It won't matter to the partisans. But the partisans won't decide who wins.
That depends on turnout, to some extent. If there's enormous partisan turnout on one side and very low on the other, then it doesn't much matter what independents do.
I could see there being a pretty big enthusiasm gap this year. Vance is probably better from that standpoint than Little Marco would have been.
Yes, this is where Trump brilliantly disrupted American Political Science 101. For decades high voter turnout meant Ds win. Not any more.
It worked last time, but I don't think people are as animatedly anti-Trump as they were then. It's hard to stay at 11 for eight straight years.
We will see how it turns out. This is only the beginning lol
He did have an interesting election and term last time. He didnt really have to fight anyone significant last time.
There are a lot of people who arent impressed with biden or trump. Guess we will have to see how active the voters will be this election.
Who will be deciding?
The center independents, know as the silent majority.
Silent majority? I am going to have to look that up.
It is an old political term. Roughly 51% of the voting public is registered as independent. 26 % Republican and about 23 Dem. You only hear from the parties. Think about it.
Interesting! That 51% might be swaying things this time!
Who else was considered?
Did he pick the JD Vance guy? Tucker Carlson would be an interesting pick...
yes
What are your thoughts on that?
I think Trump's base was going to be happy with whomever he picked, so I don't think it mattered. I think Tucker Carlson would have been a huge deal.
I feel this is pretty true. He is the main person that people want. I just feel with Carlson, he would have added even more exposure.
No doubt. Makes me wonder why he didn't pick him.
I have plenty of disagreement with Tucker, but he is a really formidable speaker. I would not want to be campaigning against him.
Oh man. Imagine his debates vs. name em.
I know, right. He is quick on the uptake.
I might still take him over the others who were being seriously considered, but that article definitely raises some concerns.
