    More Republicans trust former President Trump and his campaign over the government’s certification of election results, according to a new poll.

    The poll, released Tuesday from Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and USAFacts, found 67 percent of Republicans trust Trump and his campaign for accurate information on the outcome of the November election. Just 51 percent of Republicans said they trust the government’s certification of election results.

    In contrast, 87 percent of Democrats trust government certifications, while 82 percent trust Vice President Harris and her campaign, pollsters found.


    Poll reveals Republicans trust Donald Trump's campaign over election results

    The GOP has become the biggest joke. I was laughing so hard when I read this that my stomach started to hurt

    It kills me how anybody could “trust” Trump. He is the least trustworthy person on the planet.

    It doesnt help that its presented as a binary choice between Trump and "the government"

    I think that's been obvious for four years. Actually, before that.

    Doesn't make it any less weird every time I see it. I've always said if you just hate Democrats so much that you're going to vote against them no matter what so be it. I can at least understand that argument. But to actually say you trust Trump after everything we've seen is just something I can't wrap my mind around

    Why am I not surprised. Going all the back to 2021 a majority of Republicans bought into Trump's big lie that he really won the 2020 election and that it was stolen from him through massive election fraud. There is a reason that I've been referring to Donald Trump as the greatest con artist in history.

    Paraphrasing Trump himself, he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and his supporters would still vote for him.
