...Trumps who garnered 74,223,975 votes in 2020.

So deeply disturbing. What is wrong with these people!


I like to be a bit of an optimist at times. And this would be one of those times.

I'm pretty sure that a significant portion of those 74 million votes were people who were not in the cult, but who were voting on their impression of the issues. People who don't pay close attention to the news, were vaguely aware of Trump's personal tendencies, but who believe that the Republican ideas for governing are the better ideas.

It's easy to forget that participants on this board represent a small minority of the population who pay very close attention to politics. Most people don't do that. And while some might disagree, Trump didn't really color that far out of the lines until after the last election. Yes, there was some degree of crossing lines, but he didn't rip up the coloring book and toss it out until after the election.
