No One Likes the January 6th Rioters

Dan Pfeiffer: “From a purely political perspective, Trump’s decision to support the rioters is insane. A January 2024 CBS News poll found that nearly 80% of voters disapprove of the actions of the people who entered the Capitol on January 6th. Even a majority of self-identified MAGA Republicans disapprove.”

“Think about that for a second. Donald Trump is saluting while being serenaded by people who even a majority of his base dislikes…”

“Trump’s rhetoric is dangerous for democracy, but also provides a big opportunity for Democrats, especially with the voters Trump needs to win in November. A Data for Progress poll found that 57% of Independents are less likely to vote for a candidate who supports the January 6th attack.”
