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.

Yeah he's a libertarian with reactionary politics. Someone, I forgot who, told me a libertarian is a Republican who likes weed and/or buttsex, which got a laugh if nothing else... I don't think his reactionary politics are even all that principled; they're a natural outgrowth of his all-encompassing "FYGM" attitude, with little or no deep thought put into them.
I am "that girl" your mother warned you about...

Yeah, you'll notice his outrage only really crops up when conservative types are being oppressed and he stays silent when any liberal type is oppressed. Disingenuous in the extreme, but at least his narcissism is currently pro-freedom.

It's supposed to be the other way around, amirite? It's normal human nature to identify with and care more about certain people than others. I certainly consider it overrated as a character flaw.
