**show Trump.

5. Obama pulled us out of the Great Recession and

Trump was elected, short memories. If Putin falls Biden will get credit.
