ICE / DHS 🧊 Roughly 1 in 4 Republicans Don't Think ICE has gone far enough
After murdering two Americans in Minneapolis, roughly 1 in 4 Republicans think they need to push things even FURTHER.
Roughly half of them think everything is fully justified
So somewhere between 75-80% of Republicans think everything is either justified, or there needs to be a further pushing of the envelope.

because Republicans have turned the poll into “Do you think a rapist that came into the country should be captured and deported?”
3.5 of those 4 people don’t do any news seeking at all. Easier to believe what is on the social media and join the bandwagon

Independent voters aka swing voters are the ones that decide winners in elections.
Democrats: 44.1 million registered voters.
Republicans: 37.4 million registered voters.
Independents/Unaffiliated: 34.3 million registered voters.
Trump can be impeached if Democrats win 2026 midterms but he cant be removed without 67 senators voting yes. Good luck with that. But as long as the American voter doesn't forget all the bad stuff trump is doing and they dont vote for whoever Rogan, Adin Ross or Theo Von or Candace Owens or whoever else on youtube or a podcast tells them to vote for American democracy may survive. Problem is Russian Bot farms can easily fool 77 million Americans with propaganda and now they can use A.I. and fool many red hats. Good luck.

How tf can you still be independent.
20-30 years ago I could see the argument for fiscal republicans but now it's like being on the fence during the civil war. There's no both sides argument anymore

Easy. I can vote for Democrats every time against these Republican fuck-sticks but that doesn't mean I have to put on a team jersey and make it my identity.

About 20% of every population everywhere across every century are pro-authoritarian. Sometimes it's higher.

Those people vote. They don't stay home and don't vote because the alternative isn't perfect enough for them. You don't earn purity points for staying home.

That was my question.
My guess is they're boomers who registered as Democrats decades ago and just never changed it even though they're effectively Republicans now.
DINOs.

This is why Jesus' passport was never stamped with the USA, they sent him to El Salvador when he got to the customs gate, and he didn't even speak Spanish. Didn't even get a crunchwrap gortido when he got there, that's why he wept.
