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.

    Let's keep it 100% here. The awareness of the typical american, of matters of politics and government organisation, is abysmal. Poll after poll show americans being hazy on who their representative is, who their senators are, and basically ignorant about the bill of rights.

    Remember when they tried citizens on the civics test they use for naturalisation? And the citizens were baffled, as often as not?
