A majority of Americans now believe that Trump’s alleged Russian collusion during the 2016 presidential campaign, alongside the Steele dossier, are ‘false stories’ according to a recent poll conducted by Harvard Caps Harris.
More than half of Americans – 56 percent – believe that Trump working in concert with Russia was a lie. Another 56 percent also believe that the Steele dossier was untrue, but 44 percent still believe it. Still, that’s a marked shift from 2020, when 53 percent said they believed it to be real.
The 44 percent still convinced, despite the Durham report’s findings, are predominantly Democrats in their political affiliation. Seventy percent of Dems still believe the Russian collusion narrative.
Democrat opinions have scarcely changed regarding the Steele dossier as, according to the Harvard-Harris poll in April 2020, 77 percent believed it was true.
Despite this, an astonishing 69 percent of Americans say they are “not surprised” the “FBI violated its own standards in starting the Trump-Russia probe and became a funnel for disinformation from the Hillary Clinton campaign.”
That includes a majority of Democrats – 55 percent – who answered “not surprised,” with 79 percent of Republicans concurring.
