Have you read this whole thread? There is a lot of information, and links to more information, about how Trump’s popularity is down in every single state, not just California and New York. |
Are they meaningful and true? It’s wishful thinking to me. I can’t believe people will not vote for him again based on polls and information that was 100% wrong before 2016.
Over and over we were told he had no chance, he’d never be president, etc. To sickening heights. It’s like Lucy and Charlie Brown and the football, to infinity. I don’t believe popular wisdom and the party line anymore. |
I think the opposite. They are tired of being told eff-off, as the first PP pointed out, so they will outwardly disapprove of Trump until they walk into the voting booth, and then quietly vote for him a 2nd time. |
Not many people will support Trump openly now, depending on location. 3 of my relatives live in blue states and voted for Trump. They will not discuss politics on any meaningful level with neighbors and at work, but they will vote Trump again, no question. My sister works for the state in a purple state and votes d for gov to maintain her career but voted Trump because of immigration. She openly denigrates Trump, gives lip service to liking Hillary, and will vote Trump again. |
I think his Treasonous a$$kissing of Putin will turn off even the stupidest Republicans because at heart we are all patriotic and Trump is NOT. |
People who voted for Trump, in my experience, tend to be passionate single issue voters. They may be really intelligent and educated. These are not people who are interested in the broader picture, and they will never vote for a Democrat, no matter how vile the R candidate is. The issue could be abortion, taxes, the Middle East, whatever it is, it’s life and death to them. There is no nuance, no forward thinking. |
You are very very narrow-minded and never talked to any people who voted for Trump. |
Actually, I talked to a lot of Trump voters. I don’t think they are stupid, but it’s not clear, logical thinking that leads a person to vote for him. It’s myopic me me me thinking. |
The ones who are not dealing with reality are the ones who don’t understand how the odds are against someone to keep losing the popular vote while somehow winning the EC. It is not gonna happen. As it is VA,CO,NV,NM has already become blue. NC,GA,FL and AZ are on the way to becoming blue. WI,MI and PA have already swung hard against the GOP. The GOP has lost the bite share in every single election since 2016. The future isn’t so good unless the party gets on board with millennial (minority majority generation) issues such as universal healthcare, Climate change etc. |
But for comedy and Putin, orange con man wouldn’t have won the EC. |
They love denial and they don’t believe in polls coz Polls are WRONG. |
We have been saying this since 2010 at least. Come on! Demographics doesn’t matter unless people VOTE! |
Even with low rate of Hispanic and millennial voting the GOP can’t win the popular vote. They will eventually vote. Every election the white percent of electorate comes down 2-3%. How are they gonna compensate the loss if they are driving ALL minorities and women into the hands of democrats? |
Have you seen any evidence that any forensic examination was done on voting machines? And my belief that votes were changed doesn’t mean I don’t vote, volunteer, donate or contact my representatives. I live in the real world. Russia penetrating so many levels of our election infrastructure and not doing anything does not pass the smell test. |
For one thing, the Democrats always manage to grab defeat from the jaws of victory. They’ve taken a losing position on immigration after being relatively moderate until their donors in Silicon Valley told them to support immigration policies which normal people HATE. Do you think that someone who becomes a citizen after going through a completely onerous immigration process is going to support making life easier for illegal immigrants? NO. Every time they are in power they are toothless in supporting organized labor or holding Silicon Valley accountable. They just let everyone down. |
