What do you think the Democrats’ number one issue of concern is? Jobs? Poverty? COVID-19? The environment? Health care?

Pfft. You’re not even close. According to Kristen Soltis Anderson, the cofounder of Echelon Insights, Democrat voters’ number one issue is none of those issues. Nor is it police brutality or LGBT issues. In fact, the number one issue for Democrat voters isn’t even a public policy issue at all. Democrat voters are more concerned about “Donald Trump’s supporters” than anything else.

I kid you not. According to their survey, a stunning 82 percent of Democratic voters are Extremely/Very Concerned about “Donald Trump’s supporters.”

Run a poll of Republicans and you get things like “making Mr. Potato Head gender neutral”. Decisions like that are meaningless but they get bent out of shape about it. But it won’t cause anybody to die or threaten anybody or try to suppress anybody for its own ends. It’s simply annoying. His supporters do all of the above. I’d be scared of them too.

While the unrevealed poll methodology referenced in the source article looks skewed to the right (and the opinion piece definitely is), the above opinion appears to ignore and dismiss the source article altogether, as if unread. They did run a Republican poll as well...

I was making a different point.

But if you read the Republican list of issues there are some silly ones on there too.
