Imma just keep liking and quoting your posts so I can see you sig again and again. This time I noticed her booty in the mirror.
This exact meme was posted during the Mueller bullshit. We see how that turned out. Don’t get your hopes up
Anyone believing polls in this age of manipulation is a damn fool.
Most Americans support Trump pardon if he’s convicted, sentenced to jail in docs case: poll
A slim majority of Americans surveyed in a poll released Friday would support pardoning former President Trump if he is convicted and sentenced to jail over allegations that he mishandled classified documents.

You don’t need a poll just travel outside of any inner city and there lies your answer
He’s loved by 75 million idiots
They just gave some Navy Officer like 7 years for taking documents that weren’t even close to the classification of the ones Trump took and nowhere near as many. Trump had boxes of shit. This officer had a folder or some shit. Trump technical should get death or life in prison at the least for what he’s done. Any of us would
There you have it
Don't think that number is that high anymore think it way lower but, the GOP primaries will tell it all if he makes it there.
If one factors in people being afraid of civil unrest then it does make sense that a slim majority want him pardoned even if that slim majority is made up of people with different motivationsMost Americans support Trump pardon if he’s convicted, sentenced to jail in docs case: poll

Good morning. We’re covering Trump’s polling problems, the Supreme Court and a race around the world. |

The 50 percent threshold in a poll can sometimes be distracting. When more than half of people give a certain answer, it often becomes the dominant message to emerge from the poll question. It is the answer that appears to have won. Yet the most important information may nonetheless be lurking elsewhere. |
Consider the surveys over the past week that have asked Americans their opinions about the federal charges against Donald Trump. Here are the results of an ABC News/Ipsos survey, which were similar to other poll results: |
|
On first glance, a central message seems to be strong and continuing support for Trump — because a majority of Republicans said that the charges were not serious. Most Republicans also said that he should not have been charged with a crime and that the indictment was politically motivated. |
Media headlines have emphasized these pro-Trump majorities. At a dinner with Democratic donors this week, Jill Biden said that she had just read one of these headlines and found it “a little shocking.” Republican voters, Biden said, “don’t care about the indictment.” |
To be clear, Trump’s enduring support among Republicans is an important story. If it continues, he is likely to become the party’s nominee. That support is a sign that political polarization in the U.S. has become so intense that most Republican voters appear to care more about loyalty to Trump than about the possibility that he damaged national security by allowing sensitive intelligence to circulate. |
But the existence of an enduring pro-Trump Republican majority is not the only important conclusion from the recent polls. A couple of subtler patterns in the data are more worrisome for Trump. |
First, look at the relative sizes of the minority opinions in each category in that chart above: There are considerably more Republicans who consider the charges serious than Democrats or independents who do not think they’re serious. The indictment divides Republicans more than it divides Democrats. |
A basic lesson of politics is that you win when the public debate is focused on issues that divide your opponent’s supporters and unite yours. Affirmative action, for example, is a problematic topic for the Democratic Party, even though most of its voters support the policy, because there are more Democrats who oppose it than Republicans who support it. (The Times recently explained how this dynamic led to a landslide defeat for an affirmative-action referendum in California.) For similar reasons, undocumented immigration creates political trouble for Democrats. |
Problematic subjects for the Republican Party, on the other hand, include health care access, the minimum wage, same-sex marriage and, especially, abortion bans. The recent polls show that Trump’s behavior also falls into this category. Republicans who think he should have been charged with a crime outnumber Democrats who think he should not have been. “Trump splits the party,” says Jonathan Bernstein, a political scientist who writes for Bloomberg Opinion. “No, not evenly, but even an 80/20 split is a real split.” |
Another problematic sign for Trump is that the number of Republicans bothered by his legal problems seems to be growing. So is the number among independents. More voters are bothered by the case against him — on charges of taking classified material and trying to conceal that he did — than by the earlier New York State charges related to hush money for a sexual encounter: |
|
The 2024 election is still almost a year and a half away, and the prosecutors trying to hold Trump accountable will need to keep making their case not only in courtrooms but also to the public if they hope to convince most Americans of the seriousness of the charges. But those prosecutors do not need to convince most Republicans in order to succeed. |
Just look at what happened in the 2022 midterm elections. A small slice of Republican voters was unhappy enough with Trump’s anti-democratic behavior (and the Supreme Court’s abortion ruling) to defect from the party, helping Democrats keep control of the Senate. The last two presidential elections offer a similar case study: Trump lost the presidency in 2020 partly because 11 percent of typical Republican voters supported Joe Biden, up from 9 percent who voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, according to Catalist, a data firm. |
Fifty percent isn’t the only number that matters when you’re looking at a subgroups in poll. Small shifts within each party can determine election outcomes. |
We gotta define "they" very carefully and precisely here
Thanks, I missed that until you pointed it out.
I read an opinion piece from WaPo online, and the comments were about 70% against and 30% for pardoning him. VERY small sample size (about 700 comments at the time). But that was the reasoning for pardoning him.
80+30 doesn't equal a hundred. they are saying 80 percent of republicans that polled want him to be pardoned. There is no breakdown of who was polled which would give you a valid point if correct.
Guess I need to turn sigs on
