I’ve decided undecided voters have low critical thinking skills and/or are attention seekers

Anyone still claiming to be undecided about Donald Trump in 2024 is full of shit

I cannot understand these wishy-washy, fencing idiots. Do they live in caves? Not just any caves either, But the one Plato talks about? Seriously WTF is wrong with these people. If you don't know what Trump stands for after all of these years, and can't understand what Harris is about, then you seriously should just smack yourself in the face with a cast iron skillet - repeatedly - until either you smash the stupid out of yourself or fall into a coma. I honestly don't care which.

That's essentially what I told my wife last night. If you're undecided and watched the debate and still are undecided, just admit you're a Trump voter.

Right, they gray area is so small, it's practically just a blend line for the huge expanse of black and white on the table for this election.

If you saw that debate and came out with, "Hmm, but which one should I vote for?", just say you're voting for Trump. Say that shit with your chest, loud and proud. I wanna know what places to avoid.

Why did you cross that last line out? He did say that.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I meant it more as an aside. Like, "He's said something truly ridiculous, how could you vote for him?"

Here’s a useful tool for your tool belt, you can borrow mine: ()

Lmao, thank you

Undecided voters don’t matter in this election. There’s so few of them, and most of them are just people who are too scared to say they support Trump.

This election will be decided by turnout.

I swear, you could have Hitler reincarnate with Himmler as vice president looking exactly the same as how they looked like in WW2 and use the exact same rhetoric, and the current undecided voters would still be equally clueless on who to vote for, assuming they're actually undecided and not "closeted conservative voter who doesn't want to look bad".

I know that there are a number of people who simply don't pay attention and suddenly realize that they have no idea what's going on when election time comes around. THEY are the undecided voters.

What you see in the media, however, does not convince me that they are genuinely undecided. I believe that a lot of people claim it for the attention they get. Then we have examples of people pretending even though they are actually part of someone's campaign.

I find it hard to believe in these circumstances there are truly undecided. trump was president for four years and there was so much crazy. If someone saw and agree if it was crazy I can't see them voting for him and if someone did not see or did not agree it was crazy then I think its likely they will vote for him.

Undecided to being a racist nazi you mean. I don’t see how a true republican can support such a divisive felony candidate.
