A snap poll has found that nearly a third of Democratic voters wish that former President Donald Trump had been killed in the assassination. The poll, conducted by UnHerd on July 18, reveals that 30 percent of Democratic voters agree with the statement "I wish Trump's assassin hadn't missed" and only 70 percent are relieved that the would-be assassin failed. The poll used a concealed technique called a list experiment to allow respondents to express their true feelings on the matter anonymously. Survey analyst Ethan Kaufmann, a professor of politics at the University of Buckingham, noted that the findings indicate that support for the assassination attempt does not significantly vary by age, race or education. Instead, the divide is deeply rooted in ideology and partisanship. Notably, respondents' views on race and political morality were strong indicators of their stance on the assassination attempt. For instance, 55 percent of Democratic respondents agree with the statement "White Republicans are racist" and only 20 percent of them disagree. This belief strongly correlates with their views on the assassination attempt. In a statistical model controlling for demographic characteristics, ideology and partisanship, the perception of White Republicans as racist emerged as a significant predictor of support for the assassination.

Another poll reveals 33% of Democratic supporters believe Trump staged the assassination

Another survey by Morning Consult reveals that 33 percent of Democratic supporters believe that Trump staged the assassination attempt against himself and 20 percent of all the respondents find the theory "credible." (Related: 9 House Democrats tried to nix Secret Service protection for Trump months before assassination attempt.) Furthermore, 38 percent of respondents blamed Trump for the incident, attributing the surge of violence in American politics to his supposedly divisive political rhetoric. In comparison, 29 percent held President Joe Biden responsible for his own demonization of conservatives. Another 31 percent blamed Republicans and 25 percent pointed fingers at Democrats. This belief highlights the deep-seated suspicions and conspiracy theories that continue to pervade American political discourse. Even host Joy Reid of MSNBC remains skeptical of the official account of the incident, struggling to accept that Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt by a disturbed individual who authorities failed to stop in time. Reid has even suggested that Trump may have been struck by "glass," despite clear photographic evidence of a bullet whizzing past his head. "The poll suggests that over one-third of Democratic voters think Trump is Neo from the Matrix, able to dodge a bullet with his head as the bullet travels 3,000 feet per second," commented Colin Rugg, reflecting on the absurdity of the belief held by a substantial minority of voters. These findings are particularly ironic given the media's long-standing portrayal of Trump supporters as prone to concocting "fake news" and indulging in conspiracy theories. This poll underscores that such tendencies are not confined to one side of the political spectrum. The poll results, including the one conducted by UnHerd, reflect the complex and often contradictory nature of public opinion in today’s polarized political climate, where conspiracy theories and blame-shifting abound.
