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.

    Some of ‘em did burn cars and buildings, I assume they would’ve fallen in line for storming Capitol Hill too.

    Never underestimate those who will get violent because their preferred candidate didn’t win.

          And coming dangerously close to our elected officials while chanting they wanted to hang people with the gallows they built outside. And remember people died there. And there’s tons of evidence trump led it, why do you think he’s getting charged for it.

              right. sure no one was in the building.

              ya know other than all the people actually inside the building. like that one idiot who was shot because she refused to comply with police orders as she was trying to break into where members of congress were at.

                    There were not, I don’t remember that woman’s name that claimed she was crying inside as she could hear them… turns out she was across the road. They evacuated everyone way before.

                    You’re just behaving like good little Nazis, remember “blame the Jews”? Now it’s “blame the maga” lol

      An angry person smashing the window of a Starbucks is not a fucking threat to the Republic, dude.
