70%


I am going to start my post-Biden inauguration piece by saying that I am in the seventy percent – solidly in the seventy percent that think that Biden should not be in the Oval Office.

Right upfront, I am a Republican . . . or at least I have been a Republican.

I have reviewed a number of different polls concerning mainly what Republicans feel about the past November election, and the remarkable thing to me is how that seventy percent figure continues to show up.

I realize that most of you are probably tired of hearing about the election fraud, but I just read about a report from Peter Navarro in which he explains what many ordinary Americans already perceive. Peter Navarro, Ph.D., authored this report entitled “Yes, President Trump Won,” which was the latest installment in his 3-volume series demonstrating that the election was stolen.

His three-part Report carefully describes the many irregularities and statistical improbabilities that were observed in the election. In the six disputed states studied by Dr. Navarro, the number of illegal or questionable ballots far exceeded the number needed to change the outcome and deliver the state’s electors to Trump.  

In Georgia, for example, there were 51 times as many questionable ballots as the number of votes that separated Trump and Biden. In Wisconsin, the ratio was 26 times; in Arizona, 24 times; in Pennsylvania, 12 times; in Nevada, 6 times; and finally in Michigan, there were 3 times as many improper votes as the reported margin between the presidential candidates.

This Navarro Report certainly seems to add additional credence that something was rotten in Democratic Denmark on 11/3/20.

Since President Trump spoke to the massive crowd on January 6, several major polling organizations have surveyed the American people, and the polls all found that an overwhelming majority of Republican voters agree that Trump actually won the election.

Now here comes that repeating 70% number.

First up was the well-respected Quinnipiac poll, in which 73 percent of Republican voters answered Yes to the Question: “Do you believe there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election?”  

Next was a CNN/SSRN poll, which reported that 71 percent of Republicans told its pollsters: “No, Biden did not legitimately win enough votes to win the presidency” 

An even stronger result was found by the ABC News Washington Post poll, in which 65% of Republicans said they believe there is solid evidence of fraud in the 2020 election, while only 25 percent of Republicans disagreed.

As to the phony “insurrection” on Capitol Hill, the Quinnipiac poll confirmed that 80% of Republicans do not hold Trump responsible, while 71 percent disagree with those who characterize the incident as a “coup attempt.” 

The CNN/SSRN poll found similar results: 72 percent of Republicans said Trump was not responsible for those who “stormed” the Capitol.

The Washington Post’s poll shows 66 percent of Republicans believing that Trump acted responsibly on January 6, and 78 percent say Trump bears little or no responsibility for the disorderly conduct of a few.

I think the next few weeks will be crunch time for Republicans. If the Republicans in the Senate go ahead with this inane impeachment boondoggle, one could easily see 70% of the country’s Republicans becoming ex-Republicans.
