In the figure below, 82 percent of Clinton supporters and 88 percent of Trump supporters agreed that the country would fall behind if the other side won. First, 31 percent of Trump supporters said they would personally protest the legitimacy of a Clinton presidency. In contrast, the share of Clinton voters who said they would protest a Trump victory was just 20 percent. But if Clinton wins, just 45 percent of Trump supporters said that Republicans should work with her. Regardless of which candidate wins, however, our data and others’ suggest that the wounds of 2016 are unlikely to heal soon.
