As a voting bloc, they seem MUCH more willing to put their faith in a bunch of "elected" psychopaths.

I can't speak for anyone else, but it's been years since I trusted the executive branch. The judicial and legislative are fairly predictable. The Deep State has been solid I admit.

Yet the Trump cult puts their faith in lawsuits based on nothing more than bad rhetoric in order to elect a psychopath.

Most libertarians are like the weird geeks in HS that you couldn't even feel sorry for because they were so abrasive. They go to cosplay conventions in their 30's and 40's. They indirectly prop up the radical left and make socialism possible in this country.

It seems weird to include that they're working for a wage with the first two. I know it's just stream of consciousness buzz words, but the messaging is off.

It comes down to envy, and greed.

If you live mediocre lives, make poor choices, and take no responsibility, you can use government to take from people who are productive and work hard to make a good life for themselves.

71 million trump cultists.

That's a cult you don't want to take on.
Also the cultists put up their own money, they don't steal from others, which is pretty much what all democrats do.

One clue is college, and what see of the Sully demonstrations. Students are never taught accurately about collectivism and Marxist philosophy. And they only learn a simplified boogeyman version of fascism without any discussion that it was generally response to avoiding going marxist and a flip side of coin.

If they were taught accurately, they would know that to be properly `Antifa' you would be anti-Marxist as well.

Leftist Democrats "have completely overplayed the Racism accusation. Honestly my first reaction when I hear it today is to assume bad intentions by the accuser, not the accused."

Using one word is what the apathetic and lazy libs would do.

I don't believe that everyone who voted for Trump is a cultist.

Considering how many people did vote for Trump, if Trump had run a rational campaign and reached out to attract voters who are more centrist, he might easily have won the election.

Some people are just much more comfortable "trusting" others in making decisions for them. It's not just government. I won't ever understand it, but I see it every day.

I promised myself I wouldn't come spike the ball, but I find myself instead mocking the bitter attacks which amounts to the same thing.

Ciao for the night and carry on. .

I don't know if it was a fantastic job, but he worked at it and it certainly helped.

One thing that I've read about was his effort to win over more of the religious voters. Considering that he's an actual Christian who goes to church quite regularly, unlike Trump, it shouldn't be surprising that his commercials on religious radio stations helped him improve his share of religious voters.

Here's an article on the subject from https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/11/how-biden-swung-the-religious-vote-435954

Quote:

There is perhaps no better illustration of how the Trump campaign failed to neutralize the threat of Biden's outreach to Christian voters than in Kent County, Mich. An evangelical enclave in the Midwestern battleground state, the county gave Biden 50,000 more votes this cycle than Clinton drew four years earlier, ultimately flipping it from red to blue.

"In the Midwest, we saw gains that in a number of ways outpaced our margin of victory," said Josh Dickson, national faith engagement director for the Biden campaign. "The reason we won in these key states is because of the coalition we built. I think the work we did to engage evangelicals and Catholics undoubtedly helped us get there."

In Georgia, where white evangelicals make up about 35 percent of the electorate, exit poll data shows Biden grew white evangelical support for the Democratic ticket by 9 percentage points, drawing 14 percent support to Clinton's 5 percent in 2016. ...

"It's just an unbelievable swing. He basically tripled Clinton's numbers with white evangelicals," said Michael Wear, a former faith adviser in the Obama administration. "To be clear, if Biden would have performed as poorly as Clinton did four years ago among white evangelicals, he would have lost Georgia and this election."
