“only 3% of Trump voters surveyed said they accept Biden’s victory as legitimate”
"Millions of Americans don’t even view Joe Biden as the legitimate winner of the election.
"Jacob Pramuk writes at CNBC:
Almost no Trump voters consider Biden the legitimate 2020 election winner
Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election. Nearly every supporter of President Donald Trump thinks otherwise, according to a new CNBC/Change Research poll.
As the president makes unsubstantiated claims about electoral malfeasance and sows doubts about vote tallies, only 3% of Trump voters surveyed said they accept Biden’s victory as legitimate, the survey released Monday found. A staggering 73% of respondents consider Trump the legitimate winner. Another 24% said they are not sure.
A mere 3% of Trump voters believe he should concede to Biden and start the peaceful transfer of power. Another 31% want the president to fight in court until states certify results. Two-thirds, or 66%, think Trump should never concede.
"This part is especially funny:
But the poll underscores the potentially bigger harm Trump’s lies about the vote tallies have done to public faith in the electoral process. The president appears to have convinced many of his supporters he lost unfairly, even as state officials and judges have repeatedly shot down claims of fraud and wrongdoing.
"Trump supporters don’t lack faith in the electoral process because Trump told them to. This is happening because people have common sense and know something is not right when multiple states cease counting votes in the middle of the night.
"Trump supporters have been physically attacked and called bigots, and worse by Democrats and their media allies for four years, but now are expected to act like nothing happened." . . .
