So where does America as leader of the free world sit with American citizens these days? Is it expected or is there preference for ‘America first’. I ask because my own view is that we need you at the forefront of global challenges like climate change. it will be fascinating seeing Bidens foreign policy unfold.fuck off extraneous involvement in other nations’ affairs
Your conservatives are very different to oursSure — corporate tax rate, tough on China, buy American, fuck off extraneous involvement in other nations’ affairs — plenty of “business” reasons. And then there’s the “he speaks his mind” crowd; the “he’s not a politician” crowd; the “he loves guns and the flag” crowd. I mean this is all bullshit and ignores the negative consequences of his foci but I know plenty of otherwise smart people who supported him in 16 (but FAR fewer in 20).
But there’s also the dynamic that straight white male liberals are perceived as “weak” by straight white, male conservatives, who also perceive themselves as “strong”. SWMCs expect non-white, non-male and non-straight folks to vote for Democrats, but assume their friends, family, colleagues — their circle — is “strong”, and will vote Republican. It’s a given. That’s inherent and candidate-neutral. They are voting strictly party not person.
It won’t shock people to hear that Trump is very far away from Christianity, but people don’t understand how much he either doesn’t get it or is too arrogant to care.To the more well informed members on here.
How much did the religious vote sway the vote to Biden ?
Watching the news channels in the weeks leading up to the election I noted quite a few church leaders coming out in support of Biden, especially in Georgia.
I thought when Trump was elected he got a lot of the christian votes , did they leave him this time around ?
