Even after losing his business to Trump’s policies, he stands by his vote: “Given the two people running, regardless of what they said on the campaign trail, I would’ve voted for President Trump again.”
His brother Stephen agrees: “I don’t think I had a choice to vote any other direction.”>
This got me. I would put money on that he would vote for Trump again.
“If I vote for a Democrat they’ll probably take some of my money through taxes and I’ll be poor”
Trump wins and ruins their business, they lose all of their money.
“At least I’m not poor because of evil Democrat taxes”
They have truly been brainwashed. Whatever bad shit republicans do they still believe the Democrats must be worse, because the republicans told them so. Even though the republicans have provably been lying to them for years.
It shouldn’t. It’s very common on both sides of the aisle. Never heard “vote blue no matter who”? That term was coined and used by large swaths of non-Republicans who agreed to vote for someone they don’t agree with about everything. The fact is that it’s extremely rare for any voter to be 100% aligned with the views of the person they vote for.
Actually, if you think about it, isn’t it more selfish to change who you vote for based on how you personally are affected by their policies?
Back in the day, a lot of folks couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Jimmy Carter because he wouldn’t take a strong stand on South African apartheid. We got ronald reagan who embraced embrace South Africa.
One, John Anderson ran as an independent in 1980, after losing the Republican primary. He had been a Republican until then. Early in that primary, he was a viable candidate for the nomination. He was initially likely to take more votes from Reagan than Carter.
Anderson supported the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), as well as an extension to the time for it to be ratified. The Republican party did not. Carter refused to debate Anderson; Reagan did not. On top of all that, at the time, the conventional wisdom was that Carter was a weak president, partially because of the still-imprisoned diplomats in Tehran, and a failed attempt to extricate them - which Carter took full responsibility for. This set of later circumstances probably took more votes from Carter. All that said, Reagan swept the popular vote by almost nine points, and took the electoral college handily.
It’s just good old brainwashing. They believe that voting for democrats will ruin their life so they vote for republicans and if republicans ruin their life then it’s bad luck.
That’s the amazing part. No, not them saying they’d still vote for Trump. The fact that they can still talk with half their face gnawed off. I just wonder - was it because of the “any Democrat/leftist bad” mentality, was it because she was a woman, or what it because she was black? He said it wasn’t anything said on the campaign, so it wasn’t how badly they tanked her run. Maybe a combo?
If you’re going to pull that dead end thinking, then how about trying to change the Republican party to help the American public? (I initially said “better”, but we’re starting at zero)

Yeah the logic always stuns me.

…And the Left does the same thing.

That’s not at all how that played out.

If you’re going to put words in my mouth, please order a side of chips and salsa.
Show me where I said that was the only reason Carter lost.
Show me where I said you said that.
SHOW ME THE MONEY!!! 🤣
A human head weighs eight pounds.
You had me at hello.
He would have voted for Trump again, even if HE KNEW his business would go under?! Wtf are these people thinking? That’s some royal hate
Republicans don’t know how to think. All they know is what daddy tells them. lol
Idiots.

Yeah because they won’t lose a lumber mill this time.
