'He's a fighter': Trump supporter says he's looking forward to denying 2024 election loss

A new poll from the Washington Post and the University of Maryland shows that Republican voters are now even more likely to believe false claims about the 2020 election and the January 6th Capitol riots than they were in the aftermath of the attacks.

In all, the poll found that just 31 percent of Republicans think President Joe Biden was legitimately election, down from 39 percent in 2021; that only 18 percent of Republicans believed the riots were mostly violent, down from 26 percent in 2021; and that just 14 percent of Republicans think Trump bears responsibility for the riots, down from 27 percent in 2021.

What's more, many Republican voters surveyed told pollsters that they believed baseless claims about the FBI instigating the riots.

"It was planned," 68-year-old Jacksonville resident Gloria Bowden told the Post's pollsters.

In addition to this, some Trump supporters told pollsters that they were looking forward to him not conceding defeat should he lose again in 2024.

“He’s a fighter — he loves to get in that courtroom and would appeal anything that’s up against him, and I think that’s what people really like about him,” 49-year-old Arkansas resident Michael Bettger told the Post.

In contrast, Bettger predicted that Biden “would accept defeat” because “he’s a political person, and he does basically everything everybody tells him to do... he doesn’t think outside the box.”
