Poll: Even 70% Of Independents Think Trump Indictment Is Politically Motivated

How are Americans feeling about former President Donald Trump's indictment?

Well, now that it has actually happened, we have yet to see new data answering that question. However, a Quinnipiac University poll that was released Wednesday showed that the vast majority of both Republicans and independents believed that a potential indictment from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is “politically motivated.”

 

“Republicans (93 – 5 percent) and independents (70 – 26 percent) think the Manhattan District Attorney’s case is mainly motivated by politics, while Democrats (66 – 29 percent) think the case is mainly motivated by the law,” Quinnipiac announced in a press release.

Per Quinnipiac, that means that 62% of all Americans “think the Manhattan District Attorney’s case involving former President Donald Trump is mainly motivated by politics, while 32 percent think the case is mainly motivated by the law.”

Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of Democrats believe that Bragg’s investigation is due to concern about upholding the rule of law.

Curiously, that same poll finds that a majority of both Democrats and independents believe that if Trump is charged, it should disqualify him from seeking higher office.

Many have speculated that a Trump indictment would coalesce the Republican Party primary voters around Trump, in support of a perceived political prisoner. There have yet to be any definitive polls proving that, though in wake of the actual announcement Thursday popular pundits such as Glenn Beck of The Blaze indicated the move made them more supportive of Trump.

“Donald Trump is not even a person anymore,” Beck said on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “He is a symbol of the average everyday guy that keeps getting screwed, every single time.”

Beck did not go as far as to say that Trump would win the 2024 election, but he did offer a theory as to how that could happen.

“I don’t know if Donald Trump is the winner or not,” Beck said. “But I will tell you this: You’re not going to stop a hundred million people. This country is in shambles, and there’s going to be a hundred million people that will walk on broken glass and through fire to vote for someone other than this corrupt banana republic administration.”

It’s quite obvious what’s going on here….whether you like Trump or not this whole thing should give us pause. Hell look at the poor dispshits that were setup in the whole Governor Whitmer kidnapping plot bullshit…it’s not right.

Orange man is making it into one.  He was offered to be arraigned quietly via zoom and declined.  Oh well - karma can be a bitch :thumbsup:

Insert Toolkit's "echo chamber" comments, now :whistle:

And yes, it's 100% a dog & pony show and anyone with a functioning brain can see that.  Which explains why people like Toolkit think this is a legit situation & he's all giddy about it :news:

Trump was spied on during the campaign, the FBI/DOJ used a fake dossier paid by his rival to continue to try and get him thru his Presidency, he was impeached twice (and acquitted), home raided by the FBI for taking documents when others who weren't POTUS had the same yet no raid and now indicted over something past the SoL's and perfectly legal to do.   They are afraid as hell of him.   Must be doing something right.

I'm not a huge trump fan,  but you are spot on with he must be doing something right if the establishment is trying so hard to get rid of him.

The charges are felonies. No one is above the law. End of story.

Trumped up charges.  Pun intended.  Those are not felonies.  The whole game is to get him labeled as a "convicted felon."  It can't possibly be any more transparent...

What's wrong with the other 30%?  Are they related to AC and can't think?  Either way, let's hope at least one sticks and he can't run for president so we can be finally rid of the libtard leaders we have now.

You are as dumb as the magatards if you believe that.  Akin to saying Bernie Sanders are the Dems....only worse.  Far from but there are some idiots in the party that think that would be a good idea.
