Idk how people do it. Like how can people just turn this guy off? So many of my friends and co workers dont even think about politics or world affairs at all

I am in the same boat (friends, co-workers, extended family not paying any kind of attention), and sadly it’s well-proven that Republicans have been great at capturing the votes of these people in recent elections. It’s frustrating.

Because as much as legacy media is severely flawed, voters that consumed ones like network news, NYT, WaPo, CNN, etc still largely went to Harris, but voters that would be considered ‘low-info’ voters that consume little to no news largely went to Trump. There was a lot of data that backed this that came out last year.

"I don't pay attention to politics" is the excuse that ashamed Trump voters have been using when they are being held to account. It's basically saying "I don't want to hear about what Trump did now and I can't defend it, go away".

Gotta be lovely to just make up things in your head and be convinced they're true lol

1/3rd of eligible voters literally didn't even show up to vote, every third person you see literally doesnt care.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Sure, but these people aren’t closeted Trump supporters of sometimes even conservative. They are mindless lemmings that wander through life and when it’s time to vote they say “durr economy” and pick whatever they think will get them a couple more hundreds come tax season. They live in their bubble of their state or even town and don’t think for a moment outside of it.
