When broken down into party lines, 15 percent of Republicans think he is guilty while 64 percent do not

Proving once again that the vast majority of conservatives are completely beyond help

Curious how many of those 64% know what they're saying he's not guilty of.

They are loyal to the Criminal Orange Conman, not the US Constitution and the judicial system the Constitution establishes. They don't care about truth and facts and they don't understand how the criminal justice system, especially with a jury, is designed to get at the truth of a matter. The bar of beyond a reasonable doubt is very high and they don't understand that. These people have not taken the time to educate themselves about these concepts and the truth about a public criminal trial. It dangerously erodes against the rule of law and our democracy. This crime was to influence the 2016 election and dupe voters. The Felonious Fakester preys on their ignorance and they let him do it to them. But what do you expect from an adjudicated rapist and his codependent fanatics who can't face the music? It's hard to stop when you've sunk tens, or hundreds, or thousands of dollars into a cause that you so firmly believed in. Populism's a tough drug to quit.
