Dem Group: Voters In The End Did Not Really Care That Trump Instigated Jan. 6 Attack

Priorities USA polling post-election found that Trump’s coup attempt was not a major factor, particularly for younger, non-white voters.

Summary

A post-election survey by Priorities USA found that voters in key swing states prioritized economic concerns like inflation over Donald Trump’s role in the January 6 Capitol attack.

Many did not view Trump as a continued threat to democracy, including key Biden-to-Trump voters.

Efforts by Kamala Harris’ campaign to highlight Trump’s authoritarian tendencies failed to resonate, as Trump’s image as a “successful businessman” persisted.

Democrats underestimated voters’ lack of hostility toward Trump, particularly among younger non-white voters, complicating their strategy in the 2024 election.

    I could have told you that a week after it happened. One of the most bizarrely overblown events I’ve ever seen. The attempt to turn bloodsucking legislators who were heckled and trolled by some hooting red state morons in to America’s Beer Hall Putsch was DOA. Only hyperpartisan #resist Dem voters obsessed over it. A nation that celebrates a healthcare CEO getting assassinated Hitman-style aren’t going to gasp and faint because Nancy Pelosi’s desk was vandalized and some security guard had a heart attack.
