Because the people voting for him are idiots
Simple, MAGAts are brainwashed. They don’t notice the crazy. Nor the lies. Nor the fascism.
because trump supporters are fascists.
Mass media no longer fact checks.
1. Because no-one who will vote for him cares what his policies are as long as he hates foreigners and women.
2. Because the media almost never shows the true imbecility and constitution-bashing craziness of his rants and the right wing media never does.
3. Because many of his supporters really are pretty dumb and can’t see the difference between the GOP and a party that actually cares more about the country than being in power.
Kamala’s chances of winning are back down to just 55%. It’s as if Mark Robinson and the debate never happened. This country has a 13 day memory.
The top of the Democratic ticket is carrying the moral load of all the Democrats. Every day Democrats attacking Republicans instead of Trump directly has led us here.
That and quite a few other things: Lack of Fairness Doctrine, Citizens United, kowtowing to election deniers, voter apathy(did you know there’s MORE than a general election?), lack of civics education, and most importantly, fear. Fear of the future, of a vengeful God, a demonized populace, a rocky economy (Thanks, trickle down economics!), an acquiescence to researching problematic mental health while disregarding adapted mental health…
And to be quite honest, I need to get back to writing my story on this election cycle. Later!

Because his cult followers are Fu(ed in the head , if they weren’t no one would support him and he’d be sitting in a prison cell instead of running to destroy democracy America and the rule of law.
He panders to fear and hate. And there is a lot of fear and hate in America. 50% or more, depending on the polling.

Because the media always makes it out to be a horse race for profits
I’ve always had a glimmer of hope that the U.S. would come to its senses. That glimmer is fading, but i’m still hoping.
I read a headline news article today about how quietly Trump listened to the concerns of farmers. The author didn’t remind the reader of the way he screwed them last time. Just kept patting him on the back for listening and not being “bombastic.” Then the author went on to gloss over the fact that Trump, a citizen, threatened 200% tariffs on John Deere. All of this to say it’s so close because the press is a bunch of cowardly foot soldiers for him.
Racism
Because Trump’s followers are as xenophobic as him. And he has promised to make America “White “ again
It’s even because it reflects now sick our society has become.
Because most of followers only listen to Fox News. They don’t report any of this stuff.
People want chaos.
Racism
Trying to get folks motivated to vote.
He’s a psycho who should have been in jail for what he did in January-if that happened 100 years ago, he would’ve been shot or hung for treason
Because some supercollider malfunctioned in 2015 and split us off into this shitty parallel timeline where C-list reality tv star/ bigoted nepo grampa Donald Trump is worshipped and never has to answer for his many dangerous crimes.
It’s because the more the left are seen reacting to Trump, the funnier and more competent Trump’s supporters perceive him to be
The truth of the contents of his speech is of relatively little importance, compared to that speech’s ability to provoke a reaction in the left
The only thing that matters is that the left flips out over what he says, because the flip out is seen as proof of the MAGA core hypothesis, which is that the left viciously hates working class white men while simultaneously claiming that it’s the right that is actually hateful
I’m not trying to say anything about the truth or falsehood of that hypothesis, only pointing out that Trump’s strength rests on the perception that the left are hypocrites
Walked the dog tonight.. one republican neighbor said “hey.. he’s a republican” about the neighbor I get along with.. I said “hey, I can have a conversation with him because he doesn’t spout quanon bullshit.”
Because he talks to his followers through channels that are not moderated. He can say crazy shite on twitter and they’ll take it as gospel.
Stupid bigots!
It’s not. The polls are stupid and will be proven so on November 5th. Just vote.
It’s only close because media companies tell us its close.
If they told us it wasn’t close, it wouldn’t be close.
Because normal people simply can not comprehend how mind-numbingly stupid MAGA cult members are. There is virtually nothing that he can say or do that will ever turn them against him.
Because the people that are voting for him have been conditioned to hate any news outlet that isn’t right wing. They literally live in a bubble. I have family members that suffer from this. I was a hard core Fox News guy during the Obama/McCain election which was after I got out of the military. I know exactly what they’re thinking and what they’re being told.
Why did Fox News play a 10 minute video of Kamala laughing only hours after announcing ahead of was running?? In order to condition their cult members. Any MAGA you hear talking about her laugh is conditioned. They’re literally brain washed. They can’t see the forest through the trees.
He is hateful, and a lot of people see themselves in him. They want him to hurt the people they don’t like.
Because his followers are invested. They are in a “sunk cost” trap.
Admitting they were wrong about Donald Trump, will take -many- years for most of them, and some will go to their graves defending him, long after he is dead.
What I am seeing, is a whole lot of silence from the other side on social media, especially compared to 2016 and 2020, when they felt like they were going to win.
I have 4-5 nut jobs who are still posting Trump memes on the daily, but this is PEANUTS compared to past election cycles.
He’s cooked… and deep down, in their heart of hearts, all of his followers know it.
The media benefits from us thinking its close.
You ask why when you just said the reason.
I have bad news: around half of us in the U.S. are batshit crazy or just too stupid to think in terms of outcomes. If we survive his stupidity, we still have to survive that of our neighbors.
There are a lot of disgusting pigs out there.
It’s the poorly educated, gullible, and just plain pridefully ignorant.
“So why is the race still close?”
I’m inclined to believe that it simply comes down to wild inaccuracy of the polls.
Either American intellect is broken, or the polls are. But I’ve seen evidence of both.
Only one way out of this freak-show.
Everyone VOTE. VOTE. VOTE.
Racism folks. It is not complicated to figure out.
Because approximately 40% of this country doesn’t care how old, or senile, or insane, or stupid, or dangerous Trump is, nothing will stop them from voting for him.
Fox
Imagine if USA adopted the expanded ‘online harms act’ that Australia introduced.
Several decades of poor investment in American education
I truly believe that there can’t be too many people who are undecided if they want to vote for Trump or Kamala. They are too different. I think it all comes down to how many people they can mobilize to vote.
