Trump shares poll showing voters associate potential second term with "revenge"

Source: Reuters

By Gram Slattery

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican presidential contender Donald Trump posted a poll on Truth Social on Tuesday, highlighting that the word voters most associate with a potential second term under his command is "revenge."

With campaigning ramping up ahead of the first Republican nomination contest, the post followed a separate Truth Social message on Christmas Day, in which the former president called on his political opponents to "rot in hell."

The fact Trump re-posted the poll, presented in the form of a word cloud with "revenge" placed centrally in bright red capital letters, suggests his self-described "retribution" agenda is very much on his mind as the United States heads into an election year.

The poll was conducted by British pollster J.L. Partners.

Harassed by bullies at an early age?
Ex girlfriend let you down?
Parents too strict?
Co-workers not giving you the respect you deserve?

Name on the back of an envelope, and send to Trump.

The DoR (day of revenge) is coming!
Just vote him in, go on, you know you are entitled to revenge!

/Most of my posts are tainted with sarcasm. This is one of them.

The pollsters who are lying and those who voted for Trump the first time. They regretted their first vote and they haven't changed their minds.

MAGAts are illogical, unreasonable, and unthinking. They are sheep waiting for their political shepherds to give them orders.

Revenge will play big for a majority of them. It’s wrong and immoral but here we are.

His followers have been systematically manipulated to discard their reason and to instead rely only on rage, hatred and other psychologically conditioned gut-level responses. They are Pavlov's dog at this point.

The problem is all those fucking fascist lovers think it’s the message they want to hear. Trump wants attention and this gets it. Fuck those pieces of shit

A majority of voters will reject Trump's retribution agenda, the problem is will a majority of states do the same.

I can't imagine living my entire life only for hate.

And what's more disappointing is that a good portion of the country is just the same. They live to hate. He is their champion in hate. That's the only reason he has their loyalty.

It's hard for me to believe that a candidate running on hate and destruction has so much support.

Trump is more concerned with inflicting punishment on the people his followers hate than ensuring his constituency can afford groceries. And they love him for it.
