Missouri town to hold rally to support Jan. 6 defendants

so 20% of GOP say they will support Trump MORE if he gets convicted of a Crime ??!!???

Nearly a quarter of Republicans said Trump getting convicted would make them more likely to support the embattled former president​


  • A new poll from Politico/Ipsos details how American adults said they feel about former President Donald Trump's ongoing legal cases.
  • According to the poll, most American adults said they want his sensitive documents trial to happen before the GOP primaries begin.
  • Additionally, nearly a quarter of Republican adults said a conviction in the sensitive documents case would make them more likely to support him.
Nearly a quarter of Republican adults said they'd be more likely to support former President Donald Trump if he gets convicted in his federal sensitive documents case, according to a new poll from Politico/Ipsos.

According to the poll, which was conducted between June 27-28 and has a margin of error of 3.8 percentage points, 24% of Republican adults said a conviction would strengthen their desire to vote for Trump in November 2024.



At the same time, however, just a few percentage points more of Republican adults — 28% — said the opposite: that a conviction in the sensitive documents case would make them less likely to support the embattled former president.

If Trump, who was indicted in June by a federal grand jury and charged with 37 felony counts, is ultimately convicted, the poll shows that Republicans are split as to what his punishment should be.

According to the poll, if the former president gets convicted during the trial, only 16% of Republican adults said he should face imprisonment. Additionally, if convicted, 39% — or more than one in three GOP adults — said Trump shouldn't be punished at all.

And while Trump previously called the case a "witch hunt," an audio recording obtained and aired by CNN that's a part of the investigation against the former president, reveals him showing off a secret Pentagon documents related to a potential attack on Iran.

"This was done by the military and given to me," Trump can be heard saying in the recording. "See as president I could have declassified it. Now I can't, you know, but this is still a secret."

A trial date in the sensitive documents case is set for mid-August, however, the date is tentative at best as both sides will likely need more time to prepare, which may not sit well with most.

According to the Politico/Ipsos poll, the majority of American adults want Trump's sensitive documents trial to take place before election and even before the GOP primaries begin in early 2024.
An online poll of 1005 people from Politico taken over the course of two days? Seems very thorough and scientific. I guess that settles it then. (y)

Took abnormal psychology in college , and still unprepared to comprehend how people can support this charlatan. Understand even less how people can believe and promote all of the lies, and seem willing to destroy the entire country to cover up his own stupidity. But he does play the victim more effectively than anyone I’ve ever seen. Kudos I guess.

Were 1005 people polled online? Yes
Was the poll commissioned by Politico? Yes
Was the poll taken over the course of two days? Yes
Is Ipsos one of the more respected firms on the planet? Who the heck knows

Why wasn't the headline "80% of republican voters won't support Trump if he is convicted of a crime"?

Even you are better than this. Post less.

because it wasn't 80%... only 28% said they would NOT support Trump if he was convicted.

At this point it is very clear you didn't read or at least didn't want to comprehend any of the info in the article other than what you could find you thought could make it appear invalid...which it is not

I just have to laugh. You are about a week removed from trying to use a cherry picked group of ~350 to argue for your side, but are now suspicious of a group of a 1000 because you dont like the outcome?

Its pretty rich.

More thorough and scientific than this.....
Interesting story about Rogersville, MO. A town about the size of Wewoka.

What I will never understand is why so many people desperately want to downplay the summer 2020 riots. Odd that the vast majority of Americans look at Jan 6th and call it horrible, disgusting, and embarrassing for our county.

But a decently large amount of Americans cannot or will not say the same for the riots.

Mountains out of mole hills or mole hills out of mountains your politics apparently determines the outcome, however in the real world truth usually wins the day. Or not, just read Trump lied 30753 times in four years in office, that’s nearly 21 times a day. Seems low to me, but then this is only from areas with cameras or microphones.
 
And more thorough and scientific than this…“The number of people that refuse to call J6 horrible, disgusting, criminal and embarrassing for our country is much larger than those that downplay the summer 2020 riots”

I do appreciate that you are consistent with your hypocrisy.

Ray Epps is an Arizona man who was a devoted Trump supporter who voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020 and went to DC for the J6 Stop the Steal Rally in support of Trump. Somehow he became the target of a conspiracy theory in which Fox News host Tucker Carlson said he was a covert Govt Agent working to instigate and start the events at J6

Arizona man who joined Jan. 6 ‘Stop the Steal’ rally sues Fox News for defamation​



NEW YORK (Reuters) - An Arizona man filed a defamation lawsuit against Fox News on Wednesday, alleging the network spread a conspiracy theory that he played a key role in the violent storming of the U.S. Capitol by supporters of former U.S. President Donald Trump.

Ray Epps, who voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020, claimed in his lawsuit that Fox knowingly and recklessly spread claims that he was an undercover FBI agent who instigated the Jan. 6, 2021 attack as part of a government plot to discredit Trump.

This years-long campaign of disinformation, Epps claims in his suit, "destroyed" the lives of Epps and his wife.

Epps was interviewed by the Congressional select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack and the committee put out a statement saying he was not an FBI agent, according to the lawsuit.

Fox did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The lawsuit in Delaware state court comes as voting technology company Smartmatic is suing Fox for defamation, and several months after the company settled defamation claims brought by Dominion Voting Systems for $787.5 million.

The company acknowledged the court found some Fox claims about Dominion were false.

In June, Fox News' parent company Fox Corp settled for $12 million a lawsuit by former Fox News producer Abby Grossberg, who had claimed gender discrimination and accused the network's lawyers of pressuring her to make misleading statements in the Dominion case.

Epps is seeking compensatory and punitive damages in amounts to be determined at trial.

Epps traveled to Washington for the Jan. 6 "Stop the Steal" rally that preceded the storming of the Capitol, but he never entered the building and said in his lawsuit he tried to calm the crowd.

Epps claims that nearly a year after the attack, then-Fox host Tucker Carlson seized upon a conspiracy theory that the FBI was responsible for the insurrection and that Epps was part of that effort. Carlson told viewers in January 2022 that Epps was a "central figure" in the attack and "helped stage-manage the insurrection," according to the lawsuit.

Fox fired Carlson in April.

Epps is suing the network for defamation and false light, alleging that the statements about him on Fox "would lead the public to believe that Epps was a federal agent working to provoke or otherwise incite others to attack the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021."
