Rex-Thanks so much for making it plain. Why else would someone vote for a failed businessman, cheater, liar, convicted fraudster, convicted rapist, cruel and disgusting person who tried to steal an election?

For those who don’t see the racism involved just imagine if Obama did any of the things Trump has done.
So sad that the Dems are sabotaging themselves. They’re panicking because they know that White Americans are more inclined to support Trump who will build on white supremacy.
Meanwhile, the lives of “others” will be seriously jeopardized. For anyone who knows our history of violence it’s terrifying that the majority of White voters are supporting an outright dictator wannabe.
Racism of course, add to that economic challenge. My own community and many others I have traveled through in the past several years are just out of business . The transition to the big box stores and the shut down during the pandemic just enhanced the decline in the faith and hope in rural communities. There is also another very important issue at play. The Iraq War. Many people believe that the standard operating procedure of either of our political parties cannot be trusted and are willing to to just chuck it all and elect any dumb charismatic charlatan that comes along. The new Maga knows this and is willing to shill these lies all the way to power.
Make that "corrupt and canny charismatic charlatan Christian Confederate" and mountebank, to boot!
OK. Enough fun. You are dead right about the failure of trust. Nothing much works without at least a plausible base of trust.
I would like to see the Democrats hold a real convention, including actual debates on important issues and open nominations, right out there in front of God and everybody. Isn't that the way to earn trust? The alleged concerns about inviting "chaos" are exaggerated. Let's trust the process.
Stop lumping white people with the deplorable who support trump! Most of my friends, family & acquaintances support President Biden and the fight to save our Democracy, and we are all White !!!
40% of white Americans are decent human beings. That’s a lot of people. I take you for your word that your friends and family are among the 40%. But 60% of white Americans are not decent human beings. That’s a lot more people. Nothing I said in any of my comments lumps all white people into the deplorable category. Just most of them.
