According to a poll conducted by two academic authors and published by The Washington Post, 52 percent of Republicans said they would back a postponement of the next election if Trump called for it.

If Trump and congressional Republicans proposed postponing the election to ensure only eligible citizens could vote, support from Republicans rises to 56 percent.

Pollsters found 47 percent of Republicans think Trump won the popular vote.

    Democrat: she won the popular vote

    Republican: no, there was lots of fraud, she may have won an incorrect count but that isn't legit

    Democrat: our vote count proves otherwise; she won!

    Republican: Let's check for fraud in that election. Also, in the future let's check ID for voting, just like every other country (even India and Mexico) does.

    Democrat: Nooo!!! We don't need to check for fraud because she won the popular vote; our count says so. Anyway, checking the count is racist. Checking ID is racist, except for guns.

    Conservatives love to claim liberals are disingenuous and pushing their own agenda, but failing to address the systemic issues with racism that are still very current makes conservatives hypocritical projecting idiots.

    Good job!!

      I'll note here that "systemic issues with racism" is highly subjective. Why are your systemic issues with racism more important than my systemic issues with racism?
