Most of what you've said is also true in some capacity of Republicans. Congress is not made up of the working class for either party. It's not an issue exclusive to Democrats. >Trump is probably going to win the election and it's kind of puzzling to me that people are asking why. This isn't about Trump magically finding more supporters, it's about people turning against the extremism of the Left. And what about the extremism of the right? I'm still waiting for any actual left wing policies to be implemented. Waiting for actual universal healthcare. Meanwhile, the right has successfully banned abortion in many states. Forcing 10 year olds to give birth to their rapist's babies. Forcing people to die for a pregnancy that wasn't even viable anyways. Banning topics in school to placate straight white culture. |
America is not left-wing in the slightest, it always makes me laugh when Americans claim that, let alone labelling it as extremist left, America isn't even to the left of the UK which is currently ruled by a transphobic right-wing party. The biggest far-left I notice in America are the Commie idiots who are batting for Russia which ironically the far-right do as well but when looking at people with actual power, who are these far-left extremist? Cause I struggle to name a single one and clearly if there are any, they are irrelevant/ignored and unable to achieve anything.
The Supreme Court is pretty hard-right right now, there's a notable group in House of frankly insane MAGA cultist who booted out their last Speaker for the crime of working with the Democrats and then MTG tried it on Mike Johnson for the crime of working with the Democrats. Funnily, the Democrats tried to pass a pretty right wing border bill which was only prevented thanks to the Republicans on orders from their Supreme Leader Trump after spending months screaming at the Democrats to do something about the border but they don't give a shit about the border as much as they do using it as an election talking point.
Recently I've seen left wing voters angry at Joe Biden for frankly pandering to right wing voters, I've seen left wing voters angry at him for his recent border policies, for trying to pass the border bill which Republicans blocked, I've seen left wing voters angry at him for his Israel-Palestine stance (which is very much in line with Republicans) where is this extremist leftism? Because he passed a number of bills to help Americans out? Any form of social-help in America seems to be labelled as far-left communism by Republicans.
Meanwhile Republicans are ripping away women's rights, screwing over any chance of better healthcare, not even passing things they themselves want because Supreme Leader Trump told them not to, booted out their House Speaker for not being far-right, scared the current House Speaker into delaying Ukraine aid for months (more than half of Republicans in House opposed Ukraine aid), aggressively going after LGBTQ+ people, trying to ram Christianity down the throats of everyone, their Christian Extremism is no different to Islamic Extremism and they're trying to ram their beliefs down peoples throat and force others to follow them.
Trump is the rot and the Republican Party is becoming the Party of Trump, if Republicans still wanted a Monarchy they should have stayed under the UK. They treat him like he's Jesus Christ, he can do no wrong, they can do nothing without his approval, the only time MAGA showed any anger towards Trump was when he wasn't personally there trying to help them overthrow the government then quickly went back to worshipping him, if this isn't a cult then I don't know what is. They tried to do a goddamn insurrection on the government cause Trump lost an election, Lol.
It was a complete embarrassment for the USA and that sums up Trump's impact, he makes America look like a complete joke.

I'm not too concerned about polls right now, I'll wait until closer to the election before paying attention to them, there has been a few very obvious nonsense ones which would be unprecedented shifts in voting habits which should be taken with a grain of salt, especially when Trump hasn't done a thing to deserve such a huge shift in voting habits from his 2016 % and his 2020 %.
First the debates need to happen and then we'll see what the polls say a month or two before election, what I do see though is Democrats consistently overperforming in recent elections, so I don't think if there is a problem it's with Democrats as a whole but with Biden himself, likely down to the economy not improving quick enough.
Trump won't improve the economy though, Lol.
