are only about 20 percent of the people who actually voted for him? I think the others are ready to let it be. Not sure I just think that 20 percent are really loud and proud about how they feel, crazy nuts who make it appear there are more of them like this than there really is.

(8,445 posts)The majority of voters, on both sides, cast their votes, heard the results, and then went on about their daily lives. What we're seeing are the true MAGAts thinking that if they make enough noise they can change reality.
They can't.

It's just not. One of the guests last week on Deadline White House put the figure at 30%, but that's even much higher than that poll that showed 78% (?) believed Joe won, a number in the teens "weren't sure" and a single digit percent believe Trump won.

I have no proof of this, but all I read gives me a feeling that this group is in the 3 to 4 million range. The GOP would do well to alienate them the way the Democrats used civil rights to scrape them off. All they have to do is congratulate Joe.

(8,050 posts)United States, and the republican politicians and the white nationalist infiltrated police forces are willing to let that happen.
The republican party is NOT PATRIOTIC.
The republican party hates more than one half of the people in the United States.
The republican party members don't give a damn about "law and order" unless it's against democrats in general, and POC in particular.
The republican party is NOT, and probably never has been, in the majority.
The armed extremists are running this country, with the complete complicity of the republicans in all elected offices.
