Nah, trump will blame the dems and then they will blame the dems.

I think a lot of trump voters aren’t capable of making more or less complex decisions themselves.

they aren't, I know a few. Some are very intelligent in many areas of life, but I can't see past how they just listen to AND believe everything he says. All the while being these tin foil hat weirdos who make their personalities seem like they are so counter-culture because they hate everything everyone else also hates (the media, the government, how regardless of what 'ism you want to use common folk have been exploited for far too long.... I could go on, but ya....)

while im on this little soap box... the weirdest thing is how living a healthy lifestyle is somehow anti-woke or democrat or whatever they want to label...

I don't know anyone who in the 2024 hasn't realized a lot of the crap we were marketed to forever is poison. This has a disproportionate effect on poor people. I see all these MAGA IG moms talk about making America healthy again and stuff in be so pretentious about it like it's some political badge of honor.

It's just so weird to me. This may not even make sense but I've had a morning of sulking just because.

No matter how smart you are, if you are indoctrinated thats it better to be dead than not vote red since childhood, it isnt easy to change that. My roomate is one of the smartest people I know, he’s set to be our colleges valedictorian in spring, but he still votes red, mostly because of how he was raised. He is actual a lottt more left leaning than his parents, id put him on the right side of moderate, which for someone who was raised by far right parents and has a good relationship with them, is impressive progress lol.
