More Americans believe Charlie Kirk’s killer is a Republican than believe he is a progressive?

Incredibly, if you choose to believe a new YouGov poll, a plurality of Americans believe the alleged assassin of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk is a Republican.

Several outlets and notable figures have made the preposterous claim that the suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was a conservative Christian, when the truth is that he was a radical transgender man living with another transgender man whose own relatives admit he “hates conservatives and Christians.”

Federal authorities confirm that Robinson has been “deeply indoctrinated with leftist ideology.”

Yet, according to the poll, 24% of adults believe Robinson to be a Republican, while only 21% believe him to be a Democrat. Fifteen percent polled said he was neither, and 40% admitted to having no clue.

Tragically, fake news is still consumed by many. Speaking of which, most all mainstream media outlets — and many online sites -- seem to be trying to pass off the most preposterous lies imaginable.

“The transgender man who shot up a Catholic church in Minneapolis recently was actually a devout Christian nationalist and Trump supporter.” Never mind what he wrote on his bullets. Or what his family, neighbors the authorities, or his diary says!

The media has leaned left for a very long time now, but in recent years has morphed into a rabid pack of mudslinging liars possessed by Trump Derangement Syndrome and a vitriolic hatred of America and all things traditional.

If today’s mainstream media were around on Dec. 7, 1941, it would have reported that “Right-wing extremists have attacked Pearl Harbor!”

If the president at the time would have been Republican Wendell Willkie, instead of FDR, the media would have stated something like, “Willkie’s chickens come home to roost; regret your vote now, Americans?”

It is not just differing views. It is intentional deception.

MSM not trying to be predictive, but persuasive. Like their polling.

My guess is because he is White and looks like an “all American boy”. He was also good at shooting (apparently) and was wearing a shirt with the American flag on it when he did the deed.

Well, the American average I.Q. has crashed since O’Bama and Jo Pedo brought in all of the excessively stupid people on the planet to bring Americans their salsa and chips and to clean their toilets.

In all reality, he was a Republican until he went to college and was programmed to be a retarded far-lefty assassin with his grandpa’s old sniper rifle.

Mark Twain (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910).

“A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”

Simple: A lie spreads much faster than truth. What it means: People talk about lies more than the truth. And what masquerades as our “ free press” uses this to support its leftist ideology.

Just the MSM (all formats) hard at work talking to each other. Pay no attention as the difference between assassination and self-assassination are two opposite things, Charlie Kirk did not kill himself.

It’s leftists scamming the poll, pure and simple.
Even leftists don’t believe this creep was MAGA

“It is intentional deception.”

Lying this way is intentional contamination of the jury pools that will be in the future. And in that regard, the MSM should be an endangered species.

Heck... it could have been induced by “The Catcher In The Rye” and it wouldn’t have been the first time!

There is a method to the madness of the Soros paid propaganda machine. They always plant the first narrative knowing that it will stick. A large majority of Democrats still believe Russia hoax. Diabolical.

Operative phrase: if you choose to believe a new YouGov poll,

No one with any sense believes a 'poll' anymore.

Unfortunately, methinks is much worse than that.

After recent dealings with very intelligent leftists, I have come the conclusion that we are now in "Nineteen Eighty Four" territory and the Democrats have managed to redefine the truth as whatever the party says it is at the moment without question.

I am not worried about this because I don’t believe this poll for a sec. If the narrative media had any credibility left, Kamala Harris would be President today, CNN’s ratings would be through the roof, Jimmy Kimmel would be on TV and MSNBC would still be part of ComCast.

Their polling is simply another wall of their echo chamber.

Goebbels had nothing on these people.

It’s also the reason Tyler Robinson never lives to see his trial, where the truth would come out for all to see.
