"Are these 15 million voters in the room with us right now?"

Ah yes - let's make fun of the fringe left conspiracy theorists but say nothing about the powerful conservatives eroding distrust in the system for the past decade.

I was told it was strictly a right wing thing. Huh.

On the left, its the fringe. On the right its coming from the very center of power.

The country is desperate for smart, connected people like yourself to be cleareyed about the difference in scale. I'll keep hoping you see the light! :)

Because the average voter doesn't think much deeper than the current cost of groceries, and Trump was the only other option thanks to influential conservatives being self-serving cowards. Since 2016 they've only revealed their true opinions briefly after Jan 6, or in private conversations (JD Vance's "America's Hitler", Tucker Carlson "I hate him passionately", etc etc). But they were all saying how much of a dangerous grifter he was in 2015.

They support the lies publicly to not attract his wrath. Some are even staying silent out of fear for their safety.

If that's the case, why did Kamala lose the popular vote?

Average American, i.e. non-fringe, is now right wing.
