More Than Half Of Republicans Believe Voter Fraud Claims And Most Still Support Trump, Poll Finds

(April 5th 2021)

> Half of Republicans believe the Jan. 6 siege was “largely a non-violent protest” or done by left-wing activists “trying to make Trump look bad,” the poll found.

> Only three in 10 Republicans blame Trump for the attack.

> Most respondents overall—59%—blame Trump for the attack, and 80% of Democrats and 60% of Independents do not believe the Jan. 6 events were nonviolent or staged by the left.

> While 60% of Americans overall believe President Joe Biden fairly won the presidential election, 60% of Republicans instead believe Trump’s claims that Biden’s win was due to widespread voter fraud despite a lack of credible evidence.

>Trump continues to have a strong hold on the GOP: 80% of Republicans have a positive view of the former president, and six in 10 believe he should run for president again in 2024.

> The poll was conducted among 1,005 U.S. adults between March 30-31—days after Trump defended the Capitol rioters during a Fox News interview on March 25 and said they posed “zero threat” and “love our country.”

More than half is massively down from 90%.

And let’s remember repuglicans are only about 18% of Americans. So that means what? 10% of Americans?

Amazing when the GOP/Trump have just been discovered grifting over $100 million from their detonators.

We already know you can't fix stupid. And, like Covid, stupid doesn't one day just magically go away on its own.

I mourn for the America where dumb people were smart enough to be ashamed of being dumb. It seems Trump has made this a country where stupidity and willful ignorance are to be flaunted and celebrated.

People believe what they want to believe. The right wing got them with "your life doesn't suck because of you, it sucks because of the Liberals / uppity women / uppity Blacks / Muslims / Gays / Atheists / etc." and it just feels better to blame someone else for your own failures than take responsibility. That is also why they don't see anything wrong with Republicans throwing someone else under the bus when they get caught. Anything else (including deny, deny, deny ... "uh, I have to spend more time with my family!") than taking responsibility.
