I think my point is, given the competition and craziness, it shouldn't be a tossup.  Liberals need to ask themselves why it is a tossup against easy targets...  there is something off.  If you can't beat "eating cats and dogs" and "weather control" there is a big problem with the platform.

The other scenario is that there is simply a problem with Americans, or rather people.

You're underestimating how well hate sells to a lot of people and how many bigoted Americans exist, how many people are still firmly MAGA and love Trump cause he "tells it how it is" and how many people simply don't give a fuck about anything or anyone else except themselves (like their grocery prices coming down). It happens a lot in elections around the world, a far right nutjob gains millions of voters simply by banging on about, for example, immigrants being to blame for every issue in the world and they make lovely promises about how they're going to fix everyone's issues, so they vote against the current government and for the guy currently promising them the world.

There's going to be millions voting for Trump simply because they're bigoted, there's going to be millions voting for Trump being their grocery prices are high and they stupidly think Trump will fix it for them and Harris is part of the administration that they're blaming for it and there's sometimes no getting through to these people. There's millions sucked in by stupid propaganda spread by the likes of Twitter and TikTok.

If someone votes for Trump "Drill Baby Drill" and "Tariffs for Everyone" while Harris gives actual detailed economic policies, if someone votes for Trump after his disgusting attacks on migrants, if someone votes Trump after his insane ramblings, if someone votes Trump after he says Russia can kill America's allies. After he rips away women's rights, then that says a lot more about them and who they are than it does "Liberals" Imo.

Correct.  Most people are concerned about themselves and if one side has messaging all about helping others....  exactly my point.  It ain't working folks.
