...While most people know that Trump lies all the time, there is renewed focus on his lies in the last 2 or 3 days. Over and over again there is reporting on these lies. It could have an affect on a few people. We all know some who won't admit that Trump is a fool and totally incompetent. Trump's current lies, are concerning saving lives, and what he and his people did to deal with the virus. Those lies are so obvious that some will finally admit what a fool he is.
...Of course that number will be small, maybe 5 to 8 percent. Maybe less. But these are total hold outs to the truth about Donald Trump. Trump's handling of this life and death crises is full of lies and incompetence. As the media focuses on what he said this time and that time, Trump will lie some more. And, I honestly believe some will finally come around to the truth. These are long time Trump supporters who for the first time are opening their eyes to the obvious truth that Trump is a con artist and total liar.
... Some will say that that his true believers will never change their beliefs. We have already heard reports from our own members right here, that there are long time Trumpers/Republicans who will vote for the Democratic in Novembers election for the first time . Since it looks like Biden, there will be a lot more in my opinion. It is just a matter of time and it is happening right now.

(64,995 posts)70,000 people in 4 states put this idiot in this spot. If 36,000 change their mind, the EC won't save him.
That's 36k out of 120 million voters. 0.03%
So, 3% is gigantic.

They are a lost cause. Some are very defensive. Some are just less vocal about their love for Trump
But here's the thing Stuart, since taking office Trump has made zero friends and tons of enemies If the Dems stick together he is toast. Some ex Trumpets might not vote for him but still GOP down ballot
We need massive turn out
One exit poll in a Dem primary the question was what motivated you to vote? Anger was the top choice 82% That is powerful. Probably up to 96 now
