White folks here in SE Louisiana are extra gloomy today. I think Hope Hicks testifying really put a damper on their last hope he might make it out of the trial without a charge.
One guy, after praising Putin(yeah this happens in day to day life trust me
), told me he was convinced Biden was getting reelected at this point. He looked like he lost his puppy, wife and paycheck at the same time admitting it.
I could have told him what anyone with sense knows. The minute jury selection began he was gone in the eyes of many voters who were undecided. The undecided are who have to be swayed. You lose them you can hang it up. If his base was enough he would have sailed to victory in 2020 with 0 issue. What's gonna happen in '24? They've anered a whole new segment of voters thanks to abortion via IVF and the repeal of Roe vs Wade.
What was Trump's greatest asset in 2016? His base? No. His charm? No. His perception as a successful businessman? No!
His greatest asset was nobody really knew him. They knew of him. They knew his clown behavior but it was something they looked at as a way to stand out. But when someone takes on the high profile job as President you get to know them. He is his own worst enemy through his behavior. They see it's not just an act. Dude really lacks leadership skills and is childish.
I look forward to the next round of polls.
