    You do realize that the poll tends to say the people who are doing the cheating in politics today pretty well match the polls people who endorse cheating.
    And I'm definitely in the minority- I give a damn, and I'm working hard to improve the nation for everybody. And I don't cheat trying to do it.

    Can you post some of these cases of proven fraud by democrats? Because I just listed 4 states and several others where republicans are openly cheating and getting caught.

    I understand the feeling. However, I think you have to look at the full picture, and the long run. Anything that continues to keep the nation divided poses a serious impediment to recovery, and I think that is getting more urgent everyday. If a new president sets out to take revenge, that reunification can't happen. I think he has to clean up the mess, but not turn around and do the same thing his predecessors have done- or he becomes just like them. He does need to get the system adjusted to prevent the same kind of abuse in the future, however.

    Have you looked at the project I'm part of, that was announced here a couple of weeks ago when we went public? My group, a non-profit corporation is dedicated to returning honor and order to congress. We weighed this situation many times, and we of course know there are many 'wrong-doers' in Congress. We also know the environment there makes that the defacto rules. If we can empower the enforcement of existing rules- congress can be cleaned up and made more effective than its ever been. We decided that we had to set aside our personal dislikes, and let it be a fresh start for everyone. We figure that many hate the chaos and practices of current politics and would be pleased to see it improve- and those who don't would soon run afoul of the rules, allowing an enforcement system to remove them. If you haven't visited the site, take a look It's at https://honorablecongress.org/

    So while they have power they attack,
    Then when we get power we unify,
    Then they get power and attack.
    And when we get power we unify.

    Is that what you're after?
    Do you imagine that you are going to convert hardened leftists into becoming proponents of unification by your good example?

    IF you are able to be honest with yourself, you know Joe Biden is virtually in the same class Al Capone. They were never able to convict him, because he owned so many judges and officials.
    The evidence is way beyond damning. but Joes's people are the ones who would have the power to prosecute...
    You know that's true, and you know we are seeing "lawfare", or the law being degraded to a political weapon.
    Not interest in the denial-blame game. You KNOW this is true.

    Go look at the website I posted. In that is the means to put a stop to the abuses, and remove the abusers- without resorting to tar and feather for all your political opposition.
    We HAVE the rules to stop this crap. We DONT HAVE the tools- and rules that aren't enforced are cosmetic illusions.

    The plan we have developed is totally non-partisan, and the power is in the hands of citizens- not politicians. That's why it can work. https://honorablecongress.org/

    I assume you mean the scope and details of the poll. I don't know if that is available yet, or published by itself or not.

    Some added info- the first article is probably the most comprehensive, but still not directly from Rasmussen. They often do comprehensive polls with multiple questions, so they can use the same base to address several different subjects.

    Rules are enforced by people, and the rules aren't stopping the abuses.

    And it's moot point anyway, Trump's made it clear that he's not going to do to them, what they've done to him.

    One problem is that our system is built on the assumption that the folks in positions of power will be people of integrity, so there is no real teeth for abuses. I want to see legislation that imposes jail terms and stripped pensions for prosecutors and judges that abuse their power for political gain.

    I want to see FBI and CIA folks who rig elections and try to illegitimately drive elected presidents from office, stripped of their pension and thrown in jail.

    I want to see elected officials who take $Millions in bribes, stripped of their asset, stripped of their pensions and relocated to prison.

    What is really TERRIFYING is not the results of a poll, but the FACT that a sitting President tried to overturn the result of a free, fair, and secure election and tried to do so with the power of his office, violence from his supporters and the vocal support of his lawyers and sitting congressmen .

    Imagine if Orange had succeeded in his traitorous , banana republic , fascist power grab ?

    You realize calling him an illegitimate president is the same as saying that he's not a true president and that he didn't win fair and square.

    Oh never mind, you're going to sit here and pretend that that's different different different....

    You are terrified that these people say they'd be okay with stealing the election . . . when one of the guys running ACTUALLY tried to cheat in order to win, and you guys still support him anyway. No one who supports Trump gives a single flying **** about this poll. They only care because they think that cheating is only okay when Trump does it.

    I realize you would prefer CNN or some totally leftist snowblower, but Rasmussen is considered the top polling company by honorable people. Of course, those who embrace the bottom will always try to turn the list over.

    This is why the founders even some that didn't accept the notion of Biblical Truth would only serve a Christian people. Once it reached the point that results matter more than anything else disintegration will be the ultimate result.

    I do have some exceptions in my beliefs. While I hope we don't see the hate-sqabbles and pissing matches attacks continue- actions that have unjustly caused harm and loss fall in another category.
    Bending the laws to use as political weapons could and should have recourse to recover the damages and clear the names.

    Sure he did. That’s what he has done for his whole miserable life: cheated.

    Cheated for money, cheated for power.
    He’s a con man. That’s all.

    :roflol::roflol::roflol:

    That's really the only appropriate response.

    Honorable People? That would be hilarious if you were doing a parody, sadly, I don't think you are.

    If you didn't win the popular vote then you are illegitimate, fair and square are irrelevant.

    where did you get the number 1% of Americans earn over $150k a year??

    I did a quick google search and below is what I found

    Only 15.5% of Americans earn between $100,000 and $149,999 per year. Although, this does make up the largest percentage of Americans who do make over $100k, which only 8.3% earning between $150,000-$199,999, and 10.3% earning over $200k.

    Reality disagrees, but I envy the fantasy world you live in. Here in reality, Trump attempted to use an illegal fake elector scheme to steal the election.
