Voters are following the actions of the so-called antifa protesters and arent impressed with what they see.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that just 24% of Likely U.S. Voters have a favorable opinion of the antifa protesters, with eight percent (8%) who view them Very Favorably. Fifty-eight percent (58%) share an unfavorable opinion of these protesters, including 40% who have a Very Unfavorable one. Eighteen percent (18%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Fifty percent (50%) see the antifa protesters as primarily troublemakers looking to cause a public disturbance. Thirty percent (30%) disagree and view them instead as primarily a valid protest movement representing the concerns of many Americans. Twenty percent (20%) are not sure.
Seventy-one percent (71%) of voters say they have followed news reports about the antifa protesters around the country at least somewhat closely, with 37% who have been following Very Closely. Twenty-five percent (25%) have not been following news about these protesters closely, but that includes only six percent (6%) who arent following at all.

Rasmussen needs to tell the whole truth - how about a 'racial breakdown' of who the 8% are?
I'm guessing 'white elites' living on college campuses and criminal blacks and browns living in inner city ghettos... (in short - the democrat 'involved' base)
I see Antifa as terrorists. They are just like the fascists they claim to oppose, except that Antifa is real and violent, while fascists in our country tend to be imaginary or found in tiny little ineffectual groups comprised for the most part of FBI and other police who are each assigned to investigate the others.
32% find them favorable or very favorable. The liberals have done a stellar job of brainwashing the masses over the decades.
Troublemakers, is a far, far, far kinder, description than I would use!
26% is the usual percentage of solid base Democrats in any typical poll.
“26% is the usual percentage of solid base Democrats in any typical poll.”
On the other hand, I don’t think “solid base Republicans” would endorse street violence against those that happen to disagree with them politically. This poll result is truly disturbing.
