politics

Some notes:

• Restoring safety to the United States (39% to 35% who said he made progress)
• Bringing law and order back to our cities (42% to 33%)

Speaks to the information bubble most MAGA/Conservatives live in. Right-wing media has been banging the "they're coming for you kids" drum for decades. According to them crime has always been terrible, and cities are the worst hellscapes for people to live. It ignores that statistics don't back this up at all, rural communities were/are-being devastated by opioids/fentanyl/meth, and actual per capita crime rates in big cities are generally lower than in smaller areas.

• Bringing back free speech to America (41% to 27%)

More right-wing media propaganda pushing the narrative that social media and the "main-stream media" (you know, as opposed to Fox News - the most watched news network in the US for over 20-years running) have been silencing conservative viewpoints. You know, viewpoints like:

• Trickle-down economics work.
• Immigrants are taking everyone's job, and it's the immigrants' fault, not the employers.
• Man-made climate change is a myth or overblown. This one has morphed so much over the years. It used to be that all climate change was a myth. Now, they say it's real, but not our fault. One day, they might actually get there!
• Trans people are in some way, lesser humans. Replace "trans" with "gay" or "black" and you have a conservative plank of ~30- & ~60-years ago, respectively. Notice a trend?

So basically, social media is trying to point out bullshit, and conservatives are noticing that "bullshit" mostly covers shit they say. Not to say liberals don't also spout bullshit, but it doesn't tend to become planks in the national party's platform.

• Keeping our children safe, healthy and disease free (40% to 26%)

Not even touching this one. The safe part is covered above. Remember "Stranger Danger," anyone?

• Stopping the weaponization of the Justice Department (41% to 21%)

More right-wing propaganda. Same as the "free speech" bullshit above.

• Being a peacemaker and unifier (47% to 25%)

Ignoring that this man has never in his life given off either vibe, how does one expect to find any "unifier" candidate when the to predominant political arguments in the US are:

• They have propped up a useful idiot demigod to consolidate/maintain power and overturn/reclassify/rewrite large portions of the Constitution and Federal Law at the expense middle- and lower-class Americans. But we will still offer up massive concessions on immigration, funding, etc. in order to keep the government operating and not punish those same Americans for Washington BS (for which a significant percentage of them voted).
• They are absolutely evil. They are woke Satanists. God wants you to hate them with every fiber of your being. They want to let rapists and murderers flood this country to take your jobs and children. They want to force your children to be gay or trans. They want you to rely on government for your every need so they can control you. They deserve nothing because we are 100% right; and if you can't see that, you're either not listening to us or you're one of them.
