"Two-thirds of voters with a favorable opinion of Donald Trump believe President Barack Obama is a Muslim, and a quarter of them believe that Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia was murdered, a poll released Tuesday shows."

"The Public Policy Polling survey showed 59 percent of those who said they viewed the presumptive Republican presidential nominee favorably think Obama was not born in the United States and only 13 percent believe he’s a Christian."

"PPP asked questions on several conspiracy theories, given Trump's history of pushing some of them. Trump told conservative radio host Michael Savage in February that it was “pretty unusual” that Scalia had “a pillow on his face” when he was found dead."

"Among other theories the poll surveyed, 27 percent of Trump supporters said they think vaccines cause autism and 7 percent thought Sen. Ted Cruz 's father was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, as Trump claimed last week ."

Is anyone surprised by this?  I mentioned in an earlier post that I was of the opinion that Trumpeters were predisposed to believe in unsubstantiated  conspiracy theories.  I've seen this phenomenon personally with certain members of a "message board".  Now, my opinion has some scientific basis.
