Despite what the media might have you believe is the most important thing to have you pay attention to (that Biden is old), it seems that the general public is more interested in learning about something else: Project 2025. Not that many appear to be...
See, I never got the whole businessman thing. Like, Trump’s claim to fame in that area was that he’d driven his businesses to bankruptcy like 5 different times and had to get bailed out? And you want this man to be in charge?

MULTIPLE CASINOS. There was a riverboat, and the one in Vegas (Tropicana?), and more than one in Atlantic City.
STONKS!
Yea anyone with half a brain would realize it but people just saw he was rich and said he’s a businessman and never bothered to check.
It’s actually why people always call me smart, I don’t think I’m particularly smart but I always ask why and always take an extra step to check things out where most people would just take things at face value.
Smart people do 2 things:
Ask questions
Realize other people are smarter than them
Honestly I think he won because he said he was going to not be a politician. People hate politicians and were happy to put someone in who was naive to all of it and who said he would fix all the corruption.
And then he went on to be a horrible human being on a day to day basis, usually via Twitter, was more corrupt than nearly anyone before him, and the only swamp he drained regularly was his own staff who he threw under the bus constantly.
I think he will lose this time because he already showed he won’t do any of that. He hasnt even mentioned it this time has he.
Well, this is just anecdotal, but my family members all voted for him because we had a hard R in the Whitehouse for 8 years and they were pissed about that.
Took me way too long to figure out ehat you meant there with the hard r, and thats wild. Unfortunately, and I dont mean this directly for your family, but I have a strong feeling racism has to just die off. I’m not convinced its possible to fix someone’s ideas about that after say 30 years of it or whatever.
I have to ask though, do they just hate all Democrats, and being black was the easiest thing to target? Or maybe they see the party as intertwined with minorities.
They’re stereotypically Republican: old, white, fearful of anybody with melanin and blame the left for everything. They’ll say “we hated Obama for eight long years” and when you ask why? What did he do that you hated so much? “We’re not racists!!!1!” Like, ok? That’s not an answer.
I’m sure too many low information voters his claim to fame was simply his name on big buildings and the TV show where he played the business guru judging everybody.
