Voting for Trump is basically a “safe” way for people to jam a thumb in the eye of Clownworld (for lack of a better word). There are a lot of people, myself very much included, who are absolutely sick of how the modern day cult of wokeism has turned everything in our lives into a dumpster fire of cringe-inducing awkwardly shoehorned-in intersectionalism. There is simply nowhere to escape the cult anymore: virtually all mass market entertainment (movies, TV, literature, videogames, and even fucking niche aspergian hobbies like knitting or cooking) is riddled with social justice cancer. It’s anti-human, anti-fun misery and it feels absolutely suffocating to many, MANY people.
I think that the number of voters in America who are tired of and disgusted with all of this is greatly underestimated by the koolaid drinkers. A lot of us just want to hit back and watch these people go through paroxysms of cognitive dissonance when Trump gets reelected and aren’t expecting much beyond that. That fat fuck Michael Moore was right when he said that electing Trump was the biggest “FUCK YOU” in history. The Democratic party has apparently to this day not seriously considered that their cultural brand is simply odious and unappealing, and that more than anything else is why they lost in 2016 and will be the single biggest reason they'll lose in 2020. If they’d eased up on the wokescolding horseshit in the last four years, they would now be in a much stronger position to sweep Trump out of office and would have been able to outflank him on policy. Instead they’ve quadrupled down on it, and now seem to be unable to understand why right wing populism is surging in the western world.
That right there is what the silent majority rhetoric is referring to: people who are tired of being hectored by nigger, tranny, and faggot issues everywhere they turn in their daily lives, and just want to get back to grilling. It remains to be seen if this cohort still outnumbers the lost and the damned, but I personally think it does and I also think a great many more have shifted over to this side after the shitshow of the last four years. I suppose we’ll find out next week, but I’m cautiously optimistic.
