I don't care why they voted for Trump and will vote for him again...and I am tired of msm giving them any kind of legitimacy...what I do understand is they hate and Trump gives voice to their hate...ok, now go away...

I think it is encouraging that many whites who were attracted to Trump's populist appeal are not voting for him again.

I don’t believe they are all lying, but I can see about 60% just to get attention....if you hear some of them talk you can tell that they are right wingers and there is no way they ever voted for Obama

Even 1/3 of them breaking to Biden is pretty big.

That said, hard to believe that all of the 2/3 actually voted BHO.

do they take a cognitive test before getting their position on the panel? How much are they paid, and is it a lifetime gig? Do they stay 'swing'? What else can they not make up their mind about? Coke or Pepsi?

Right before they fucking die and get pitch forked repeatedly for the rest of eternity. Fuck their whole whatever and fuck the media for playing along with the farce.
