    Interesting that 2/3rds think djt does not have the mental or cognitive health to be President and yet he polls near 50%. 16% of the people say yes, let’s vote for the guy who doesn’t have the brains to do the job.

    I guess it’s one of those “he hates what I hate” type situations

      Would you rather have an incompetent person you agree* with or a competent person you disagree with?

        If you believe in their worldview, that actually makes sense. Biden had similar voter patterns not so long ago. If you truly believe that “your side” is the good one (irrespective of the objective reality), then voting for an idiot who will at least pull in some “good” people is perfectly reasonable.

        I mean, we’re talking about a group who unironically believe that Harris is a communist dictator in waiting.

          It’s just crazy though because the modern Republican Party has become fascist. The very enemy that used to unite us all towards a better good against such evil.
