Patriotic Americans against Tyranny

Perhaps the last time any of us saw nearly 80% of Americans agree on any issue was our resolute response to the 9/11 attacks by terrorists or our nation's spirit following Pearl Harbor.
Today's findings send a strong and unmistakable message to all politicians, pundits, and policy makers that there is no room for politics in a COVID-19 era....
[P]utting aside our differences and concentrating on policies that will protect our nation today and far into the future is our shared path forward.
America has no patience for any politicians who seek to use the COVID-19 crisis to advance their own partisan agenda.
That is the bottom line from a recently completed national survey by McLaughlin & Associates that reveals how this pandemic has united our nation in a manner not seen since we came together as one to retaliate against aggressor nations that would harm our democracy.
This comprehensive poll of 1,000 likely voters documents a shared, historic commitment by Americans to national unity as we begin the task of recovering from the health and economic impact of COVID-19. Equally important, the poll shows that this undertaking has no political leaning. When pollsters asked if the coronavirus is a "Republican issue," only 9% said yes. Some 7% said it was a Democrat issue. A stunning 79% of likely voters said, "partisan politics have no role to play in the coronavirus response."
