Says it all and it proves his and his regime administrations treason.

ruprecht-monkeeboy.bsky.social•1 day ago

The only thing that will make Trump do the right thing is a proper amount of voltage. He will never do the right thing given free will.

dannwest.bsky.social•1 day ago

But will he thumb his nose at the courts in general? Or wait to appeal to the SCOTUS he was paid to install?

gretagroots.bsky.social•1 day ago

21% of Republicans think he would never turn on them🙄 #impeach

nls5.bsky.social•21 hours ago

the fact that 21% of magas say he should not obey court orders is telling. One in five don’t care about the rule of law. Wow.

saraswati2301.bsky.social•17 hours ago

But 8% of democrats don‘t care either …

nls5.bsky.social•17 hours ago

yes. that’s one in 12. Still surprising but not one in five. I believe the willingness to ignore the constitution is correlated to education level. IMO

haddenmart.bsky.social•21 hours ago

So tell me the rationale of the 21% republicans who do not think dumbo has to obey court orders?

indgbleu.bsky.social•1 day ago

The Democrats in those other 8 percentage points must be interesting folks.

zferrell.bsky.social•1 day ago

The Courts are holding and moving pretty fast for courts. A lot of damage will be done in the interim. Any jackass can kick down a barn in an hour. It takes a carpenter a month to rebuild it. This national nightmare won't stop until he's impeached.🌅

journeygophell.bsky.social•1 day ago

Not a surprise so many GOP have NO RESPECT for the rule of law and do NOT believe THEY should have to obey any law, while the GOP reverently believe WE-the working taxpayers must obey every law, and any violation should result in the harshest sentences imaginable.

frenchie-66.bsky.social•1 day ago

A good number believe they can break the law with impunity b/c of their belief they are doing it for a higher purpose. It seems to be a standard for Republicans, any means justify the end.

journeygophell.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I believe that for Trump-MUSK-VANCE & the GOP the higher purpose is adding $$$$$$$ to their own personal wealth.

frenchie-66.bsky.social•20 hours ago

I swear they are playing out the script as the villains from the first 4 "Die Hard" movies
1. Robbing the Nakatomi building pretending to be terrorists
2. Robbing the treasury in NY as White Supremacist group.
3. A Para-Military group freeing a corrupt South American General.
4. The Fire Sale hack

journeygophell.bsky.social•20 hours ago

That is a good explanation of the lack of TRUMP-MUSK-VANCE-GOP ability to work within the US Laws.

awoifagbemi.bsky.social•1 day ago

There is hope that most people in this nation believe in the division of power among branches. I thought Republicans would be like 50% in support.

Republicans are cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs

keithdb.bsky.social•1 day ago

The Republican numbers will shift, be cut in half of that, as soon as Trump openly disobeys court orders and declares to his followers that they must believe it is okay to do that.

This "administration", let's just call it a dictatorship, does not care about public opinion. They are in power & are not likely to let go of it. What We The People think or feel is now irrelevant to maga.

Even Republicans? That's a first. Usually in these polls they're like 33% in favor of the sane thing.

Polls like this remind me that half the ppl in this country have below average intelligence.

adriennemh2425.bsky.social•1 day ago

It's almost as though Trump's descending into some serial-killer-esque, "somebody-stop-me" madness. His transgressions and actual offenses are more and more blatant and unapologetic; that he has his Party of the Broken Minds parroting and supporting his lunacy only adds to the clear threats.

pearlpurple.bsky.social•1 day ago

I guess all those Law and Order episodes sunk in

david-stone.bsky.social•1 day ago

Now that Trump controls all branches, he doesn't care anymore (is my thinking).

ullius.bsky.social•1 day ago

So - 1/5th of repubs are good with ending 1 of the most fundamental principles of the US constitution. Good to know. I assume the 8% of Dems didn't understand the question about their political leaning. (Lead exposure?)

votevaxresist.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Unfortunately, that number is meaningless. Because, even if Trump held a press conference and announced that he would henceforth violate every single court order against him, he would not lose any of those Republicans' votes.

i bet that 8% was like, “well it depends on the situation” bc i’m sure there are some who are far enough around who would love to see their preferred president ignore adverse rulings against, like, environmental, wildlife, reproductive rights, immunity, etc kind of issues.

some of us do be crazy.

cyditmoon.bsky.social•1 day ago

I am surprised that that number is so low. When I saw the poll's title, I was thinking 55% would say DJT has to obey. But yeah, it should be 0% say it is okay to ignore.

justinholbrook.bsky.social•1 day ago

I had a similar thought … I sort of felt relief at first. And then I thought, “What the hell am I thinking? Even 21% is insane.”

svennigan.bsky.social•1 day ago

It was an odd mixture of relief and disappointment. Relief because I was expecting less than 50% tbh, disappointment because it should be 100% across the board.

thekurlydogg.bsky.social•1 day ago

I bet it's a smaller number than that in reality. SAYING screw the courts and ACTUALLY looking down the barrel of a contempt charge and arrest warrant are two very different things!
