Thanks legs!
I would love to reply as eloquently and knowledgeable as yours and I kind of understand most of your reply (Although I’m lost in some places) my Apologies.
I was just trying to see if Trump achieved anything during his reign and it seems very little (obviously)
Then How is it possible he’s ran Biden so close in this election? What was Trump selling to his voters that made them believe in him? I know a lot of people will say they’re “thick” but you can’t label almost half of the nation as thick.
I’m trying to understand how someone so hated by the masses globally was still in with a shout to get a second term.
Yeah, I’m not a particular fan of combining all 70 million of his voters into one homogenous group either.
For instance I can see that if you are a small business owner the combination of the tax cuts and deregulation could make a big positive difference in your life - more money in the bank and less paperwork to fill out.
Some will likely to be stylistic - there has been evidence of a large gender divide with women hating his persona where many men like the ”say what his thinks, damn the consequences“. Also cultural - Dems can come across as incredibly patronizing and condescending at times, “I think you might be a racist, please vote for me anyway” isn’t the most effective pitch.
There is probably some COVID fatigue/worry in there as well - “Biden will shut down the country, I‘m fed up and need to go to work”
A lot still believe he is a great businessman and, since prior to Covid the economy was doing well, feel he was entirely responsible for it.
