Millions of Americans believe force justified to restore Trump to White House, University of Chicago study finds

More than 18 months after the rioting at the U.S. Capitol by a pro-Trump mob, an estimated 13 million U.S. adults, or 5% of the adult population, agree that force would be justified to restore former President Donald Trump to the White House and an estimated 15 million Americans believe force would be justified to prevent Trump from being prosecuted , should he be indicted for mishandling classified documents, according to a new study from the University of Chicago.

"We have not just a political threat to our democracy, we have a violent threat to our democracy," Dr. Robert Pape, the director of the University of Chicago's Chicago Project on Security and Threats (CPOST) told "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan on Sept. 18. "Today, there are millions of individuals who don't just think the election was stolen in 2020; they support violence to restore Donald Trump to the White House."

The 13 million estimated in the early September survey represents a reduction since June 2021, when an estimated 23 million Americans had insurrectionist sentiment. CPOST researchers extrapolated data from over 3,000 nationally representative survey participants who responded to surveys in June and September of 2021, and April and September of 2022, to reach their conclusions in the study

Time is running out to restore Trump to the presidency, two years to the next election what are these 13 million waiting on?!!

No doubt the "force" would be done by someone other than the 15 million in favor of it.

"The research team found that the willingness to use violence to put Trump back in the White House was largely driven by unfounded and racist fears about a Great Replacement of White people by immigrants According to the study, 61% of those who favored insurrection were fueled by fears of a Great Replacement"

Not surprising given that Tucker is the head pimp at Fox and the "Great Replacement Theory" is one of his go to sells

Beginning to view those that swallow all the immigrant replacement bullshit are really people that basically have failed at life and they look around and see that they consequently may soon fall to a lower social level, immigrants are just the scapegoats to express their frustration and bitterness

You might want to read the actual survey. By left wing University of Chicago. The survey consisted of 3,124 people. Talk about extrapolation and bullshit. Even then, quite a few who agree are democrats. You partisan hack.

What PATHETIC reporting.

Clearly, CBS is DESPERATE to raise ratings by trying to scare people...like they/the MSM did during the height of Covid.

5%?
That is fucking NOTHING!!!

Oh...and notice, for panic effect, they converted it to some theoretical, population number.
Because they know '5%' does not sound scary enough.

Apparently, in 2018, 4% of Americans think/thought the Earth is flat.

I could not give a fucking shit what 5% of people in a poll think about anything.

And it is INCREDIBLY irresponsible of CBS to deliberately hype up these numbers ...clearly just to raise their ratings/ad revenue.
