    I don’t even think it’s a quarter. Even though he got a quarter of the votes, how many of them were just voting party? I think it’s more like 15% actual solid MAGA

      That article is reporting a survey though, which showed 24% of adults supported removing these broadcasters’ funding. The “one quarter” is not about how people voted, it’s about this survey. There’s are links at the end of the article to more information about the survey and its methodology.

        The fact that it’s as low as 24 percent is honestly kinda good, about 20-30 percent of any given population will go with basically anything the survey asks means tat the grouping for the cuts is comfortably in the “Statistical dumbass” region. That’s with decades of right wing propaganda degrading NPR, PBS, etcetera.

        Yeah. They are so dumb. Honestly, I think the only skill anyone needs these days is root cause analysis.
