The Republicans have given the Democrats a gift. And Dems should use it in preparing for the 2022 mid-term elections.
The gift consists of: 45 Republican Senators voting not to proceed to trial on Trump's impeachment; 147 House Republicans, the same day as the insurrection, voting to overturn President Biden's election; 199 voting to support QAnon-professing Marjorie Taylor Greene; and Trump's impeachment defense including the assertion there was election fraud.
A PBS Newshour/Marist poll found that nearly nine in ten Americans (88 percent) opposed the actions of the Trump supporters who stormed and ransacked the Capitol. This went across party lines: 96 percent Democrats, 86 percent Independents, 80 percent Republicans. The same poll found that 58 percent of Americans blame Trump for the violent insurrection on January 6.
