Lmfao, I posted an article about how Iowa was closing down polling locations in rural locations and A&H ignored it in favor of delusional sex cult conspiracies.
Many of them really did act like Hillary voters this year: Smug, assured they would win, and quick to shut down anyone pointing out potential problems for them.
I called that shit about a week before the elections. When I saw my bigly Irish Catholic family skip Hillary but were going to vote Biden, that’s when it was clear that the last several months of assumptions made were dead wrong.
The Upper Midwest and the Rust Belt gave Trump a shot because he promised New Deal-style stimuli and industrialization. Instead they got sanctions for Iran. Not that these people like Iran but Trump barely delivered on anything and Trump’s campaign barely even bothered to talk about his bread and butter: trade and immigration.At this point I’d say it’s a 50/50 tossup. Trump has to overcome the margin of fraud and too many people here think it will be a squeaker. Squeakers aren’t going to cut it here, he needs yuge and bigly wins to overcome the various “voting irregularities” that always seem to favor Democrats.
The average voter doesn’t give a shit about Hunter Biden and the only reason why Hillary lost was because she was so loathesome and craven in her ambitiousness that she repulsed a lot of voters. Biden being a doddering old man is concerning but concern registers much different than loathing. My Midwest blue Catholic family is universal in voting for Biden and they live in Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. I’m one of the few who voted Trump. They’ve been consistent Democrats for generations going back to FDR and skipped 2016 because Hillary was dog shit.
Ive been cautious this whole election because I think Trump missed a lot of opportunities to lock in the rust belt for generations and didn’t. I’m not saying he lost but too many opportunities slipped through to assume he is a lock or the same Trump voters in 2016 will turn out in 2020. The real scandal is the voter fraud, not Hunter Biden.
So why would they give him another shot? Little surprise they went back to not voting or voting for Democrats again. Voter fraud pushed it over the line. For the GOP to fight hard now is to go against over 60 years of concessions to the left. What will incentivize them to actually fight now?
