The Official "Damned Trump" Thread: Phase II

[Rev. Rye]

More Americans now agree political violence may be necessary to right the country

Looking at the original poll for perspective:

• The poll says more Americans believe that political violence may be necessary to right the country (Dems are the biggest movers in This department), but still, a majority of the population overall (70%) still holds out hope for peace. The closest any groups come to a majority are Latinos, Gen Z, Millennials, Big City Dwellers, and Small Town dwellers, but their percentages only range from 39-42%.
  
• 77% overall consider political violence a major problem. 
  
• The nation is split pretty evenly over whether they’re more worried about violence against political leaders (The Republicans lead here) or violence against protesters (Dems lead here).
  
• The nation is split 60/40 over whether gun rights should be restricted or protected, with a majority skewing towards the former. (Take a wild guess which party skews in which direction.)
  

Other points from the same survey: 

• The majority of those polled, apart from Republicans, Trump supporters, White Evangelical Christians, and men who didn't graduate college (and even the last one is split 50/50), think America is moving in the wrong direction.
  
• Majority of all groups polled support mandatory vaccinations for public school students.
  
• Depressingly, a slim majority of those polled are in favour of Trump's National Guard in Cities plans. Majority Demographics: Registered Voters, Republicans, Midwesterners, Southerners, those who make less than $50k a year, non-college graduates, most age cohorts except for Gen Xers and even they're at 49%, White Evangelical Christians, Trumpists, City Dwellers, Small Town dwellers, Rural folk, and Suburban men. All races seem to support it. 
  
• Majority all around think that the government has gone too far in restricting the First Amendment. The majority think that, if any part of the federal government should be responsible, it should be the Supreme Court. 
  
• Every group except Republicans, WECs, rural folk, and Trump supporters, think Trump bungled the Epstein files. Even then, only Republicans and Trump supporters have majorities here.
  
• Every single demographic polled had a majority say "Release All of the Epstein files, with Victims' names removed)." The smallest majority, for some reason (I can only assume it was because they don't care that much about rich white people), was Black people, but even they were only at 63%.
