The insurgent energy of a 2016 Trump rally is gone. But the enemies are the same, and that may be all that matters.
minus-squarez3rOR0nelinkfedilinkarrow-up15·9 months agoWhat’s sad is I don’t think this means that Trump doesn’t have their vote, it’s just this isn’t an election where people can be convinced. Nobody’s sitting on the fence on this one going, “God, I’m so conflicted, both candidates speak to my values. It’s such a hard choice.” Everybody has made their decision already and so even if you’re a Trump supporter, it’s more like “yeah, gonna vote for him…anyways.”
