Comment on Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race?
Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 3 months agoOP asked for an explanation of people voting Trump. Most people are explaining it wrong.
The explanation is that voters just don’t care what their politician has done. They vote for the color and don’t mention their faults.
What OP does not seem to realize, is that Democrat voters are no different than Republican voters in this selective outrage. So I put a mirror in front to make him understand.

Ahh, thank you for clarifying. Your point didn’t come across clearly the first time. Most people do only vote for their political party. I don’t agree that it is the prime reason, and there is probably analysis on key issues and primary involvement that could show why people don’t vote split tickets, but it would be nice if we could openly criticise candidates we plan to vote for without it being used destructively online. Tribalism is at it’s peak with social media.
