Friday, March 14, 2025

The nonstop chaos that President Donald Trump is delivering with his erratic tariff policies and spending cuts is already hurting many farmers who voted for him in the 2024 presidential election.

YES YOU DID.

You're a special kind of stupid if you think a billionaire is looking out for you.

Veterans protesting, farmers, senior citizens and CEOs becoming uneasy? Hmm, maybe the worm is starting to turn against DonOLD Dementia?:

Focus group: Trump swing voters in Michigan have buyers' remorse

Most Michigan swing voters in our latest Engagious/Sago focus groups said that although they voted for President Trump in November, they have objections, frustrations and fears about his behavior since he returned to power.

Zoom in: A focus group is not a statistically significant sample like a poll, but the voters' reactions suggest that Trump risks overplaying his mandate to reshape government, trade and international alliances.

I live in an area with big Farmers for Trump signs.

Not a single one has come down.

Nor will these farmers leave the republican party. Red counties will remain red. Some might turn a little pinker but they won't flip.

The GOP simply has to run someone next time that distances himself from the obvious policies that are hurting horribly right now and those folks will still show up on election day and vote for the GOP.

They're still voting for a republican next time......assuming we are talking about rural red county residents. The ag community.

"objections, frustrations, and fears".....okay, fair enough. But they are still voting for a republican next time.

Agreed, most farmers vote Republican and aren't swing voters. Unlike folks in the focus group who are and whose vote could flip:

"The online panels, conducted Tuesday night, were made up of Michigan voters who backed former President Biden in 2020 but switched to Trump last November. Eight were self-described independents, four were Republicans and one was a Democrat."

No, we're not necessarily. Sorry I confused the issue. I shouldn't have put the focus group info in this thread, so I started a new one about it.

Solid gold explanation for why Trump loves the poorly educated.

Understood. Agreed.

He loves you too, snoofy. You work hard for him.
