How do these people pretend to care about America? This is the cornerstone of what makes us a democracy? Sickening people.

Even more scary is that only 48% of backers think the election losers should recognize the legitimacy of the winner. These are dangerous positions to hold.

If the anti-American thug can take one thing to the grave, it's that he sowed faithlessness in our institutions and democracy more broadly.

The press is in the tank for Hillary!  Except for a select few of course.  No wonder Trump supporters aren't all completely convinced that the press is "important".  Screw the Hillary loving press!

Disgusting.

They think the news is propaganda though and Breitbart/talk radio is actually "true and free information" so they're fully brainwashed already.

This doesn't include Breitbart and Infowars. They can criticize whatever and whomever they please.
