My anti Trump friends and the anti Trump media keep telling me people that voted for Trump in 2016 are not voting for him in 2020. When I ask for examples they are pretty vague. Who are these mythical people? Can someone direct me to a non partisan poll or graph? I suppose he may have lost support among a few women but what about men? I’ve been a lurker here for years so please forgive me if this is not a good post. It’s my first.
Look at a poll for Independent voters.
According to the numbers I found, 46% of Independents voted for trump in 2016.
He has lost Independents. I'm an Independent. I can tell you that he has sent me and many Independents running from him and the republicans in horror.
The numbers I found are from the summer so they could be different but I found that 54% of independents say they definitely will not vote for trump under any circumstances. Only 33% now say they will vote for trump.
He has also lost women, especially white women. Which I'm also one. We women see that man stealing children and babies from parents, putting them in cages without even a toothbrush or bar of soap and we run from you republicans in total horror of what we see.
You see, we believe stealing a baby from a mother's arms is evil and monstrous. We won't vote for a monster like that. We see that and are horrified.
trump could lie his way through the 2016 election. He didn't have any political history. He does now. That history is horrifying to all decent and good people.
If you like what he has done, vote for him but you will be in the minority. Again.
You're no more an independent than I'm a leftist.
