    A majority of registered voters believe that the indictment of former President Donald Trump over his handling of classified documents is politically motivated, a recent Harvard-Harris poll found.

    The poll, which surveyed 2,090 registered voters from June 14th to 15th, asked respondents, "Do you think Trump's indictment over the handling of classified documents is a valid indictment, or is it politically motivated?" While 45% said it was valid, 55% believed it was politically motivated.

    44% of voters stated that the indictment is a "fair application of the law," while 56% believe it is a form of "interference by the Department of Justice in the 2024 elections." A majority of respondents, 58%, said that federal prosecutors either have a "very strong" or a "somewhat strong" case against Trump.

    When asked whether the indictment would hurt or help Trump's political chances, voters were nearly split. While 51% said that the indictment is a reason for him to withdraw from the presidential race, 49% said Trump should keep campaigning.

    A full 72% of respondents stated that Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information, while 69% said that she obstructed justice by destroying her emails. Meanwhile, 65% of respondents stated that President Joe Biden mishandled classified information after documents were found in his home and office.

    A slim majority, 53%, contended that "indicting a former president for taking classified documents after leaving office, something done by Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and other senior officials," is a form of "selective prosecution."

    In addition, 57% of respondents to the Harvard-Harris poll believe that Trump will be acquitted, and 53% say the next president should pardon Trump if he is convicted and sentenced to prison.

    An overwhelming majority of respondents, 83%, say they want increased transparency from the FBI and the Department of Justice over allegations that Biden took a $5 million bribe when he was the Vice President, while 55% believe that the FBI is "not really investigating" those accusations.

Was it a judicious ploy for Joe Biden's FBI to execute the unprecedented raid of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate?

  Yes; the Cheneys despise this former Republican president, and for good reason ... so they say.

  No; never has a former president been treated with this level of vindictive abuse by those temporarily in power.

  Who cares? It's Trump.

In the face of a known scandal finally being revealed by the corrupt Legacy Media regarding Joe Biden, his Mishandling of Classified Documents and his long history of Influence Peddling to our Foreign Adversaries for Personal and Familial Profit: What do you believe the outcome will be in America's Leftist practice of a Two Tiered Justice System?

  Nothing will happen since the Democratic Socialist Left is corrupt to the core, and their non patriot ambitions are only the control of power.

  Justice WILL be served, but NOT without a tremendous fight by those willing to save the Republic.

  Why can't everyone else understand that the Left is special because we care so much for our own, especially the well being of the president and his family, especially Hunter.

  What difference does it make; I am a product of a failed public education system.
