Only 15% of Trump Voters See Biden as Legitimate


December 2, 2020 at 7:27 am EST By Taegan Goddard

A new YouGov poll finds just 15% of Donald Trump voters view Joe Biden as being legitimately elected. The rest, 85%, claim he did not legitimately win.

Because it seems they are forever in line for that.

3. This has to go in the "who gives a fuck" bin. I think that poll actually says 85% are cracked.

Still, using the YouGov poll figure of 15%, and figuring the voters for Dumpy are 47% of the electorate, that means that 40% of the voting public believe Biden is illegitimate. Wouldn't you think by now after watching Rudy and Dumpy since the election, that they would see there is no credibility with these jackasses? Hopefully, this number will go down over time.

None of my friends did either. I didn’t remove my Hillary bumper sticker. Didn’t do us any good. The guy was president. Biden will be president.

... that thought of Тяцмр as legit was less than 15% in 2016. I certainly never considered him legit.

Of course, we were right.

10. There has been only one legitimately elected Republican president

since 1988. That was when GWB won his second term. That is questionable since he wasn't
legitimately elected his first term.

didn't care that Trump sold out our foreign policy to Ukraine for his own personal benefit, courted Nazis and locked children in cages.

It's the 40% rule. 40% of people are hopeless idiots, completely intellectually and morally bankrupt. I don't expect anything else from them.
