Trump cruises, DeSantis flatlines in polling even after bombshell indictment
Three polls conducted after his second indictment show Trump in a comfortable first place.
Okay, but why do we care about polls as much now? Haven’t they been spectacularly wrong for the past few election cycles? Not all, but I definitely feel like the overall accuracy and reliability of most national and state polling has been exceptionally poor.
In any case, I’m not at all surprised that his supporters aren’t bothered by the indictments. It’s a cult. Like, actually.
You're viewing a single thread.
Let's see, on one side they get to chose between trump and desantis. On the other we have a corporate geriatric Dem and...well that's it. That side doesn't even get a choice. Fucking hell we've had some awful choices for president for decades.
Bold of you to assume there was ever anything better before that. Two hundred years of nearly all affluent establishment geriatric white guys, who ran against affluent establishment geriatric white guys.
But this guy's a Catholic. [Clutches pearls.]
There are a lot of historical things to bitch about as far as the ruling class, but out of 46 presidents, only Biden, trump, and reagan were above 70 while holding office. Well, I guess technically you could add Eisenhower, but he was 62 when elected. A good chunk of them where in their 40s or 50s when elected. We've never had this shit before. Shitty choices, sure. But not this shit.
The definition of 'old' has also shifted, though. Personally I don't care much how old a person are. I only care how old their ideas are.
Doesn't Biden have any contenders within the Dems?
Oh no, the DNC won't allow that to happen.
I don't think incumbent presidents ever have a real primary. Trump didn't for his second run in 2020. He only does now because he lost (can't think of another time the incumbent lost and ran again, so nothing to compare it to.)
Do they see him as an election winner? Or is he just dancing to their tune?
