Most GOP voters support pardoning Capitol rioters: CBS News poll

A new CBS News/YouGov survey of US adults finds 66 percent of Republican voters, and 38 percent of all respondents, supporting pardoning for the insurrectionists who attacked the US Capitol after fat former President Trump’s humiliating defeat to Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

The poll also did a little better of a job on the question of perceived culpability for the rioters than a recent one done by the Washington Post and the University of Maryland which gave respondents too much wiggle room on the “Fedsurrection” conspiracy shit by offering a “not sure” option on whether it was true or false that “FBI operatives organized and encouraged” the attack. CBS News/YouGov worded it more directly by asking whether or not respondents thought the rioters were “Typical of most Trump supporters” plus a third option of “People pretending to be Trump supporters,” for which 37 percent of GOP voters and 21 percent overall said they were “pretending.”

We would love to see numbers on how many MAGAmericans answered both yes on pardons and that the rioters were “People pretending to be Trump supporters.” The crosstabs on the poll don’t get into the overlap between questions, but we crunched the numbers quick and found that, if in absolutes there were 399 Republican respondents who said yes on pardons and 224 who think the insurrection was a false flag out of a sample of 608 GOP voters, then at least 2.1 percent of MAGAmericans think the FBI agents and Antifa fifth columnists who they believe attacked the Capitol three years ago should be pardoned. Probably significantly more. That is friggin impressive.
