Nearly Three-In-Four Democrats Indicate They’re Comfortable With The Military Overthrowing Donald Trump

A new poll shows that 72 percent of Democrats would either support or have no opinion regarding a military coup against President Donald Trump to “safeguard the Constitution,” as a similar number say that he should be criminally prosecuted.

Conducted by the Center for Strategic Politics in collaboration with Liberal Currents, Monday’s poll asked 683 Democratic voters a range of questions regarding their ideal next steps for American politics.

One question asked how Democrats would respond to waking up to news of one of several scenarios in which Trump is no longer in office.

Of those asked, 86 percent said that they would have positive feelings if Trump were impeached and convicted by Congress and removed from office. Another 84 percent said that they would feel positive about hearing that Trump’s Cabinet used the 25th Amendment to declare the president unfit for office and remove him.

Another 56 percent said that they would feel positive upon hearing that Trump had died overnight in his sleep, and another 31 percent said that they would feel positive about hearing that Trump was assassinated while speaking at a rally.
