And yet almost all of them (I'm being generous here) will still obediently vote R in the election. Gotta support the team!
The GOP Governor of Ohio wrote a NY Times op-ed essay on how nice Springfield is and how the Haitians there are all fine people. He went on to say that he's voting for Trump.
and the remaining 2/3 of the electorate is unsure about depriving millions of americans of basic welfare, equality and security, but it's probably fine
Given the stark polling, I'd imagine most of the unsure people likely just haven't heard of Project 2025 / don't know what's in it
it's such a weird thing to be on top of foreign politics when people who are the most concerned with the outcome of that vote are oblivious to what's at stake
I felt the same way watching AfD win seats in Germany's election.
According to the new poll, less than a quarter of those surveyed—23 percent—had never heard of it or were unsure of how they felt. Polling released in July by progressive firm Navigator Research showed that more than half of Americans reported being familiar with Project 2025—double the amount who reported familiarity with it just a month earlier.
You guys... we live in a post-reading society /hj
Damn... I didn't really expect that
