"SNIP......

A new University of Massachusetts Amherst Poll finds 71% of Republicans — and one-third of the nation — continue to believe that Joe Biden’s victory in 2020 was illegitimate.

......SNIP"

1. So, Idiocracy WAS a documentary n/t

[Doodley]

2. Where is the messaging pushback?

[BeyondGeography]

10. Nowhere, for all intents and purposes

Which some of us find very frustrating.

[FakeNoose]

3. Gosh I remember saying the same thing about Chump for 4 years

[Downtown Hound]

18. One big difference is Trump lost the popular vote

Maybe he won the electoral college legitimately, but but you make an argument that it's an inherently undemocratic system.

And as far at the electoral vote goes, it's been proven that the Russians hacked the voting rosters. Maybe they didn't change the election, but there's a lot more to be suspicious about in Trump's victory than there is in Biden's.

Trump's victory also defied the polls. Biden's did not. And no matter what you believe, the indisputable fact is Trump became president despite never having won a majority of American's support. Whether his electoral vote was legitimate or not, no one can say he won a truly democratic election. He won based on an archaic, anti-democratic, system that any functioning democracy should have gotten rid of a long time ago.

4. 71% of Republicans -- and one-third of the nation --

are delusional.

Maybe that should be the story. I’m not sure what this has to do with Joe Biden.

[Hassler]

5. IOW, a big majority of Republicans are easily manipulated morons

[texasfiddler]

6. Shouldn't that be 71% or one-third of the nation? Not to be nitpicky.

I am just trying to make sure I understand how many people I will have to fight against during the next civil war.

[applegrove]

7. If the 71% are like those right wing nutters in Canada's latest

election they will insist on red meat being thrown to them every time the GOP nominee tacks to the center in a federal election. That is what people who follow populist want... to be constantly fed.

[gratuitous]

8. They just can't say why 74 is more than 81

I'd engage with these delusional nitwits, but they're living in a world of fantasy and agreeable lies.

[FreepFryer]

9. Big majority of Republicans lie. (Nt)

[luv2fly]

11. I don't believe this at all

It's just one more way for them to think they "own" us. They might say they think this way, but they know better, they're just fuckin' with people.

[Submariner]

12. Tell we just got even for the Scalia Coup of 12 December 2000

Snowflakes

[Progressive Jones]

13. I'll never give a fuck what "those people" think. nt

[andym]

14. A BIG problem when people most prone to follow a leader are gaslighted by him. NT.

[KPN]

15. So what! They are dead wrong -- all of them. 1/3rd should

not make us meek in pursuing accountability for criminal acts. They are not concerned about unity in any way, manner or shape when it isn’t 100% consistent with their views, beliefs or preferences. Their goal has nothing to do with a just and fair society with equal rights for all. Their goal is dominance. We should cut them no slack as long as that is the case. It would be fool-hardy to do so.

19. Once stated by a great American:

“With reasonable men, I will reason;

with humane men I will plead;

but to tyrants I will give no quarter,
nor waste arguments where they will certainly be lost.”

....William Lloyd Garrison

[Achilleaze]

16. And not one shred of evidence to back Republican fantasy

Not one stinking shred. But they don't give a damn about truth, reality, or America.

They have their mouths wide open to swallow all the swill puked forth from their unholy and decidedly crooked and evil Republican Loser-in-Chief.

And then they whine, whine, whine. Yuck. So unmanly. So unwomanly.

What a sorry excuse for citizens they are.

[Atticus]

17. The last Gallup poll I saw stated that the percentage of Republicans in the nation

had dropped to 25%. 71% of that 21% amounts to just over 19% of all Americans.

The additional people polled who kick the percentage up to the "third" mentioned are wishy-washy "independents" who are influenced by headlines like this one because that's all they read---headlines.

[MyOwnPeace]

20. "because that's all they read---headlines."

Oh, SO true!

[ProfessorGAC]

29. 24%!

I posted a nearly identical reply.
Pew & Gallup both had polls around the end the 2nd quarter that showed 24% R, 31% D, 42% I. (The missing 3% was a bunch of "others".). Both companies got nearly identical results.

[Demovictory9]

21. Trump has so damaged the country and doesnt care

[lame54]

22. And Home Alone is one the biggest money making movies ever...

Some things just can't be explained

[Downtown Hound]

23. Home Alone was a charming, funny, family-oriented

entertaining film that left an indelible mark on my childhood as well as the childhoods of many others who grew up when it was released.


Donald Trump..eh, not so much. Except for the indelible mark part, and it's a rather unpleasant mark at that.

[lame54]

25. Wound is a more appropriate word

[Stargleamer]

24. What part of 81 million 74 million don't they understand??

do they really believe Biden got over 7 million illegal votes? This boggles the mind.

[Xoan]

27. yada, yada, yada ...

I DON'T GIVE A SHIT.

[ProfessorGAC]

28. Where'd They Get 1/3rd of Americans

Pew & Gallup both had polls showing self-declared Rs were 24% of adults.
71% of 24% is not 1/3rd of Americans.
Also, I play golf with about 8 guys who reflexively vote R. NONE of them think TFG won!! NONE!
So, I know a group of republicans TOTALLY different from the rest of the country? I don't think so.
This poll is nonsense.
