Alright so first of all Breitbart so fuck off on that point but besides that: The source is one Bobby Piton who is claimed to be a mathematician despite his only qualifications being an MBA and CFA[1]. While both those qualifications involve statistics neither of them a mathematician make.

Further, this[2] is what Piton offers as the analysis he has conducted. Besides the majority being nonsense about God and country if you brought this to an undergrad maths professor you would be laughed out of their office. He literally adds up the percentages of his 'survey' and extrapolates it to state population without any sort of weighing factor or explanation of why he is taking a small sample size and 1:1ing it to the broader population.
