Nearly half (45%) of @GOP voters say the Jan. 6 insurrectionists "had a point" when they violently attacked the United States Capitol.

Almost 8-in-10 Republicans (78%) are still convinced Joe Biden stole the 2020 election.

Over half (51%) of @GOP voters say Congress didn't do enough to overturn the 2020 election and keep Donald Trump in power.

This cancer of disinformation is not going away. If anything, ever larger chunks of the GOP are now radicalizing in response.

Replying to @themaxburns
This data suggest the @GOP, one of two major national parties, is at *least* half made up of people who:

- Support violent efforts to overturn elections
- Believe the current president is illegally in power
- Would *still support* Trump's forced return to power

@themaxburns
Antidemocratic rhetoric streaming from OAN and Fox News and the @GOP itself has achieved its goal: a large plurality of self-ID'd Republicans would cheer on a public attempt by Congress/outside insurrectionists to violently remove Joe Biden.

That's a national crisis.

5. Oh. That Max Burns. (A search came up with a dozen of them) Still don't need his opinion...

Just a link to the Slate article would do.

4. Because no one requires them to PROVE IT.

Media never asks these people to share the evidence or proof they saw that convinced them of their position.

Ask them if they would bet their house that Trump is being truthful when he claims the election was stolen.

6. Yes. The point is they are all anti-democracy, anti-American, and PsOS.
