      A friend's 76 year old father is a registered Republican who has never voted for a Democratic presidential candidate in his life. This year he's voting for Biden.

      I know many people that didn't vote for Trump in 2016 that are voting for him this time. Myself included.

      I'm a #1 China, #2 Economy, #3 Wokeism, issue voter. Trump's better on all 3 of those IMO. China is so much more dangerous to civil rights and freedom than anything Trump might tweet.

      I agree with you, but what you need to resist China is a strong, well-run state, and even Republicans agree, off the record, that Trump's White House has been an amateur hour. What you need to resist China is competence in the layer that Trump dismisses as the "deep state."

          We'll see. I find ultra-wealthy Republicans don't like him but the actual conservative voters love him. Even if it was amateur hour, he's done a lot of what he said he'd do. And the peace deals with Israel and the Middle East are incredibly promising.

          "he's done a lot of what he said he'd do"? Excuse me? repeal/replace Obamacare? bring back manufacturing? build a wall? *eliminate* federal debt? congressional term limits? He's done so little vs what a competent administration could accomplish.

          Manufacturing is not, and will not be the future. It is impossible to remain competitive in it. This is an idiotic point.

          Why should we listen to the people that weren't willing to stand up to China, or work to remove America from endless wars? What you're saying seems to make sense in the surface, but doesn't pass the sniff test, as there has been no history of standing up to China.

          For one, I think you’re missing the fact that much of what you perceive as “amateur hour” is the result of active insurrection against the Trump administration by the deep state

          For another: the deep state is the close minded monoculture that lies us into endless quagmires at the cost of millions of lives and trillions of dollars.
