The Left-Wing Conspiracy Theory

More than half of Republicans believe the QAnon conspiracy is mostly or partly true. Three quarters of Republicans think there's a deep state cabal, which is sabotaging Donald Trump. This is an extremely consistent finding in authoritarian regimes that they get into office by promising like, oh, fix it, I'll kick out all the immigrants, whatever. And then they don't do anything because they're lazy and incompetent, and then they blame it on a big conspiracy. So even the left-wing conspiracy theories are more bought into by Republicans than Democrats.
