In his bid to retake the White House, few states hold as much promise forĀ Donald TrumpĀ as Michigan.
The former president has already won the state once and PresidentĀ Joe Biden, who reclaimed it for Democrats in 2020, isĀ confronting vulnerabilitiesĀ there as he seeks reelection. Trumpās campaign promises an aggressive play for Michigan as part of a robust swing-state strategy.
But, at least for now, those promises appear to be mostly talk. The Trump campaign and its partners at the Republican National Committee havenāt yet made significant general election investments in the state, according to Michigan Republican Party Chairman Pete Hoekstra. The national committee, he said, hasnāt transferred any money to the state party to help bolster its operations heading into the general election. There are no specific programs in place to court voters of color. And thereās no general election field staff in place.
The problem is that about 30% of the country could be described as political zombies, because thatās roughly the proportion of people who support him unquestioningly. And donāt forget all the other rich assholes who are trying to help him, for no other reason than they want his tax break handouts.
Another 33% are clueless or indifferent morons who donāt even vote
So vote
All of us here know that. Gotta go to the booger eating festival and spread the word there for whatever idiots somehow still havenāt figured out wtf is going on.
