All I’m saying is that each individual votes according to their own priorities. If a Republican will reject Paxton in favor of Talarico, i question who is really being stupid.   

What matters is the people that don't end up voting at all.

Yup.  That seems to be the trend I am seeing in some groups of Republican friends at work.

They will never vote for a Democrat, but they don't have a problem with Democrats taking Congress to try to stop Trump's continued dumb decisions.

A couple of surveys lately have found that ~5-10% of Trump voters, if they could change their 2024 vote, would have voted for Harris and another 10-15% would not have voted for either.

If that translates to a 20-25% less turnout of Republicans this November, then yes, it will be a slaughter.

Dumb. The subtext of those surveys is that we would be better off with Harris as president. I’d like you have five minutes with anyone who believes that.

How about reject wasting time voting in favor of earning a few more dollars?

Businesswise, @bar-down probably would have been.

Their plan to fight inflation is to print more money and send out more stimulus checks.  Not kidding.

@oneeyedundertaker yeah I mean they are so far removed from reality that you can’t give them numbers.  At any level.

You need to look at Trump's record deficits and Trump's promises for dividend checks for

tariff relief

DOGE "savings"

stay at home mother payouts

ACA rebate checks

warrior dividend checks

and the recent promise to bribe people into voting red.

Spend, spend, spend with no end is sight.

Yep this was incredibly dumb. 55 Dem Senators is a very real possibility.

So we're getting money no matter who wins?

 

Trumps offering 5K... how much are the Dems dangling?

 

My vote can be bought.
