I can\u2019t make sense of that number. I wish I could,\u201d analyst Susan Del Percio told Cabrera, appearing to be completely baffled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish I could have some really great insight to it, but I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s an outlier or not, because the other numbers with independents and Biden are going in the right direction,\u201d she said. \u201cSo, that may be it.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">MSNBC panel in utter disbelief that more independent voters think Biden is a greater threat to democracy than Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/x1qK9QCfCK\">pic.twitter.com\/x1qK9QCfCK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DailyCaller\/status\/1788544949748720088?\">May 9, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Now, first, it\u2019s worth noting that Del Percio is billed as a \u201cRepublican strategist\u201d \u2014 so Republican that she took a $160,000-a-year job as a \u201cspecial advisor\u201d to New York\u2019s <em>Democratic<\/em> Gov. Andrew Cuomo in 2014-15, as the <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2014\/03\/11\/cuomo-hires-republican-as-special-advisor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Post<\/a> reported at the time. (She <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/think\/opinion\/i-worked-andrew-cuomo-new-allegations-made-me-rethink-my-ncna1275976\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">publicly repented of it<\/a> after Cuomo\u2019s sexual harassment problems got too big to ignore.)<\/p>\n<p>Second, it\u2019s worth reiterating that this is MSNBC, a network that has dedicated itself to attacking Trump ever since he rode down the escalator in 2015 to announce his campaign for the presidency.<\/p>\n<p>This is the network of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-morning-joe-flustered-poll-showing-voters-trust-trump-biden-key-issues\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cMorning Joe\u201d Scarborough<\/a> and his Trump-hating wife; the television home of the racist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-joy-reid-says-poetic-people-prosecuting-trump-black-deis-bringing-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Joy Reid<\/a> and the rabidly anti-Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-rachel-maddow-melts-news-breaks-supreme-court-taking-trumps-immunity-case\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rachel Maddow<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So, it\u2019s clear that lucid objectivity isn\u2019t exactly a hiring point \u2014 not for MSNBC anchors, hosts or contributors.<\/p>\n<p>Del Percio is looking for some \u201cgreat insight\u201d into the poll\u2019s findings? Maybe this will help.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s fair to say that Biden himself \u2014 with the assistance of the establishment media \u2014 has made the \u201cdefense of democracy\u201d line his biggest talking point. Virtually since taking office, his administration has claimed that Trump supporters and elected Republicans who support the \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d agenda <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wh-wages-war-trump-voters-declares-5-maga-republicans-threats-democracy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">are a threat<\/a> to the American system of government.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a theme of coverage of the 2024 campaign in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/limbaugh-calling-on-moderate-democrats\/\" title=\"LIMBAUGH: Calling On \u2018Moderate\u2019 Democrats\">liberal media outlets<\/a> since Biden\u2019s re-election effort began in earnest in 2022, when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/09\/06\/us\/politics\/biden-democracy-threat.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The New York Times<\/a>, for example, headlined a report \u201cBiden Puts Defense of Democracy at Center of Agenda, at Home and Abroad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The hard reality, obvious to even a mildly objective observer, is that for all its talk about \u201csaving democracy,\u201d it\u2019s the Biden administration that has spent three years proving it\u2019s the real danger to American freedoms.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the Biden administration that has used its ties to Big Tech to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/reason-celebrate-july-4-judge-struck-blow-freedom-biden-admin-big-tech-censorship\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">squelch dissent<\/a> and that has used law enforcement powers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/explosive-docs-ag-garland-lied-congress-whisleblower-shows-fbi-flagging-parents-possible-terrorists\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">against American citizens<\/a> exercising their rights of free speech.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\">\n<p>Is the Biden administration a danger to American democracy?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>And it\u2019s the Biden Justice Department and the Democratic Party that supports it that are, in real time, engaging in an unprecedented act of political persecution under cover of law in the form of trumped-up criminal charges against the country\u2019s leading opposition figure.<\/p>\n<p>Progressives who love to preach about the dangers of Russian President Vladimir Putin are doing a bang-up job following his lead when it comes to power politics.<\/p>\n<p>And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/movie-review-platform-letterboxd-hides-all-reviews-for-matt-walsh-documentary-what-is-a-woman\/\" title=\"Movie Review Platform Letterboxd Hides All Reviews for Matt Walsh Documentary \u201cWhat Is a Woman?\u201d\">social media users noticed<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Maybe, just maybe, trying to stop your opponent using the court systems is the biggest threat.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 RDS (@RDS7500) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RDS7500\/status\/1788560637913600053?\">May 9, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote data-conversation=\"none\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">They need to get their heads out of their bubble and actually do their job and find out why.

And maybe, if Del Percio could put her thinking cap on, she might see that voters can see what\u2019s happening, too.<\/p>\n<p>What Democrats, the mainstream media and the hack leftists at MSNBC refuse to acknowledge is that when they\u2019re prosecuting Trump, they\u2019re persecuting his supporters, not only battling them politically \u2014 which is understandable \u2014 but bringing in the powers of federal and state governments to smother them legally.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not democracy, it\u2019s authoritarianism, and it\u2019s a festering weed that\u2019s growing in the rank shadows of the Biden administration.<\/p>\n<p>Republican voters can see that, of course. What the poll showed is that a majority of independents can see it too.<\/p>\n<p>And an MSNBC analyst is shocked?<\/p>\n<p>She must not be paying attention. Americans are.<\/p>\n<p>The election in November is going to prove how much.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p><b><i>An Important Message from Our Staff:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>We who work here at The Western Journal have fought for years against Big Tech and the elites who want to shut us down and then shut America down. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Make no mistake \u2014 nothing will be the same after November 2024.
