The share of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents who believe that President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win was not legitimate has ticked back up, according to a new CNN poll fielded throughout July. All told, 69% of Republicans and Republican-leaners say Biden’s win was not legitimate, up from 63% earlier this year and through last fall, even as there is no evidence of election fraud that would have altered the outcome of the contest.
An angry person smashing the window of a Starbucks is not a fucking threat to the Republic, dude.
People burning down cars very well could be, if some lunatic spent some time brainwashing ‘em.
“If. Could be.”
Didn’t happen though…
…again, I never said it did. Do you have poor reading comprehension?
You keep imagining a reality that never happened and then criticizing that universe. I guess I’m puzzled as to what you’re trying to achieve but to make it sound like everyone is as bad as each other. It’s just not the case.
I’m not sure how you got that out of what I said, but cool ig
If wishes were fishes I could feed the world, buddy. There’s a reason that left wing agitation is a threat to windows and right wing agitation is a threat to the Republic. It’s the difference between an insurrectionist traitor and an angry child.
Yes, that reason is that Republicans let a lunatic come into power, and he was able to consolidate his insane voterbase and stir ‘em up into a frenzy.
And conservatives are unified enough to rally behind a strongman leader. Leftists and liberals just aren’t. People on the left are motivated by different ideas and ideologies. This isn’t Imperial Russia where a small, motivated group of leftists can mount a military coup. Taking power from the left means coalition building here, and if someone goes fucking crazy in power that coalition disintegrates.
That’s another thing, yeah; the American Right, especially lately, is beyond cultish.
