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.

Reinstate Trump also means reinstate Pence. That may be a problem.

Appreciate it, but the big guy should really just call me personally. I don’t bite.

There will be about 20% who never wake up. I guess that’s you and 75% of the freepers. I guess at some point when Trump takes back over you’ll come on here and say “ never mind”. 😆

The poll was completed from August 7 - 9 by Morning Consult and Politico.

Interestingly, and what Politico doesn’t mention, is that 14% of Democrats believe Trump will be reinstated as well. It’s even higher with Democratic men at 19%.

” you’ll come on here and say “ never mind”.

I expect that I would bow down and beg forgiveness. I just don’t see the people that pushed him out in 2020 changing their minds, or going away. 2024 seems a more reasonable goal to me, if enough States manage to stop the fraud. Even that is a tall order.

I agree. From the get-go, this looks like a set up.

The American Communist Revolution was 11/03/20. It was over 01/06/21

Nary a shot fired

Based on the responses you’ve received so far, there continues to be no plausible way. But I base my viewpoint on the constitution and common sense.

Sadly, 1/3 of Republicans have not been made aware that the Constitution is now gone,
***Uh, you’ll need to elaborate on this one because it’s more like 99% of republicans.

At least REALity has a REAL chance.

Like, maybe Trump will run in 2024, or even help dislodge some RINOs in 2022. But even then, I feel I might be sliding into that abyss of self-delusional optimistic thinking these qtard republicans have generated.

I guess they call us republicans the stupid party for a reason. But I usually attribute the reason to our stupid leadership, not the rank & file membership.

I think these numbers are overinflated. Like counting KKK members. Very, very few remaining. Like ~3,000.

By what Constitutional precedent? At this point I treat any and all talk of reinstating Trump as a fundraising pitch at best and a leftist psyops at worst.

Shorten it up a bit, and it might be tagline worthy.
