Poll Finds 62% of Republicans Believe Gov’t is ‘Hiding’ Info on Epstein’s Clients
(www.mediaite.com)
And it’s so ironic that those are the same people who were the most vocal about focusing on Epstein.
These people are also the ones who supported shooting up a pizza place because of "Pizza Gate" but they're now silent
The sooner more people realize that percentage is a lost cause the sooner we can start moving forward. That percentage will follow everyone else eventually. That's what they do. They are not leaders.

Word. No other idiocy perpetrated by this admin has been rolled out more over media outlets of all persuasion. Called out by critical voices from their own ranks. Nothing has been more obvious in the past 10 years. You need to not only close your eyes and ears but also loudly sing "lalalalala" to not recognize that. You need to want to not listen to be part of these 37-38%, so yeah, beyond redemption.
Taco's approval rating is now 31%, so that is hopeful.
So about the same amount of people who voted for him?

These asshole Republicans currently RUN all three branches of government. Who's doing the hiding??
The goverment is hiding a lot here.
Why is 38% so stupid?
Well, of that 38%, probably 8% are undecided. That leaves 30%. Of that 30, as someone else mentioned, some of those are sheeple from religious stuff. The rest? They're literally holding up Swastikas and chant "Jews will not replace us". Maybe not all of them are supporters of the Nazi party. Some are probably just klansmen.
You're basically looking at the evil underbelly of America. You know, Republicans.
Decades of underinvestment in education.
Bear in mind, in these polls "Republicans" only comprise less than a third of the overall population. In the US it's about equal proportions of "Republican," "Democrat," and "Unaffiliated" and only about 2/3 of the US population actually votes. Therefore, when you see "38% of Republicans believe XYZ, you may think that's 19% of the total US population, but in reality it's only about 12%. Still high, but consider that about 20% of the adult population can't accurately answer the question "does the earth rotate around the sun, or does the sun rotate around the earth "
Religion teaches you not to question things that don't make logical sense, he preys on those religious folks.
Why are they all so fucking stupid?
And yet 50% of republicans would support a third term
"but at least they aren't Democrats"
A refrain I've heard so often from them after bemoaning some inhumanly bad thing they think a Republican has done.
But do they believe that's a bad thing?
Because it's that blaringly fucking obvious
Yeah, they've been doing that for a decade? Two? A while, let's just say a while.
There will be a really upsetting documentary in 50 years or so (maybe)
Well, if they are able to read..

Rephrased
BREAKING NEWS!:
Turns out that ONLY 38% of GOP are idiots.
Rephrased
BREAKING NEWS!:
62% of republicans believe Trump is hiding Epstein ties, but still actively support him.
Oh no no no, we really can't say that yet. We need another statistic to say something like that: Is the government responsible for hiding info on Epstein run by democrats or republicans?
I would wager that a considerable amount of those 62% would answer that it's Biden or Obama who's behind the cover up.
At least 38% -- The other 62% still vote the way the way they do in spite of their suspicions.
In unrelated news, 38% of Americans are considered mentally challenged on the global scale.
Mind you it says 62% of Republicans.
100% of those not up the arse of the orange cunt think he's hiding people from the Epstein list.
Surveying Dems about the same question will probably get you near 100%. It's the same 37-38% that are always blind followers for the Rs.
38% of Republicans =/= 38% of Americans...
No, no. 38% of Americans are mentally challenged.

Far more than that.
Fine. 100% of Americans are 38% mentally challenged.
Of that 62%, how many of them care in the least?
Which means 38% of Republicans are stupid.
#1 way to produce conservative voters is to cut public education.
The latest poll shows that you do not need a poll to show you that trump is a lying, racist, thief, pedophile who will do anything to not get caught. Even start a war with Venezuela.
Why are people so hyper focused on Epstein? MAGA supports this and everyone else already knows what happened as per the victims. Is why isn’t the focus on the constitution?
We really should be past trying to expose the truth about Epstein and onto imposing consequences for these crimes
This being a poll, the most important information is the exact question they were asked. If you ask the same question in a different way, you can get wildly different results. I clicked through to the Reuter's link from this article, but I'm not sure it says the exact question.
From the graphic on that page, it says:
"The federal government is hiding information about Epstein’s alleged clients"
From Republicans, the "Yes" is 61% (I'm assuming this is a rounding issue with their software), and "No" is 17%.
So, strangely, the headline of this post and of the article that OP linked seem to be accurate, but if you read the content of that article, it's quite a bit less accurate. It's the opposite of what you normally expect from clickbait news articles.
Of course they are because most of them are oligarchs and they can’t turn down their money. 
Very close to the 67% milestone.
Doesn't matter as long as people sit it out because the candidates don't fit their ideal standard of what a politician should be, nor checks absolutely all of their issues to their liking. Heaven forbid the candidate fails on the one issue that they enjoy projecting ad naseum about.
Hmmm, I wonder what will happen when a notorious loudmouth in a position of power start holding up the release of information from a vile criminal to his conspiracy-theory primed base. Hmmmmm
Hiding info about what? This is a meaningless stat bc people who answered in the affirmative could think they're hiding stuff about whoever. A more meaningful question would be if they believe there's a cover up about the melted orange one
