Do independents? Because they're who this election will rest on.
If an Independent can look at how the Republican party conducts itself and still be undecided on who to vote for then they aren't an Independent, they're simply a Republican that's socially aware enough to understand that calling themselves a Republican comes with more baggage than they want to take on.
I agree, but there are a lot of people with their heads (willfully or not) in the sand. All the wild stuff we're all terribly aware of they have ignored or passed on because they didn't have the time or motivation to dig into it and find the truth.
Stories like this one, the SC immunity nightmare etc. are still useful because they act as a hook to pull people into the discourse from the sidelines and at the same time keep these things relevant amidst Trump's unending firehose of falsehoods and projections
I understand what you're saying and I think it's a reasonable take, I just can't fathom how there could be anyone left in America who hasn't seen enough of Trump to make up their mind one way or the other. There's just so much evidence of him being a piece of shit everywhere you look that even intentional avoidance can't work for 8 years.
Hmm yes, just like all the "libertarians" who started showing up toward the end of W's time in office.
