Democrats utterly fail to calm anger of Trump supporters

 Paul Bedard:

Soul searching and lecturing following the election and Wednesday’s Capitol protests and riots have done nothing to tamp down GOP outrage.

According to a new survey, a record high 71% of President Trump's supporters believe the country is headed toward civil war.

What’s more, 40% of President-elect Joe Biden's supporters agree.

Trump has done little to cool feelings, today tweeting that he plans to stay in the fight after leaving office.

The poll from the Frontier Center’s Ear to the Ground, shared with Secrets, is the latest to show the deep division in the nation and likely support Trump has.

The Center’s Anne Sorock Segal told us, “The controversy over the disputed election outcome is crystallizing the view that a new Civil War is coming. Trump supporters view the election not as end point, now, but as a phase line in a war that has already begun.”

She offered up other details from the findings.

Has is that "unity" message working for Biden and Democrats?

I think the courts are also responsible for this attitude.  Dismissing the Texas case was a major mistake by the Supreme Court.  They could have provided a forum for dealing with the grievances rather than doing a cowardly dodge.  Other courts have dodged to never allowing a hearing on the merits of the claims by the Trump voters.  Then there is Big Tech which has responded to the grievances by telling people to "shut up."  That has been the attitude of Democrats across the board despite losing races across the country.

BTW, a poll taken after the Capitol riots shows Trump's approval at 51 percent.  That is more evidence that Biden and the Democrats are botching their response to the concerns about voter fraud.
