67% of Republicans think Trump won...

..so what? A recent poll showed 40% identifying with the Repug party, so the other 60% are Dems and Indies. 67% of 40% is 27% so 73% of the people don't believe the Big Lie. We know some of the 67% don't really believe Trump won; they just want to believe it or are afraid to admit they don't believe it. So the true number of believers might be 20%.

But 27% or 20%, it's still a significant minority...and they want to be in charge because we are taking the country to a Socialistic, Communistic, Totalitarian government.

Hitler's propaganda minister quote: "Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty."

They SAY that. Maybe 30% of them believe it, or less. The rest are posturing for Party power. . nt Bernardo de La Paz Dec 2021 #1

It's their favorite hobby... Don't call them if you want faithful results.

Haven't you pollsters learned that yet?

A lot of them are eating horse paste and magic dirt to fight the virus.

Not a lot of brains there.

We happen to share a country with them so it's actually a pretty big deal, unfortunately

There is nothing you can do to change their minds either.

I wish our side had more guns.

Our hope is a lot of them die off from the virus.

These people are beyond reaching.

They are in a cult.

REALLY BIG deal...if we manage to win the elections, they won't likely just fold and go home.

These Republicans are cult members.

Our side is damn nice.

Trump should never have got into the White House.

I think the damage is done.

Our side will need to fight back.

Garland is not helping.
