Donald Trump’s presidential campaign is distancing him from efforts by allies and former aides to sketch out his plans for a possible second term.
But even as Trump’s campaign has been blaming outside groups and allies for bad headlines, Trump himself has been vowing “retribution” against his enemies and ramping up his use of violent and authoritarian rhetoric, including saying he would only be a dictator on “day one” of his second term. He has also pledged to appoint a special prosecutor to go after President Joe Biden and has outlined an immigration agenda that includes militarizing the southern border and mass deportations.
Because WAY too many brainwashed, uneducated, cult members have literally plugged their ears and gone "LALALALALA" if anything that doesn't support their world-view hits their "news" feed. And I use the term "news" lightly as it's a lot of just garbage memes on social media or propoganda "news" networks like NewsMax and OAN are their sources of information.
We all know the type of bottom-of-barrel dredge that fills his rallies: alcoholic deadbeats, meth heads, pridefully illiterate let alone uneducated. Racists, bigots.. Someone who ate one too many lead paint chips or sniffed that leaded gasoline.
Interestingly, studies by neuroscientists see remarkable distinguishing factors between liberals and conservstives. Conservatives have a larger amygdala, having a heightened sensitivity to disgust. They have a smaller cingulate cortex compared to liberals, reducing pattern recognition and maybe more importantly pattern dissonance.
I really don’t get why people that old or supposedly rich don’t just fucking vanish and go live a real good final bit of life. Like I’d fucking love waking up every day in a beach mansion never worrying about people screaming at me or putting me in jail.
Polls a year out are meaningless. IIRC, Obama was "losing" at this point during his re-election as well. Democrats have been beating polls by 9+ points at the ballot box since Roe v. Wade was overturned.
Interesting that those polls never include spoiler candidate RFK, Jr. who is polling in the (very low) double digits and mostly attracting Republicans.
I don't want that crazy fucker to win, but it's interesting to me that pollsters always leave him out when it sounds like he could seriously swing the election in Biden's favor, isn't it?
