Suddenly the Vince Foster conspiracy seems sane compared to what large swaths of Trump supporters now believe.

"In a recent poll of nearly 1,400 people by left-leaning Civiqs/Daily Kos, more than half of Republican respondents believed some part of QAnon: 33% said they believed the conspiracy was “mostly true,” while 26% said “some parts” are true."
59% good enough to qualify as "large swaths"?
They described it as "a conspiracy among deep state elites," which doesn't involve any of the really crazy stuff that is peculiar to Qanon. Other polls have shown that the number of Republicans who have any familiarity with Qanon is much lower than those numbers, and lower than Democrats in fact (since it gets a lot of attention in left-leaning media).
Yeah they shouldn't describe qanon. Just say do you believe in qanon?
Navigator Research (pdf, pg. 6) asked that recently and found among Republicans it was 11 fav.% vs. 19% unfav. More Democrats were familiar with it: 4% fav vs. 43% unfav.
Even these numbers may be high for actual Qanon support, as people might have vaguely heard of Qanon and just associate it with Trump or something else they support.
