As a non US citizen I’m genuinely curious: how could people vote for this convicted, deranged, senile, racist, homophobic grandpa? Like what arguments do they use?
Inflation. “The economy” was the #1 polled issue among Republicans by far. We saw this as well with Bush and Trump’s win in 2016 - for a lot of people, a scary amount, if you just promise “hey I’ll make the economy better.”
The media normalized him. Just like they did to Hitler.
Inflation.
But I think racism and homophobia as well as religion is another big reason. It just was articulated a lot less by people.
That means Trump will fix the inflation and Kamala wouldn’t?
No it means because the inflation happened on the watch of the Democrats that the Democrats are getting blamed for it even though a lot of it was caused by how Trump handled COVID.
But US voters have a very short memory. And Trump is a very good liar.
Also I forgot to mention gender played a huge role in this. A lot of this is about misogyny and racism underneath the surface.
Unfortunately, the Democrats should have ran a white man. Because that’s the state of this country really.
