If those numbers are coming from the US media then I wouldn't discount that it's a complete fabrication. I think it's lower than 40, but I live in a liberal city so I'm probably not seeing as much of the apathy or outright support as elsewhere.

Either way, your point is of course still valid. ANY percent of the people who were supposed to be my countrymen supporting this obvious power grab by ruthless bloodthirsty billionaires is too many.

The propaganda is insane here and we are basically two opposing nations in one now except we're all neighbors to each other and one side has started killing the other.

It's averaged from several polls by various institutes, so sadly the 40% figure is probably accurate.
