#1 Not what I'm seeing. Polls are garbage and most news especially this sort of thing.

#2 After a couple of Stryker Brigades clean out Portland there may be some pollsters who will change their results.

#3 ..nah, a militia just organized enough would clear the place quickly. There are enough vets out there in Oregon to do that. However, its all about 'will'. Like the 'warnings' we've had posted here on Kent State that ignore the real consequence of the event in the months and years following. Bad optics scare people into accepting the unacceptable. Be quiet and get in the box car, we don't want a scene.

#5 In my own poll, 80% of people are fine with not hiring somebody 'cause they're a jackass.
The other 20% had no opinion.

#7 From the CATO Report:

50% of Strong Liberals Support Firing Trump Donors; 36% of Strong Conservatives Support Firing Biden Donors

I know conservatives will say "This proves we're better than them."

Maybe.

Or maybe it just proves that conservatives as a group lack the ruthlessness required for the fight.

I have a feeling that if the Right ever does fight back and win, it's not going to be the self-styled conservatives who do it, but rather, much less "nice" right wing people who will probably give us all the horrors.

#8 I think Portland spends too little on emmissions-free hydroelectric power to start with. My grandfather didn't pay taxes so some idiots in the northwest could hog all the "zero-emmissions power" while taxing mine because Orange Fire Bad.
