This week’s Economist/YouGov survey‘s question of “Do you think that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinian civilians?” finds 43 percent of overall respondents saying yes, to 29 percent no and 28 percent not sure… Which is probably far closer to 71 percent yes. Among Trump 2024 voters it’s 18 percent yes and 27 percent not sure to 55 percent no. Seems that’s pretty low for MAGA.
Another 14 percent of the fat fuck’s voters said he’s “too supportive of Israel” and another 16 percent said “not sure,” so there’s another not great sign for the Netanyahu regime.
Elsewhere in the survey a too-early generic congressional ballot question finds Dems leading Republicans 41 to 33 percent, but what’s more interesting/tantalizing is, again, the Trump 2024 voters’ responses: There’s only a small crossover offset where 5 percent of Trump 2024 voters who say they plan to vote Dem vs 2 percent of Harris 2024 voters. However 14 percent of Trump voters said they don’t know, more than twice the 6 percent of Harris 2024 voters. Plenty will come home as always over the next 15 months, yet that the GOP’s in a hole already is worth noting.
Check out Brian Beutler’s Substack for a very interesting and much better written version of Spartan’s obsession with the prevalence of “not sure” in Trump voters responses to tricky questions.
