    National (US) Poll - January 18, 2021 - 59% Say Trump Should Not Be Al | Quinnipiac University Connecticut

    Separately, voters say 59 - 39 percent that President Trump is responsible for inciting violence against the government of the United States.
    Just over half of voters say, 51 - 43 percent, that President Trump's actions following the 2020 presidential election warrant criminal charges.

    How we know sharp decline in Trump approval was real shift in opinion | Pew Research Center

    Donald Trump’s final job approval rating as president was 29% in a Pew Research Center poll released last week, the lowest of his presidency and a 9 percentage point drop since August, when 38% of U.S. adults approved. The decrease stood out because even some of the momentous events of the past four years did not affect Trump’s approval rating very much.

    [​IMG]
    So it was difficult to predict how the events of Jan. 6 – when rioters rampaged through the U.S. Capitol – might affect the public’s view of Trump in the Center’s survey, which was conducted in the days afterward. The 9-point fall in approval was the largest change between two Pew Research Center polls since Trump took office.

    Most of the decline occurred among Republicans, the majority of whom were strongly supportive of Trump. How can we know that the change reflected a real shift in public opinion and was not an artifact of the poll itself, such as the possibility that some Republicans were less willing to be surveyed because of the events of Jan. 6?

    Anyone who believes Trump incited the violence that occurred on January 6th doesn't know what incite a riot means.

    Not only that - but some of this planning was done well in advance.

    It was. By Fascist Trump supporters. Trump's been inciting violence all along. His statement at the DC rally was just lighting the fuse.

    I wouldn’t hold my breath for any rational answer; if any answer at all, it’ll be opinion rather than specific facts!!!!

    You do realize that just because they support Trump - DOES NOT mean that Trump endorses what they did. In fact, Trump came out and denounced their criminal actions.

    The double standard is astoundingly stark. Trump consistently calls for law and order, peaceful protesting, and consistently condems violation of those standards.

    The Dems on the other hand encourage riotous clashes with police, then applaud it as "mostly peaceful protesting," even when it includes looting, arson, vandalism, even murder, and wonder why there isn't more, then promise there will be more.

    However, as soon as something occurs the Dems think they can blame on Trump supporters, it is all of a sudden horrific and directly Trump's fault.

    Hypocrisy is both the persona of the Dems, and their fiber and core. It is blatantly obvious to anyone who bothers to look.

    Yes, It was Maxine Walters who did that
    Maxine Waters encourages supporters to harass Trump administration officials

    Remember - we don't have to like the individual -
    but it doesn't hurt us to show respect -by using the
    proper names of public individuals.

    Remember - showing respect speaks more of the giver.
