re: #153 austin_blue

I look at 53% and I wonder, why so low?

Why not 63%? I know that there are about 30% to 35% of voters who are MAGAts and Ever Trumpers, but who, exactly is still sitting on the fence?

His economic policies are screwing the economy, his foreign policy has been a disaster, our standing with the world community at this point makes us look like Shriners in clown cars, and yet there is still a 15% chunk of voters who won’t take a stand.

I mean, what does have to do? Throw our staunchest ally in the war against terrorism in the Middle East under a bus? Oh, wait…

Remove us from a Climate Change accord that the US championed? Oh, wait…

Pull us out of an agreement that put hard and fast controls on a country that could produce nukes, in conjunction with our closest allies? Oh, wait…

H. L. Mencken said “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.”

He was right.

Night all, may you have sweet dreams. Maybe tomorrow is indictment Friday, the last of 2018. There is always hope.

It’s the “undecideds”, i.e. people who like Trump but are too chickenshit to tell the pollster.
