Should the U.S. Go to War with Russia?
Michael dives into one of the most provocative poll questions he's ever posed: Should Ukraine join NATO — and should the United States invoke Article 5 and go to war with Russia? What prompted such a bold ask? A pattern of consistently hawkish responses from his audience on past Ukraine-related poll questions. With 79% recently supporting U.S. troop deployment to enforce peace in Ukraine, Michael wonders: Are we ready to go all the way? He breaks down historical poll results, examines the implications of invoking Article 5, and challenges his audience to consider the real-life consequences of their answers. Are we serious about war — or just keyboard warriors? Listen here, and leave a rating and review of this podcast.
