After accusing Donald Trump and Republicans of threatening democracy, it turns out a majority of Democrats would be glad to reject the will of the people.

By refusing to certify the election if Donald Trump wins in November.

The Washington Examiner reports, "A majority of Democrats would back efforts by lawmakers to stop former President Donald Trump from entering the White House by blocking his congressional certification of victory."

"In a poll that suggests a Democratic-style Jan. 6 protest, the latest Rasmussen Reports survey found that 57% of Democrats would support 'refusing to certify the election results if Trump wins.'"

The story continued:

What’s more, 52% of Democrats rejected the Supreme Court’s recent decision to block states from keeping Trump off primary and caucus ballots if local officials believe he backed the Jan. 6 MAGA riot inside the Capitol that stalled the certification of President Joe Biden’s election over Trump. While it is somewhat ironic that Democrats would be OK doing what some Republican lawmakers planned to do in the certification vote of Biden, Democrats have rolled out that strategy in the past. The survey showed that an even bigger majority of Democrats said Republicans should not have tried to block the certification of Biden’s 2020 election victory. 'Importantly, among voters who strongly support the idea of Congress refusing to certify the 2024 election if Trump wins, 58% don’t think Republicans in Congress should have refused to certify the 2020 election results,' the analysis shared with Secrets said.

Trump's poll numbers are looking good at this point in the presidential election, though it's still a long way to November and anything can happen.

But still, you have to ask: If Trump wins, how quick will Democrats try to undermine a democratic election and a democratically-elected president?
