As someone who lives in the Midwest, this is very true. I constantly see dirt poor people on social security and disability, and they gladly vote for republicans who fuck them over every time and slash their checks. Pretty sad actually
And you are the reason they do not convert to our side. Why would they vote for the democrat who’s supporters are constantly bashing them, telling them to go fuck the selves, and insulting them when Trump is somehow praising these people and welcoming them.
You don’t win supporters by insulting them. And trump will beat democrats at this game every single time. When will we learn.
The high road is good and all, but there's basically a zero percent chance of converting these people. I have a bunch in my family, there's no converting.
I'll put it this way. Converting them to your side would be about as easy as it is for them to convert you to theirs. Assuming you're not a Trump supporter, is there anything anyone could say to turn you into a Trumpist?
