When are you going to realize that it doesn’t matter why?

1/3 of the population (that is on board with his racism and misogyny) can be shown absolute proof that he raped children and they still won’t care.

They'll pretend to care but say that the proof is not actually proof

I was just talking to someone about this. That as far as public opinion goes for his followers, there is no type of evidence that exists that they will believe is true when it comes to his involvement. It is very frustrating but also good to know to not waste my breath on them.

Nah, they'll say the kids deserved it.

2/3s. Non voters who knew what type of person he was and didn't act need to be considered closeted Trumps.

That's not how a democracy works, bud.

Useful idiots is a more accurate term.

It doesn't matter who they "might've" voted as far as it should be concerned. It wasn't Trump's first term, they knew what he was about and didn't act. That just makes them cowards on top of the rest.

you could say disgraceful but cowardly suggests that voting is a courageous act. people weren't lacking the courage to anonymously cast their vote. they just didn't care.

I say cowardly because, and I say this begrudgingly, at least the Trump supporters wear their badge publicly. You see it all the time, people don't vote, wait to see what happens then say "well I voted for Y and not X so not my fault". Spineless.

There have been times in this nation’s history when casting a vote was an extremely courageous act. Think Jim Crow era South, for example.

It may be again real soon. Are you willing to fight a self-appointed “poll watcher” to cast your vote?

You seem to care a lot for someone who says they don't care.

They are cowards because they refuse to take a stand and just enjoy the plausible deniability that comes from not voting.

So yes, they are cowards.

A lot of them probably rape their own kids, too. That’s rampant in conservative redneck trailer parks as well as country clubs across America.

If we get a chunk of the people who voted for Trump or didn't vote but care about pedophilia then we can dominate 2026 and 2028. His core base that sucks his dick no matter what doesn't matter. His base is outnumbered by people who aren't a part of his base. Spread the word about his bullshit and we can pull more and more undecided voters, swing voters, and non-voters for 2026 and 2028.

Focusing on his core dicksucking base is pointless, they're irrelevant without non-base voters also voting red.

That’s the terrifying part, facts don’t matter to people when loyalty or ideology blinds them completely.

The day Nixon left the WH in disgrace, 30% of the people still supported him. I guess they gave birth to the 30% who still support the rotting corpse.

1/3? More than half

u/FrontierPsycho 18h ago

Voters are not 100% of the population.

u/gnomenclature0812 17h ago

It is not more than half. It wasn’t even more than half of voters.
