(Worthy News) – More than a quarter of Americans worry that civil war could be a consequence of this year’s presidential election.
That’s according to polling for The Times in the United Kingdom. Some 27% of American adults were concerned about violence, according to a YouGov survey of 1,266 registered voters from Oct. 18-21.
As former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris campaign across the country for control of the White House, violence has been on the mind of some Americans. So far, at least two people are accused of trying to assassinate Trump on the campaign trail.
About 12% of survey respondents said they knew someone who might take up arms if they thought Trump was cheated out of the White House on Nov. 5. Another 5% said they knew someone who might if they thought Harris lost on account of fraud.
The poll found 84% of U.S. voters said the country was more divided than a decade ago, with 5% saying it is less divided.
In The Center Square’s Voters’ Voice Poll, voters said most of the blame for the two attempts to assassinate Trump during his campaign lies with the alleged shooters themselves, but they assign blame to other factors as well.
Likely voters said the alleged shooters (46%) are responsible for the attempted assassinations. Voters also blamed general divisions in America (40%), overheated rhetoric from Democrats (33%) and lax U.S. Secret Service protection (29%), according to the results of The Center Square’s Voters’ Voice Poll, conducted in conjunction with Noble Predictive Insights.

My personal opinion is this is completely the fault of the democrats. I think everyone here will agree with me. When you constantly tell people that our democracy is at stake, and that Trump wants to be a dictator and take over the country, these things incite violence. Here is more;
“Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz accused Donald Trump of descending into “madness” on Tuesday, following a report that the former president pined for the loyalty of the “kind of generals that Hitler had.”
Let’s look at a few more ways Democrats twist the truth.
Cynics assume all politicians are liars, but today’s Democratic Party leadership is particularly prone to dishonesty about policies great and small. In the final part of our series on Democratic lies, inspired by the fantastic fraud perpetrated by the party on the subject of President Joe Biden’s mental acuity, we see that almost the entire Democratic narrative is built on demonstrable falsehoods.
The series has covered climate, immigration, the economy, and crime. On the latter, for example, new FBI protocols deter accurate reporting, so the Biden administration can claim crime is decreasing when everyone knows it is doing nothing of the sort.
Let’s look at a few more ways Democrats twist the truth.
On abortion, they repeatedly accuse former President Donald Trump of supporting a “national ban.” But even the stories to which they link for proof, on which the headlines don’t match the contents, report Trump saying, “It shouldn’t be a federal issue; it’s a state issue.” The real abortion extremists are the 210 out of 212 House Democrats who voted against requiring medical personnel to try to save the lives of babies born alive, breathing the air of day, after botched abortions.
On Afghanistan, U.S. generals say Biden has been lying ever since the U.S. military withdrawal was botched. He says they recommended complete withdrawal when they didn’t and insists his administration followed their advice on how to proceed, which, again, it didn’t. Biden also claimed in last month’s debate that no American troops died on his watch despite the 13 deaths in Afghanistan, but that may have been senility rather than a deliberate lie.
On voting rights, Democrats repeat almost weekly the canard that Republicans have engaged in “voter suppression,” even though almost every time a Republican election integrity law is passed, voter participation goes not down but up. The caterwauling about Georgia’s voting reforms in 2021, which resulted in higher turnout and shorter wait times, is a good example.
On Israel, presidential heir apparent Kamala Harris on July 25 echoed the full-time Democratic narrative that Israel is responsible for an unacceptable “scale of human suffering in Gaza, including the death of far too many innocent civilians … with over 2 million people facing high levels of food insecurity,” even though the ratio of civilian-to-combatant deaths is lower than in any war the vice president might name and the people stealing food aid are the terrorists.
On Republican corporate tax policy, almost every Democratic official in Washington blames then-House Speaker Paul Ryan’s corporate income tax cuts for starving the government of revenue and harming the poor. The fact is that in 2017, the last year before the cuts, receipts from those taxes amounted to $230 billion but now have risen to $410 billion. The Democratic narrative is pure bunk. On the other hand, Democrats’ targeted sweetheart tax breaks for left-leaning industries or politically strong banks, included in Biden’s various budget boondoggles, are costing the federal government $650 billion in a 10-year span, according to data from the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation.
In years past, Democrats, including Harris, pushed flagrantly dishonest narratives on supposedly racially oriented violent policing, which now they have gone mum on because it makes them look weak on crime.
