Poll: 66 Percent of GOP Think #MeToo Has Gone Too Far

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The #MeToo movement has shown no signs of slowing, especially amid the recent confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh despite an allegation of sexual assault. But a large portion of Republicans think the women's movement has already gone too far, according to a new poll released this week.

The survey from The Economist/YouGov asked, "Do you think the #metoo movement against sexual harassment," and respondents could choose among four answers, "has gone too far," "has been about right," "has not gone far enough" and if respondents are "not sure."

Among Republicans, 66 percent said the #MeToo movement has gone too far. Twelve percent of GOP respondents said #MeToo has got it about right, 4 percent said not far enough and 18 percent said not sure.

There was a divide along party lines, with just 11 percent of Democrats saying #MeToo has gone too far in how it has opposed sexual harassment. Forty-two percent of Democrats said #MeToo has got it right, 31 percent said it hasn't gone far enough and 16 percent said not sure.

As messed up as it is I’m actually encouraged that it’s not polling an even worse number. What is the gender breakdown in the GOP anyway?

[Fullduplexxx]

3. 100% of the gop is ok with a serial sexual assaulter as potus

Does anyone really give a sht about those fkg baboons think

[niyad]

5. and many of us think it has not gone far enough. FUCK the pro-rape party and its head, the

boastfully self-admitted sexual predator in chief.

6. Who is surprised by this?

The GOP believes in sexual harassment and voted for trump

[NewJeffCT]

7. "only" 66% of Repubilcans

usually, Republicans stick together 80-90% or more on an issue.

12. Guessing that captures the generation gap in the GOP.

and suggests how large a chunk of the base is middle aged or older.

8. Most repukes seem to think rape is a manly virtue

instead of the violent crime it is.

9. Who cares?

Most of them probably still think Saddam had something to do with 9-11 too.

10. Not a single one could give a sensible, coherent explanation as to what that means.

The Economist/YouGov is doing a disservice by conducting a worthless poll that will only contribute to a ridiculous narrative. Shame on them.

11. Remember the republicans are losing people every single day.

They change parties, they die off. They are not a majority.
