And that's okay.
It's really not, because a lot of left of center voters just won't bother to vote for someone they don't like.
Then frankly, they are idiots. Any foolish “protest vote” come November is just helping Trump.
I never said they were rational. I'm saying they matter. Calling them idiots does nothing to keep Trump out of power.
Maybe 2024 is the year people realize you can't shame voters to the polls. 2016 should've been the year that lesson was learned, but alas, here we are.
i'm convinced that there are permanent blind spots that all societies have and this is the american blind spot.
i also wonder if it spells our demise as a society as well.
They are voting for Jill Stein and the worm guy anyway.
