First off I'll say don't worry, I'm on the Trump train through and through and nothing's going to stop me from voting.
I live in blue illinois and I'm 22...so obviously i have no fellow pedes in my life and I often fall out of the loop as I've rarely gotten on here due to stress or depression. So admittedly I'm a little confused on where we stand as of now. Everyone I talk to always makes it out a surefire Trump loss so I guess with all that's been going on between Covid and the media using it to make him look bad I've gotten that in my head. I mean...we're not gonna know until the election but admittedly I've just got this little rain cloud of doom over my shoulder.
I love the man...I really do and I'd think it a real shame to lose a president like Trump for a man the seething donkey riding troglodytes are settling for. Bless all of you and forgive me for my negativity and for my senseless babbling as I am very tired.

You have the weight of several trillion dollars in industry actively suppressing and threatening any pro-Trump opinion from being heard.
In 2016, I spoke to a lot of people quietly and respectfully and I was shocked at who was supporting Trump. People had to whisper to me. Near San Francisco, a Mexican immigrant who worked in a restaurant kitchen cried in front of me (we had a few drinks) and said "I can't vote, but if I could, I would vote Trump. Cartels destroyed my village. Whoever refused to move, they killed. The open border strengthens them.". It blew me away. It was a perspective I had never once heard represented in the media... In fact never to this day. The next day i txted several people that Trump was going to win. No one believed it, but election day felt so good.
It's 2020 and the cost of vocally supporting Trump has only gone UP. You can lose your friends (not real friends so fuck em), your job, or your life. And yet, more... far more people are expressing support for him. What does that tell you?
That's awful...they don't care about genuine human suffering. It's all about their narrative. That's what bothers me. All these people with horror stories getting brushed aside or hated on. Kids being attacked...it's disgusting. I became pro-Trump around the the time they'd accused Kavanuagh so I came in at a point a lot of people were particularly seething. I did see a drop in people wanting to associate with me but I didnt pay that no mind. My girlfriend was supportive and my mother didn't burn my place down so I survived. I'm not gonna be too sure of anything. I know regardless we are gonna fight like hell to keep him in and I think we can pull it off.
