Half of registered voters turned out last year and he won roughly half of that. I fully expect 2026 to be a repeat of 2018.

You can expect it, but I count on nothing from American voters and never will again. I didn't expect them to elect a convicted felon.

I’m an American voter who expected a LOT better from my fellow citizens. And especially the news outlets that were tired of a boring effective Dem and wanted more FDJT drama by sanewashing that man and undermining Biden’s policy accomplishments.

Apparently the price of eggs was worth putting that convicted felon back in office even though prices are going to continue going up.

The Bernie Bros and single issue voters like the Free Palestine movement did not help either.

I think Bernie was fine during the campaign. The rot he's pushed since then is bad, though.
