Almost posted this to /c/slop for the cognitohazard but these '20 biden to '24 trump voters really are just lost souls that maybe deserve some :gasp: empathy and outreach

Katrina, a 53-year-old independent voter, said it was hard to put into words why she's so anxious, but she knows she is.

"I feel anxious that nothing has really changed," she said. "I mean, Trump talks about this 'Big, Beautiful Bill,' but, it's like, I don't see any difference. In my life, I don't."

Like yes this is leopards ate my face content, but on the other hand:

Melody, a 37-year-old independent, added: "I wouldn't immediately think bad of someone. I would want to talk a little bit more about it with them because … to me, they're at least trying to think of a solution where everybody has rights and everybody has food, everybody has a house, everybody has a job. They're at least looking for something like that for everyone."

Marianne, a 57-year-old independent voter, said she thinks traditional Democrats are "more centrist" and cater to more corporate interests.

"But they also care about the people as well, the working people," she said. "Whereas socialist Democrats are more about community."
