A survey described by University of Chicago political scientist Robert Pape and reported by outlets like Newsmax and Yahoo News indicates that roughly 44% of self-identified Democrats expressed some level of agreement with the idea that the use of force or violence is justified to prevent Donald Trump from achieving certain political goals or to keep him from power.



Survey Context & Findings
    • The Source: The data stems from ongoing research on political violence and public sentiment directed by Robert Pape through the Chicago Project on Security and Threats (CPOST).
    • The Figures: The survey results noted that a notable minority of respondents overall—and approximately 44% of self-identified Democrats in that specific subset—voiced a conditional openness to force or extreme measures regarding opposition to Trump.
    • Broader Trends: Pape and other researchers point out that acceptance or rationalization of political violence has shown concerning shifts across various partisan groups during periods of heightened political polarization, with segments on multiple sides of the ideological spectrum expressing readiness to justify force under specific perceived political threats

I wasn’t there, you?

You are supporting the Democrats/Socialist/Communists now.

You call that supporting democracy?

Good grief.

Violence isn’t the answer.

Besides, we owe Trump for doing us the favor of exposing our soft White underbelly: hardcore MAGA.

We could have gone on for ages not realizing we have so many folks with discernment issues among us severe enough that they can’t discern that a fraudulent reality TV game show host isn’t POTUS material. Now that we know, maybe we can address it. Special education earlier in life, perhaps? (Sorry, couldn’t resist). 😁

Violence appears to be the answer for 44% of Democrats…Socialism, and Communism, too.

I went to CPOST. Tracked down what appears to be the article. They require an account be generated to read it. Then they send you a link. That means they are going to be sending me other things as well. I’m not registering with a site just to read one article. I get enough spam now.
