#Politics I think the statistical trick here is that the poll reflects responses by "people who usually think" of themselves as a Republican.
A lot of sane people have left the Republican party, and now consider themselves unaffiliated. The ones who are left are the MAGAs, so of course they believe #Trump despite all the evidence.
#Politics From #LATimes: #Trump will remain on #California presidential primary ballot.
โThere is no doubt that Donald Trump is a threat to our liberties and even to our democracy,โ Newsom said in a statement Friday. โBut in California, we defeat candidates at the polls. Everything else is a political distraction.โ
#Trump team scrambled to fly copies of fraudulent elector certificates from #Michigan and #Wisconsin to DC in time for electoral college vote.

#Politics From #CNN: #Colorado GOP appeals state Supreme Court #Trump ruling to #SCOTUS.
They're using the appeal I predicted based on my 1992 #Florida Democratic primary experience:
"... [T]he Colorado Supreme Court engaged in an unprecedented disregard for the First Amendment right of political parties to select the candidates of their choice ..."

#Michigan is making the point I made last week -- there's a difference between primary and general election ballots.
As I noted last week, we were involved in a 1992 #Florida case. The judge ruled the same, a party can choose whomever they want to be their nominee. But after that, the rules may be different.
#Politics From #CNN: #SCOTUS declines to fast-track #Trump immunity appeal.

#Politics Around the 2:30 mark in the #CNN interview upstream, the reporter says that the two Republican Wayne County canvassers testified to the #J6Committee that #Trump had only called to thank them for their service, and that they didn't remember him saying anything about the election.
If that's true, then the canvassers perjured themselves to the #J6Committee.
Let's not overlook that, for its potential to flip them or face a perjury charge from DOJ.
