Lol, you think democracy voters are now going to vote for the rapist with 34 felonies? This changes nothing. If he was dead or dropped out like he should and they got a competent human to run, then yeah, I think you could see a red president. None of that is happening though so President Biden will continue to be President.

Uh... Yes?

They don't care. They only care about voting along party lines.

Literally every single Republican that I know even the left leaning ones and even the ones who are going to be immediately and purposefully harmed by a Trump administration are still voting for Trump.

It's insane.

The right has been very demotivated and nowhere near as enthusiastic as they were in 2016 - 2020. I fully expected a low turn out for conservatives this November.

This is incredible juice in their veins. They were gleefull watching Biden humiliate himself before the entire planet, but this will be in another level. Enough of them may turn out that Trump will be the first republican president to win the popular vote in two decades.

Whaaaaat? Win popular vote? That's hilarious, what flavor was the kool aid?

Elections are always won or lost as a result of the support or lack thereof of the idiots who can't figure out which candidate to vote for. Precisely the kind of idiot who will swallow Trump's "persecuted hero of the people" narrative hook, line, and sinker.

Nobody is falling for that bullshit that isn't already a proud member of cult45.
