In other news, 1 in 10 Republicans are Democrats.
I would be happy with 1 in 10.
1 in 10 Republicans are blithering idiots.
The Ministry of Propaganda cannot be trusted.
I trust the enemedia.
To lie.
It’s much higher than that in the US Senate.
Alexander, Corker, Flake, Graham, Hatch, Heller, Hoeven, Murkowsky, McCain, Rubio, Burr, Tillis, Portman, McConnell, Thune, Cornyn, Cochran, Isackson, Blunt, Johnson, Gardner, Toomey, Capito, Fischer, Collins, Wicker are all Cheap Labor Express Republicans.
1 in 10 Republicans are not Republicans.
Michael Medved?
1 in 10 also believe in the tooth fairy.
1 in 10 “republicans” in polls is really a democrat messing with the pollsters.
I do not doubt this statistic. I would conjecture that that this 10% is primarily 70 to 95 year olds life-long Republicans who still believe the fantasy that the MSM puts forth the authoritative and unbiased version of world events.
These people still religiously watch the evening news on CBS, NBC, and ABC and trust it. These are among those who are easily swayed in election polls, who one day are inclined to vote “Republican” until the next “good ad” by the Marxist candidate or the “unbiased” condemnation of a Republican candidate from some host on Good Morning America.
If you say you trust the media ‘a lot’, you should stop calling yourself a republican. Globalist may be a more accurate term.
In other news, 1 in 10 Republicans are mentally ill Democrats and are trolls on conservative internet sites.
‘70 to 95 year olds life-long Republicans’
That sounds about right. It could include somewhat younger Republicans who don’t own computers and have never surfed the net. Likewise anyone in the designated age group who is tech savvy probably doesn’t trust the MSM.
What I’m saying is, older-plus-lack-of-online-access probably accounts for this alleged ten percent. (That’s providing the poll can be trusted. Since it probably relied more on landlines than smart phones, it probably over-sampled non-tech-savvy individuals.)
Bullshit bullshit bullshit
Old people recall when this nation and culture was great and safe and righteous and not so irretrievably effed up and minority dominated
Yep....the last made it all possible and it’s only gonna get worse
Young people are far less conservative ....it’s incredible the gap in general
I’m talking whites
Minorities other than Viets all vote Dem as a rule
I know GenX and millenialz who watch the msm because they vote GOP for economic reasons but don’t like the culture war therefore media and news and Hollywood just don’t offend them like they do us..me
I don’t know any 75 year old white libs where I live
Bull Pucky! I’m mid 70’s, all my ultra-conservative friends are 70’s-80’s, and none watch the liberal filth produced by the media!!
These people still religiously watch the evening news on CBS, NBC, and ABC and trust it.
That perfectly describes my 87 year old dad, who has slowly been turned into a brain dead liberal, by near constant consumption of mainstream media propaganda over the last few decades.
His positions and attitudes on every substantive issue, are now 180° opposed to what they were when I was a kid.
What's ironic to me, is that he and I have completely traded places since the early seventies. Back then, I was the brainwashed liberal, and he was the fiercly patriotic conservative.
At least 40% of registered Republicans and 98.7% Democrats suffer from some form of feeblemindedness. As evidenced by local, state and national election results from the past few decades.
It's hard to find anyone under the age of 70 who still has a landline at home.
Possible exceptions would be people like my 60 year old brother, who's lived in the same house since before the advent of cell phones. He's had the same home phone number for forty years.
