Their votes are garbage but not the people.

No the people who vote for Trump are garbage as well. Garbage all the way. I will vote for Harris; but disagree with her stance. I get why she did it but fuck Mega she not going win their votes. My Trumper neighbor just yesterday said only reason anyobe voting for her is because she is a N word woman.

Keep in mind he knows I support Harris and will vote for her tomorrow. He even asked if I was voting early. Isaid yes sir and for Harris. He is a racist, but he didn't attack me for my decision so I got that going for me. What worries me is his wife works at the polling station.

I have huge fear that Trump going steal this election and he has enough support to do so. Lets fucking vote all for Harris make it so large a gap he can't steal it.

They are much worse than garbage. They are fascists. Which is essentially the worst thing you can be.

If Harris wins you might want to lay low for awhile in case this guy does decide to attack someone.

Also, if Trump wins, he'll eventually rile them up to harm anyone who didn't support him. Fascism do be like that.

No one is immune from propaganda. I see it as they're being tricked, at least those that I know

The people voting for Trump lack self-awareness, empathy, and critical thinking, but they are still humans.

Conservatives do not see non-conservatives as humans. You'll forgive me if I don't award them any humanity medals.
