benalvino3: Democracy and the choice of who to vote is usually sentimental and might depend on how you perceive someone vs the other Some people just trust Trump more There was this guy a blue collar white guy in his 40s. I was even trying to convince him to vote DeSantis and he was adamant. Its Trump regardless of anything you allege he did. At best he can take DeSantis as Trump deputy, He doesnt have anything against DeSantis but he just trust Trump more If you have it you have it. Its like the trust Northerners had/have for Buhari as incorruptible regardless of evidence you show them. 1 Like |

DaHighLife: Na you know say these issues are global, What concerns the average voter with inflation being global? The only thing that matters is I spent $50 on grocery during Trump times now I am spending $85. I filled my tank with $35 now its costing me $70. None of their business if there is war in the gulf costing the price hike Like in Nigeria where everyone is groaning under Tinubu, enter market in Onitsha Kano or Ibadan and tell the market woman that its global or that Venezuela Egypt or Anywherestan is having the same issue and see if they dont stone you out of the place All they are concerned is that this moment, my life was harder than it used to be, and the only person to blame is whoever is sitting at presidency 4 Likes 1 Share |

raumdeuter:Very well said. These strong variables you've stated would make or mar President Joe Biden. He and the rest of the Dems should indeed worry. Time for the Dems to reengineer themselves 'cos humans and voters generally take decisions based on self-interest and the desire to avoid pain. |

raumdeuter: So, women are more likely to be swayed by social issues that concern them like the issues of school choices for her kids, while men, to feed a family, sit in front of TV monitoring their stock market portfolio and pay more attention to economic issues? While, that's not what you said exactly, I am certain that the woman's social issues includes feeding her kids food too as well as knowledge that will empower them to feed themselves. I mean, sometimes, especially with inflation in the market, the money her man may provide might just not be enough. As a point, Indomi is now ₦17000 I hear, and no one got a pay rise. I think those men should get off their lazy asses and get a job to feed their family, but I might think that's because I am liberal and leftish and very awoke indeed enough to know that watching the weather is not sowing. |

raumdeuter: I do not disagree with you. But that is also the reason why Trump leads with mostly non-college-educated voters. How can you vote for someone to support your interests when you don't fully understand what effects those interests? Republicans excel at propagandizing, leading people to vote against their own interests due to a lack of understanding of the issues. It's akin to Trump right before the 2016 election; he criticized the economy, but a month after taking office, he claimed it was the best economy ever. What changed? Nothing. He even admitted it. That is also how Nigeria got Tinubu, not understanding what effects their issues. But Republicans have to be cautious with the 'are you better off than you were 4 years ago' question. Four years ago, many Americans were frightened, and countless were dying due to Trump's inept response to Covid. 1 Like 1 Share |

benalvino3: What concerns people and what influence their choices differ. What bothers you might sound silly to some people Some na Palestine issues concern them, while some might think why do you want to vote or let a bad candidate win just because of issues in a foreign land? Just same way someone will ask you what concerns me about democracy when I am not able to pay my mortgage |

raumdeuter: Oh yes, the polls. The same polls we once trusted so much when it told us our darling Hillary would be the President of America. Maybe the polls are right again I guess, but it's elections that decide in the end. As for money to feed your family. I doubt we should be that broke that feeding our family with money is a concern when we should be feeding them knowledge too. But note my leftism. If you can't feed them food and knowledge, consider not getting pregnant, or aborting please if you've irresponsibly fuqed. |

DaHighLife: Its left to the voters to decide and this concept of condescending non college educated is irritating. So because he is non college educated means he should die? or not feed himself All citizens are equal Wole Soyinka is equal to a roadside mechanic, at the end of the day they both have concerns and need to feed their family Its the belief that the political class are condescending and uncaring that has pushed many of them to Trump irredeemably and are willing to take the bullet for him. The country has to work for everyone college educated or not You want to be a Professor, I want to be a welder. At the polls we are equal Republicans and propaganda? Lol you are funny, Is that not what every politician and political party does? These people are tired of the 2 parties as they see no difference between Bush and Clinton, Romney and Obama. They are all politicians who dont get them and are only there to screw them over Regards the Covid thing, its the voters that will also determine what matters to them. They knew where they were and where they are and will make a decision based on the information available to them and their life |

raumdeuter: Fewer at the last election, I dare say, and I bet more and more trust him less considering all he's done since. Democracy is not "usually sentimental" for many. In fact, for some it's very intellectual, and it requires knowledge and understanding and all. You wouldn't here claim your own democratic preference is sentimental, so why assume that of others (apart from dumpists) is sentimental? It's not perception for everyone, Raud. Some make their democratic choices based on what they actually see with their very own eyes. |

raumdeuter: My intention wasn't to insult Republican's voters, I was speaking matter of fact, but to highlight the complexity of issues which requires citizens to be informed. By reducing the vote to a popularity contest rather than engaging with these complexities, they do a disservice to the country. Take the example of the tech people you mentioned—do they truly understand why jobs are being outsourced? If they did, why would they support Trump and the Republican party? It's no surprise that I've voted Democrat, and while I acknowledge that every politician spins to some degree, what we're witnessing now is on a completely different scale from mere political spin. Republicans are outright lying about numerous issues. Take Ken Buck, for instance, who recently resigned. He was a conservative Republican. Here's what he said: We’ve gone from a time when the Tea Party stood for conservative principles, for constitutional principles, to a time where the [populists] have taken over the Republican Party and are really advocating things that I believe are very dangerous,” he told host Chris Stirewalt in an interview that aired Sunday. 1 Like 1 Share |

benalvino3: I think it's dawning on you you've spent days trying to bully someone because of your obsession with me. Well done. He said this is how a cult behaves. lol Such lack of self awareness. I don't think Biden nor Fani is without blemish. I have posted on here my concern with Biden's Israel policy and the fact I think he is old. I have also talked about Fani Willis was silly for the Wade issue. But at the end of the day since they are both prosecutors and prosecutors by nature of their job have an adversarial relationship with the person on trial, it is not unfair to Trump. Though wade should probably resign to make things smoother. But, you know how you can tell someone is a cult member is when someone can write posts after posts about Willis, yet say nothing about Thomas taking money from people who appear before him even though he is the Judge who is supposed to be impartial. Why don't you square both of your stances. Yeah, cult members generally can't. |

DaHighLife:Jesse Ventura is a native son and actually popular and well known... He'll balance RFK jnr's ticket. Besides Kennedy is a raging liberal , he only disagrees with the rest of the democrats on vaccines. You don't understand the coalition that made up Biden's win in 2020... They comprised of never Trumpers and moderate liberal leaning independents. Biden isn't gonna lose much support from the Dems (maybe roughly 2 percent votes to RFK jnr) but he (RFK jnr) can actually win over left leaning independents and moderates that voted for Biden in 2020... Now they're fed up with him and would never support Biden again. Third party candidates like Cornel West, Jill stein, RFK jnr and even no label party would actually take way votes mostly from Biden as they're either liberals or former Dems... No way to think they hurt Trump more. Which conservative or former republican is running to stop Trump? FYI, no one cares about abortion or democracy shit except from democrats... Those issues won't resonate with independents who still view Biden as too old and incompetent. Biden is actually old and senile... If you haven't seen videos of him being forgetful, dementia - ridden and cranky then I can see your bias. I've actually watched alot of Biden clips I still can't find one of him stuttering before now. Using Haley's voters as a metric can be misleading...Majority of her voters are Biden's 2020 voters comprising of same never Trumpers and democrats. Exit polls showed they approved of Biden and plan on voting for him again... They just voted to troll the primary. They wouldn't even vote for Haley in the general. Besides, majority of actual Republicans that voted for Haley would vote for Trump... Check Chris Sununu, Brian Kemp etc... They've endorsed him already. If you think non of the 30 percent Haley voters wouldn't vote for Trump then I have a mansion in the moon to sell to you... Only those that didn't vote for Trump either times would never vote for him lol... Even Haley would quietly cast her ballot for Trump . Trump only got 45 percent of republican votes in 2016 primaries and the media were growling on how he can never put the pieces back together. At last roughy 90 percent of repubs voted for him... Underestimate Trump at your own peril. He's not a walkover especially against this current Biden. Trump would give the little dissatisfied Republicans what they need (judges)... I bet he releases list of potential Supreme Court judges. Alito and Thomas would likely retire if Trump wins. Alot of people including myself might not like Trump's erratic behavior but I bet those Republicans understands what a Republican president would do regardless of whom. No Republican was expected to defeat Hillary Clinton in 2016... She was the strongest non-incumbent running, ever (you can look it up). Trump actually came and destroyed the map and her blue wall. He's messaging appealed to voters in the rust belt and that made him win. If you think a neocon/establishment republican would have won Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin against Hillary then you don't understand American politics well. Trump contributed to Hillary Clinton's unpopularity... She had her approval ratings in her 60s until she didn't. Polls has been showing that Trump would beat Biden in all battleground states even liberal pundits like Nate Silver, Nate Cohn, Nathaniel Ratkich attest to this... so I'm wondering where you're getting the data from. Which state(s) that Trump won in 2020 do you think Biden can win? 2 Likes |

PDPGuy:Jesse Ventura the famous wrestler and reform party former governor is a popular native Minnesotan to the core and very liberal too. He won with a little known party when no one thought he'd... He's just like Joe lieberman and Lowell Weicker of Connecticut. Minnesota is a weird state that tends to cast protest votes next to Michigan... He'll easily peel into Biden's electorate breaking off around 10 percent if he runs with RFK jnr. It'll likely be this third best state outside New Hampshire and Maine. 2 Likes 1 Share |
