Trump received 74 million votes.
The NRA, which has proven to be infiltrated by russian assets has about 5.5M members so that’s almost 7% right there. https://www.finance.senate.gov/ranking-members-news/wyden-unveils-report-on-nra-ties-to-russia-findings-show-nra-misled-public-about-2015-moscow-trip#:~:text=New evidence that NRA insiders may have violated U.S. sanctions,pursuit of personal business opportunities.
In 2021 there were about 20M users of Parler which amplified russian propaganda: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jemimamcevoy/2020/10/01/report-fbi-catches-another-russian-made-fake-news-site-targeting-us-voters/
There’s probably some overlap, but with just two instances we’ve seen how over 20-25M right wingers (1 out of 3 trump voters) are subject to russian propaganda.
“Then don’t get abortions” unless you are a Republican. Cuz then it is something you can just pray about and your side won’t be criticial at all. The OP saying that values are different is rarely correct. It is identity. And some people have so strongly identified with being a conservative/republican/maga that nothing about values will change their voting. I can’t believe we are still talking about a difference in morals after years of Trump going against every value the right has claimed to hold. Clearly it is not about values.
Idk. Maybe. I think Biden has done a great job if you look at his policies, and I would have hoped people were excited about them. I take your comment to say that people are fooled into having more enthusiasm for a candidate with the same policies just becase a different face has been put on them. But there can be other reasons for the enthusiasm. For example, maybe people believe she will do a better job since she is younger and more energetic. And those people think a younger, more energetic candidate makes for a better President even while holding the same political views. If that gets people excited, fine. It may be from being fickle and fooled or may be from a realistic view of how leaders impact the group and how a younger leader could be better.
If it didn’t help other global powers, i.e. Russia, I’d say this is a reason to have New England be it’s own country.
