Fizzzzle Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Is there anyone who will vote for Trump tomorrow who wasn't going to vote for Trump yesterday? Show me this supposed demographic. Like... The issue has never been Trump gaining voters, it's Biden losing them. I keep seeing people say "[x] looks good for Trump," IT DOESN'T MATTER what's good for him. Everyone who is going to vote for him already decided that a long time ago, and people who aren't going to vote for him still aren't going to. And I started this post before the shooting. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spork3245 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 The fact that polling is constantly changing should show you that there are indeed undecided voters. These are the people who do not pay attention to politics and prefer Jimmy Fallon and James Corden as background noise at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comet Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 The fact that Biden’s faculties are so concerning is only going to grow the pool of undecideds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 There’s about a dozen undecided voters across 8 states who will decide the election and they are very, very stupid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarSolo Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 My brain can’t wrap my head around the fact that we as a people have lived under four years of both men… and we saw how Trump handled a crisis in 2020. Why would ANYONE want to go back to that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclyp Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I think this could turn some apathetic people who didn't really care for trump all that much but at the same time lean republican. But as I said yesterday I think we are all just awful at contextualizing stuff in the heat of the moment and we're trained to think everything is the thing that will make thing A or B happen. I think the Democrats have a great chance of winning if they get a candidate who can present a coherent thought to the general public in front of a live camera. It's a low bar!

Why would ANYONE want to go back to that? Yea but stuff costs more and it's 100% Biden's fault, even if inflation is global and the US has one of the lower rates in developed nations. Their Big Mac is just too expensive! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant wrap my head around the hypnotic effect Trump has on people.. being military its crazy to see how many strong, brave and patriotic leaders in uniform admire and support the guy.. somehow Trumps branding allows him to equate himself to them.. not just the few loonies that have been blown up too many times but actual rational individuals.. Its like the Nazis ideas of tall blond blue eyed super saiyans being the master race being promoted by a tiny dark haired mustache man.. it just makes no sense..

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I also worry about the dipshits that were more apathetical and would have likely stayed home on election day, now get pulled in by this to support Trump in the face of this attack. Like they would have votes Trump if they were motivated enough to go vote and this will action will motivate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fascism 101 True or perceived economic / general hardship, create a scapegoat and demonize the hell out of it, get a charismatic leader who claims (only) he can fix it, voila. Fanatic following who will do incredibly bad things for the greater good (in their eyes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, though I think concern about escalating violence is reasonable, at least far more reasonable than fear about how this impacts the election. I understand the news covers the "horse race" aspect a ton, but so do regular people, and I wish we wouldn't do that so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
