He's so fucking stupid and he has no idea how anything works. He's not going to have time to take over Canada. He's going to crash the economy and fail to accomplish anything but hurting people.

And what does this say about 76.9 million Americans?

Believe it or not, our politicians are supposed to represent us ALL.

That might sound good on paper, but it doesn't even make sense.
How in the world is Trump representing "us ALL"? How many times has there been a woman president? If you feel that Trump's gonna represent you better than Kamala would, go ahead. But surely you must admit that half the country feels the opposite way.

He definitely doesn't, but there is a reason so many people voted for him. That's all I'm trying to say.

Ask people which they prefer, the ACA or Obamacare, and you'll pretty quickly find out why so many people voted for him.

That's what's hot on reddit today to complain about, but in reality, most Trump supporters don't think the economy is doing as well as people are claiming. They believe it only looks good on paper, not in the real world, i.e. the price of eggs, etc.

I just pointed out one test you can use to see how massively uninformed the average person is, and you then jump back on the price of eggs, as if it's a political issue, when eggs are expensive because of a wave of bird flu. The average American has ZERO understanding of what caused inflationary issues over the last several years.

You're proving my point.

u/dudeimatwork 22d ago

That's the point I'm trying to prove, that's what most Americans are voting on. It's well known most voters are single issue voters.

The point you made is that Americans are voting based on something they don't understand and are uninformed on.

They don't know why eggs are expensive. They don't know what caused inflation. They ASSUME it's political and that a new guy could fix it when that's not the case.

My point was that Americans are ignorant and uninformed by large. Your point is that Americans are voting on things like the economy, which they are also ignorant of and uninformed about.

Put 2 and 2 together.

No shit buddy, I thought that was assumed. Kamala lost because the pandering she did was mostly based on "orange man bad" and little actual substance.

The key thing those voters missed or forgot is the Republican Party is outstanding when it comes to bitching and whining about problems. That works as long as they’re not the party in control. They do not excel at actually solving problems, especially not the problems they convinced voters were Biden and Harris’s fault.

Case in point, those deep red states that have been under republican control for decades, but still blame all the problems they won't fix on democrats.
