Majority of Republicans Believe the Big Lie

Despite no evidence of fraud, new polls show that after the election, the supermajority of Republicans believed Trump’s Big Lie of widespread voter fraud.

Another study shows that nearly half of Republicans believe ‘it was appropriate for legislators in states won by Joe Biden to try to assign their state’s electoral votes to Trump.’ Trump’s radicalized base has set an unprecedented new norm for the Republican Party that openly rejects the democratic transition of power. Both current and future GOP lawmakers must embrace the Big Lie and conspiracy theories in order to appease their base and win their votes.
