I am starting to wonder how Americans would vote now if trump allows another election?
Trump supporters continue to vote red despite decisions effecting their lives in profound ways.
Look at the anti-vax response after their own child dies of a preventable disease. It's moronic.
Just wait a bit more. The real pain has not yet set in. Wait until they have to decide whether to keep their mom alive or feed their children. It won't take long.
It wouldn't matter how people vote. Trump and Musk will be controlling the results.
That's looking increasingly like a big "if", unless you mean a Russian style election.
Are y'all ignoring that he has a 54% approval rating last I saw? Americans want this. Those of us who don't are going to be systematically silenced and eliminated.
Not as of yesterday .... Source
I live in a red state. We have a method of voting individual bills into our constitution as a majority process.
We have voted in a reform to get big money out of our politics. The Republican majority in the state forced another vote with the most obfuscated language to get the state to overturn it. We have voted time and time again against Right to Work which is an anti-union bill. The Republicans have constantly tried to get it to happen. St Louis managed to get its police out from under State control, leaving Kansas City the only state in the nation with the state controlling the cities police... until the Republican ran state forced St. Louis back under its control.
We voted in a higher minimum wage and guarantees for sick leave. We also voted in protections for abortions overturning the harshest ban in the state. These were overwhelming majorities. We as a state also overwhelmingly voted Republicans in, who have just overturned the min wage and sick leave bill, and are trying to figure out how to overturn the abortion protections.
So if we had a COMPLETELY free and fair election. I guarantee you, at least the portion of the country I'm in, would still vote for anything with an (R) next to their name.
