Asked whether they believed Trump has or has not “committed serious federal crimes,” 54 percent of poll respondents replied that he had. But 19 percent of them confirmed they’d still vote for this criminal ex-president in 2024. Along the same vein, 13 percent of those who believe Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results “threatened American democracy” still plan to vote for him next year.

    I certainly don't mean to be disingenuous and that is a critique I take quite seriously. I assure you I post in earnest. I'm not saying there are parallels beyond the superficial or any sort of validity to Trump and his fascist sycophants. Just that from their perspective, they might see them as far more alike than you or I do.

      I get it, and I upvoted you. You're presenting their perspective of themselves. I felt compelled to go further and explain how that perspective fails.
