  1. IDK. A lot of Haley voters were like me, they just voted for her to vote against him and have no intention of voting for him in Nov.

  2. You’d think losing by 7 million popular votes that the next time around you might try to be more inclusive. Nope, burn down the bridge and hope enough of your team crossed in time.

  4. Haley demonstrated that large numbers of Republicans want an alternative.

    It’s like what Bernie Sanders’ candidacy meant for Hillary Clinton. Except Hillary responded by moving a bit in their direction to win those voters. Trump acts like Haley voters betrayed him and isn’t making any effort to bring them over.

  5. We just need enough GOP voters to actually follow through with this so it tips the scales in Biden’s favor.

  6. And they won’t vote for him. Go vote in November, and use the realities of his ongoing performance to bolster others to vote against Donald Trump in November.

    We are closer to the point where social proof will tilt against him as more antagonism stresses his allies and forces him into a smaller box. Many folks in the United States have had to fight their families and friends over this man and soon, many of his supporters will begin to memory hole their support and/or seek safe harbor. We can use this time to speak louder about the threat of Russian asset Donald Trump, while admonishing those who support his anti-American agenda and being patient with those who realize their mistakes and begin to come around.

    The good guys are benevolent, and we have to remember that. The means justify the end.

  7. So many people I know, while anecdotal, have embraced a nihilistic nothing matters attitude. If pressed they’ll eventually say “Biden, I guess.” I’ll take that as a win, lol.

  8. They don’t want to. But they will. Republicans fall in line. It’s in their nature to submit to the authority figure, in this case Trump. He’s the head of the party.

  9. Do not fall for this. He may very well have a problem, but history has shown again and again that Republicans always come home and vote for their nominee.

    It is going to take a tremendous amount of work to defeat Trump, to defeat MAGA, and to limit GOP power all over the country. You have got to start pitching in if you have not already. Volunteer, donate, convince others to vote, whatever. There are tons of opportunities to help beat the GOP at /r/voteDEM if you are interested. Just don’t sit there and post from now until November. We need all hands on deck.

  10. But…they will. We have to stop pretending that they won’t.

  11. But they are republicans, so they will fall in line and vote for him.

  12. Millions of GOP voters will say they hate him but they’ll vote for him all the same. Never trust that they will do the right thing.

  13. I don’t like the message of Trump struggling. It puts democrats at ease and makes us think we can vote 3rd party or not vote at all. He’s a threat to the USA and I don’t want him to have a chance.

  14. And yet they still will. EVERYONE WHO DOESNT WHAT THIS SHIT STAIN TO BE IN CONTROL OF THE COUNTRY NEEDS TO VOTE

  15. Throughout history, most political parties have had the common sense not to nominate someone who has lost the popular vote twice.

  16. Most will end up voting for him.

    Hopefully some won’t, and it won’t take many in Georgia/michigan/wisconsin/pa to make a difference

  18. My MIL hates Trump. She doesn’t “want” him. But she’ll convince herself she isn’t voting for “him” but she’s voting “party” and she’ll check Trump’s name on the ballot.

  19. My parents have voted in ever election my entire life. They always voted republican.

    In 2016 I refused to vote because I was a stupid ass who hadn’t educated myself on the importance. I told my parents as much and they scolded me for not voting at all. I explained I didn’t feel either deserved my vote (again I was a dummy) and they shot it down.

    I just had a call with my parents not a few days ago. My mother told me they likely wouldn’t vote as they don’t like either candidate. I cannot express the physical feeling of irony that swept over my body…

  20. Imagine how stupid someone would have to be vote for Donald Trump.

  22. He’s arguably the most unlikeable person in US history. It’s like an idiot test – if you like him, you’re an idiot.

  24. Respectfully, ignore all articles like this. Please, for the love of democracy, register to vote, check your registration, and then VOTE!!!

    It’s never been easier to vote (despite efforts to shut it down).

    You resgister right now and access everything else you need here:

  25. So don’t. Vote for the other old guy. I have family that are registered republicans that voted for Biden last cycle because they couldn’t stand to vote for Trump. Just because you’re registered to a party, doesn’t mean you owe that party your vote.

  26. Trump is still bleeding 20-30% of republicans. I was watching polls yesterday for tons of places. I saw Trump winning with a total of 70-79%.

    This means almost 1 in 3 red voters are voting in another candidate. Whether it be Christie, Vivek , or Haley. He isn’t getting solid support down the ticket. I think Biden needs to focus on swing states and NC.

  27. He’s not running for office, he’s running from the law
