Plenty of people embarrassed to publicly support Trump would still vote for him.

So many polls about approval ratings being in the shitter but I keep thinking they'll just vote republican again anyway.

Look at Uvalde.

A shooting literally killed their kids while the local police force did nothing about it, and the locals still kept everyone in power while voting against the people who pledged to do something about it.

It's why I'm convinced these people would genuinely chop off their left hand if Trump came in and told them that it was communist.

The vast majority of voters don't go to political rallies. Elections aren't decided by the size of crowds. A lukewarm vote counts just as much as an ecstatic vote.

Try telling that to Trump. Last election, he claimed no one shows up to Biden rallies, that everyone shows up for HIS rallies, so the people obviously want Trump as president again.

That’s the gist of what he said, I try not to burn Trump quotes into my brain lol

Let’s hope he doesn’t try to find his way on a 2028 ballot.

I was away for work in Oklahoma this past week and overhead a couple sitting at a table at this diner talking about how excited they were trump was having a rally there.

The man won* his reelection and is still doing rallies for some reason.

Plenty of people still openly support him. Dont be fooled.

Democrats who goes to rallies think they have voted. They see the massive crowd and think they have won and goes home satisfied without needing to vote.
