'I am absolutely voting for Donald Trump': Undecided voters react to Biden's debate performance
June 28 (Reuters) - A group of U.S. voters who were unable to choose between Joe Biden and Donald Trump before Thursday's presidential debate delivered their verdicts after the contest and it was almost universally bad news for Biden.
Of the 13 "undecideds" who spoke to Reuters, 10 described the 81-year-old Democratic president's performance against Republican candidate Trump collectively as feeble, befuddled, embarrassing and difficult to watch.
I'm sorry, but if you went into the debate not knowing who to vote for where the fuck have you been for eight years?
And to come out the other side saying, "yea the orange lunatic lied to my face about everything , but on the other hand Biden looked kind of tired and stumbled on his words. I think I'll vote for the convicted felon.", I mean, are we humans really just this stupid?
I mean, are we humans really just this stupid?
Yes, yes we are. I feel your pain. I said it before and I'll say it again: I would personally vote for a corpse, but it's not me you have to convince.
And if I want to be slightly more kind and less impatient, many humans may mean well, but are so woefully uneducated and uninformed that they fall prey for the mass amount of right-wing misinformation from billions of dollars injected into the media-stream.
This is what happens when you try to substitute undecided voters for your progressive base. It's always been a dumb, high-risk strategy, but it's the only way neoliberals can put off being phased out.
I don't know who downvoted you because you are exactly fucking right.
Hey, just curious: who is down-voting this Reuters article and why? Come now, don't be shy!
I encourage people not to bury their heads in sand to ignore hard truths.
13 people is a pretty piss-poor basis for an article.
So is 8, but this post is getting upvoted just fine...https://lemmy.world/post/17050256
This is a focus-group of undecided voters -- a small population set to begin with and a sample set designed to be small, but who will clearly decide this election on the margins. You do understand how focus groups work and quite literally all campaigns use these, correct?
And finally, little data is better than no data. Nobody came away from the debate thinking Biden won; so it's not particularly a stretch to see this would hurt him with critical battleground state undecided voters.
Edit: Whew, talk about vote manipulation. I'm astounded by the complete and utter lack of substantive rebuttal.
One of us... One of us.... One of us...
Lemmy is just as bad as reddit but with fewer people. Downvotes aren't tied with the source but just the content.
"Space garbage kills puppy" post will be downvoted to oblivion and "Reddit CFO becomes homeless says BuzzFeed paparazzi" will get 1000 up votes.
There's also a lot of Biden supporters having a nervous breakdown right now
"Supporter" is a strong word. I prefer "person who realizes biden is the only option to slow America's descent into a fascist theocracy."
We just lost chevron so it might be too late anyway.
Lemmy/Reddit is full of Dems and any article that goes against the narrative of the day gets downvoted and it's the same with comments. It's not how it's supposed to work but it does
As a Democrat, I hope my fellow members of the coalition wake up.
It's not Dems.
How many peeps downvote with an explanation?
0.0002% !
How many upvote and reply with fawning or cream on top?
See what I mean?
It's a bug in lemmy. Drive-by downers.
