Most Voters Aren’t Aware of Trump’s ‘Dictator’ Threats

Greg Sargent: “Some new polling from a top Democratic pollster finds mixed news for Team Biden on this front: Large swaths of voters appear to have little awareness of some of Trump’s clearest statements of hostility to democracy and intent to impose authoritarian rule in a second term, from his vow to be ‘dictator for one day’ to his vague threat to enact ‘termination’ of provisions in the Constitution.”

“That’s maddening for obvious reasons. But it also presents the Biden campaign with an opportunity. If voters are unaware of all these statements, there’s plenty of time to make voters aware of them—and the polling also finds that these statements, when aired to respondents, shift them against Trump.”
