The Impact of the Russia-Ukraine Conflict on Americans

In this chapter, the speakers discuss the current state of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and how it impacts Americans. They mention that while many Americans express support for Ukraine, the conflict doesn't have a direct impact on their daily lives. However, they caution that if there were disruptions in everyday life, such as power outages or financial issues, Americans may start to feel the personal cost of the conflict. The speakers also touch on the possibility of political discord and how the Russians may exploit it to hinder the United States' response to the conflict.
