Poll Shows 63% in US Believe Trump Incited Deadly Insurrection

According to a new national survey (pdf) conducted by Vox and Data for Progress, 63% of likely voters—including 81% of Democrats, 67% of Independents, and just 32% of Republicans—believe Trump is either “very much” or “somewhat” to blame for the right-wing invasion of the Capitol Building, which led to the deaths of six people.

A majority of likely U.S. voters believe Republican lawmakers—specifically Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas.) and Josh Hawley (R-Mo.)—share some of the blame for inciting the mob attack on Congress as lawmakers moved to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s decisive Electoral College victory.
