Matt Dowd says that even if Kamala wins he expects Trump to get about 80 million votes. It makes me sick to think about it.
@BillieBun some are one way, some the other. Many are sadly both.
@BillieBun @dauphin87 Ignorant or greedy - when campaigns are raising billions (that we know about). buying 80 million even at a million each would be easy. Melon Husk has even given 115 million on his own.
@dauphin87 I'm not that good at math, isn't that about 25% of the population?
@Tacitus_Kilgore I believe there are about 162 million registered voters in the U.S.
@dauphin87 Yeah. I did the math accounting for the total population so that 25% goes to about 48% of voters.
Then again, I think you're going to see record voting so that number could go down to about 35%. Even that's too high.
Education is a major factor in all of this.
@Tacitus_Kilgore ently right wingnut hatred of college education is so deep that an agriculture major in the 1970s was still liberal indoctrination... so when the right wingnuts tell you to go to trade school? they're still going to hate on you for being indoctrinated. if you don't get any higher education, you deserve to be getting poverty wages though
@redenigma Such a wicked game.
@Tacitus_Kilgore it's just strange. do they forbid their kids/grandkids from going to college?
it's like the anti-vaxxers. they're vaccinated, so why are they denying their children the same protection? (noting that i was born before most childhood diseases had vaccines, so i saw the damage done)
@redenigma I'm convinced it's a psychosis of some kind. Trauma, environmental or a combination.
@dauphin87 A sizable percentage of our electorate is apparently fucking braindead.
As long as we are in the majority…
@dauphin87 No kidding. I'm trying not to think how ignorant or evil people are here.
