NEW POLL: As August 13 Deadline Nears, Almost a THIRD of Republicans Think Trump Will Be ‘Reinstated’ as President This Year
MEDIAite ^ | August 11th, 2021 | By Tommy Christopher

Nearly a third of Republicans believe that former President Donald Trump will be “reinstated” to the presidency this year, even as the fantastical August 13 “deadline” for that event approaches with no sign of its fruition.

It has been more than two months since the political media world was set abuzz when The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman first reported that Trump was telling confidants that he believes he’ll be reinstated to the presidency in August, reporting that was later confirmed by other outlets — and fed by delusions floated by Trump allies like MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell and attorney Sidney Powell.

And Trump himself appeared to confirm this in June when he told a crowd in North Carolina that “we’re gonna take back the White House, and sooner than you think.”

According to Lindell, the date of Trump’s miraculous ascension was to be August 13 — two days from now. And even though there have been a flood of fact-checks that show this to be a legal and constitutional impossibility, and intense coverage of that fact, a stubbornly large percentage of Republicans are immune to that truth.

A Politico/Morning Consult poll published Wednesday asked respondents “How likely do you think it is that former President Donald Trump will be reinstated as U.S. President this year, if at all?”

Among Republicans, 29 percent said it is either “very likely” (19%) or “somewhat likely” (10%) that Trump will be reinstated. That belief was even stronger among Republican women, 32 percent of whom see Trump’s reinstatement this year as likely.

Actually Pillow Man said last night at 7:00pm Trump was going to resume his rightful place at the White House.

Or some other insipid nonsense like that. An earth shattering BOOM.

(I didn’t feel no boom, did you?)

Among Republicans, 29 percent said it is either “very likely” (19%) or “somewhat likely” (10%) that Trump will be reinstated.

They never show their polling data. They just say their poll shows this or that, such as the line I pulled from the article.

They don't say when this poll was conducted either. For all we know it could have been from February, if the poll ever was ever done at all.

The data in the link posted at top of my response, proves that the result did not show 1/3 believing what they claim, because somewhat likely, and even very likely show nothing more than almost a 1./3rd would like to see that happen. But no one I know, or know of, has made the claim that claim, not Mike Lindell nor anyone else.

So, all that confirms your assertion that this is a BS article.

"I don’t see any plausible way that he would be reinstated. What would it be?"

There's no way that Trump will ever be elected president. (super-sarc)

Insanity.

But that’s par for the case these days.

Judging by FR posters there are plenty who think so, and hope so as fanatics of Trump alone.

I wish I lived in the same universe as that 1/3rd of Republicans. Unfortunately I’m stuck here living in reality.

No. Not even a mini Earthquake.
This event looks more like a platform to promote Lindell,
Frankspeech.com and his LindellTV.com channel than
evidence of voter fraud.

If you mean the Muslim Brotherhood, their removal had nothing to do with the people. (The people voted them in.) That was thanks to the efforts of el-Sisi and his military coup.

if the repubs take the house. and the senate in the midterms, then look out.

that will open the doors for a trump return in 2024

if lindell’s evidence moves the masses to march on dc, i will be there making noise... but i do not think aug 13th will be the date.

more like labor day weekend

Not a chance. A large group of open-minded thinking people will conclude that massive fraud took place, but as far as reinstatement: not a chance.

Wishful thinking at its' worst.

President Trump will not be reinstated by any date. Nor will he be elected again.

That is just a rationalization for postponing some very unpleasant "choices".

“ This is a lie.
We don’t have that many stupid Republicans.”

I agree 100%.

This is another dry attempt to keep Jan. 6th narrative alive because “there are Insurrectionist in our midst”………..

“He said he will file an emergency case.”

Who said and who’s filing what? Just saying you’re going to file an “emergency case” to SCOTUS doesn’t mean anything.

The vast majority of cases are rejected going up through normal channels. Why this alleged submission would be taken is quite a stretch IMHO.

just because he SHOULD be reinstalled in the White House does not mean he WILL

the DemoNaziCommies stole the election so brazenly and they control Congress and still the Supreme Court

who is gonna reinstall the President?
there is no remedy
and
the DNC Election Theft machine will CONTINUE to steal USA elections now, indefinitely

We are in a post-Constitutional era. Only power matters now, not the niceties of law they do not follow but demand that we must.

Republicans really need to clean up elections before 2022. Uncovering the fraud is for that purpose - not to install Trump.

The only way out of this is taking back control of Congress. Even 2022 won’t be enough because the Senate is mired in the uniparty.

It is my understanding that what every Lindell said is being misrepresented. Trust the leftist media at your own peril.

Egypt’s military followed the massive outcry against the Islamic Brotherhood.

Massive outcry?

There was a massive outcry in Tahrir Square, though, talking about a massive martyrdom in Jerusalem.
