The share of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents who believe that President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win was not legitimate has ticked back up, according to a new CNN poll fielded throughout July. All told, 69% of Republicans and Republican-leaners say Biden’s win was not legitimate, up from 63% earlier this year and through last fall, even as there is no evidence of election fraud that would have altered the outcome of the contest.

People must be kept stupid and afraid is seems. I don't know why. Power and control probably, but this is disgusting. All you can do is look out for yourself.

A brain-dead population is way easier to control. Source: greetings from Hungary!

The Republicans actually went to Hungary to learn from Orban.

What? Can you provide an article so I can read more about this?

Matt Schlapp, the head of the American Conservative Union and organizer of its influential conference series CPAC, told NPR this week that he was bringing his event to Hungary because it “represents Christian conservative values” and American conservatives want to replicate this in the U.S. by learning from the country’s ultra-right-wing authoritarian prime minister, Viktor Orbán.

Jesus Christ, it's like an educational field trip for fascism. Thank you for the article.

Sort of like the US Christian groups that went to Uganda and guided them until we now have a death penalty for being gay there
