Contributing sentiments towards policy:

31% : A new cycle of false election fraud claimsOn Tuesday, before his debate with Harris in Philadelphia, Trump took to Truth Social to demand that Republican lawmakers shut down the federal government by not approving a budget if they're unable to pass legislation on election security while falsely claiming that "the Democrats are trying to 'stuff' voter registrations with illegal aliens."Flynn applauded and shared the Trump's Truth Social post.
28% : "I probably took a bullet to the head," Trump said, pointing at Harris, "because of the things that they say about me.
26% : During the debate on Tuesday night, Trump echoed Flynn's conspiratorial beliefs about government complicity in U.S. presidential assassinations by baselessly suggesting that Harris bears some responsibility for the attempt on his life.
24% : After receiving a pardon from Trump, Flynn urged the president to use the National Guard to seize voting machines and re-run the election while leveraging his clout as a retired military leader to rally Trump supporters to protest the certification of the election.
24% : During his debate with Joe Biden in September 2020, Trump refused to say whether he would concede the election and infamously instructed the Proud Boys (later to play a pivotal role in the attack on the Capitol) to "stand back and stand by.
22% : Delegitimizing the government through conspiracy theoriesOver the past six months, Flynn has been stoking fears that forces inside the U.S. government are plotting to assassinate Trump.
21% : "At that time, Trump claimed, falsely, that the election was being stolen through mail-in balloting.
4% : 'We go scorched earth'Expanding on the warning made by Flynn before Labor Day that there might not be an election in November, Byrne posted on X six hours before the presidential debate that Harris -- along with President Joe Biden, and former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton -- "will do anything to avoid the election in 60 days, even start World War III."Twice during the debate on Tuesday, Trump warned that the Biden/Harris administration's handling of the Ukraine war could lead to "World War III."Byrne and Flynn both paint a conspiratorial post-election scenario of chaos and strife, should Trump not be declared the winner.
