On The poll about the FBI instigating the Jan 6 riot -- even IF that was true, do Trump supporters not have agency? Couldn't they have simply said, "nope, not doing that!"? Are they THAT gullible and easily manipulated? I do not think they would give BLM protestors the same consideration of having been instigated.

The "party of personal responsibility" is officially dead and has been replaced by the party of perpetual victimhood.

This poll result makes no sense. How can J6 have been operationalized by FBI agents AND jailed, patriotic martyrs?

You expect them to be logical. Trump was able to convince them he's smart AND Christian conservative.

Logical consistency ain’t their strong suit.

It’s NOT true...it wasn’t Antifa, not the FBI, it wasn’t democrats or grandmas for grandchildren! IT WAS Trump Maga-fascists. Period.

I agree 100%. My point was that even if it was, they had a choice. They chose the wrong one.

I read yesterday that Ray Epps is "going through some things" because he was targeted by the MAGA mob. The MAGA crazies are convinced he's an FBI agent.

Reality has hit him, good and hard. He says he fell into the Fox News vortex and it's ruined his life. I wish he was out there saying that on Fox instead of just suing them.

One thing that helps my optimism is MAGA’s propensity to eat their own. We see it at every level.

They learned from their leader that there is only one number one and everyone else is number two.

In a very crude way, I think Trump is #2.
