Speaking of blanket statements...
The vice president was a traitor to his party.Ooohhhh, blanket statement. Republicans love the Constitution so much they will kill the vice President to ensure they get their way.
Do most Democrats support BLM?That's the point, to show how incorrect your statement was.
Most Democrats don't have a big beef with the police.

Defund The Police
That's good. Maybe they are realizing that defunding the police is not the way to deal with the problems they want to address.BLM means both the idea and a large number of specific organizations. Speaking for myself, I support BLM the idea, but none of the specific organizations. So it may be hard to measure that. But since you bring up 'Defund the Police'.
A (slim) majority of Democrats say they are more likely to vote for a candidate "who supports funding the police".

Hopefully the Republicans will not beat around the bush and immediately start passing legislation that outlaws all other political parties so when Trump rightfully takes his position as undisputed leader of the world things will go a lot smoother.
BLM is a monetized hashtag
It seems to be for some people. I guess you couldn't see the sarcasm in my post?
How can a hashtag riot?A hashtag that cost 25 lives and over a billion dollars in property damage.
How can a hashtag riot?
<Looks at the Benghazi investigating>If/when the Republicans take over the majority in Congress in November, I suspect the feelings about who likes which agencies will shift again once investigations by the Republicans into actions by the other side get going. And trust me, there will be quite a few investigations on the way.
Sure, they say that now. Or at least 5 months ago when the poll you reference in your link was taken. Go back a year or more when that wasn't the case, shortly after George Floyd, etc. happened. I think those who were for "defund the police" are now seeing the increase in crime and are re-thinking their position.BLM means both the idea and a large number of specific organizations.

They knew what they were doing but the rioting wasn't organized by any group. I and a dozen people can get together and call ourselves whatever we want. Does that mean that whatever hashtag we used was responsible for our behavior?Then I guess the rioters had no idea what they were doing when they carried signs around with the words that BLM stands for, or when they spray painted the words onto the remains of buildings they destroyed, or why they even chanted the words hundreds of times. They must have just been rioting for the sake of rioting.
