    CRAZY RIGHT. But seriously, three people that I personally know voted for Biden in 2020, now are thinking about not voting? That’s a lot. It’s also who these people are that gets me, they are your run of the mill city democrats. Not terminally online Twitter followers eating antibiden propaganda.

      I mean your sample is not really representative of the entire US population, so who knows what’s going to happen. I personally know no one who is not going to vote because, that would just be stupid to not participate in the democratic process.

      A person’s opinion does not matter if they do not vote, at least to those in power. 200 million people could not vote ‘in protest’. Doesn’t matter. Just means it’s that much easier for a bad candidate to take power and gain more control of the executive, legislative, and judical branches of govt that controls many aspects of our lives.

        But what are the chances that one person hangs out with three people who have similar opinions? Sounds impossible if you ask me.

      On the other hand, there are a lot of Republicans, especially moderates and Republican-leaning independents, who are not going to go vote for Trump if he’s the nominee.

      Yeah, believe it or not, there are moderate Republicans.
