    From what I’ve seen it’s people angry at the status quo and looking for a change in a desperate effort.

    This. Both the Biden and Harris campaign were focused on “it’s not actually that bad, but it’ll be worse under Trump”. And for a lot of people, it IS that bad. All they heard from Harris was that it will be more of the same, and the same isn’t working for a lot of Americans.

      Fair enough.

      But what is it they heard from Trump, then? I can not understand Americans. They vote for a felon who can not make a coherent sentence. What kind of change they expect, exactly?

      I mean, what kind of change a black person who voted from Trump expects, for example? I truly can not comprehend.

        From what I gather, Trump has said basically everything in response to stuff, and people selectively hear or social media just filters through the message from him they want to hear.

        Some of the stunts like swaying to music for 30 minutes and play-acting a McDonald’s worker make him look a bit cute and silly, but Harris isn’t held to even the same dimension of standards – by media, by voters and even by her own supporters.

        There are hundreds of things Trump has done that would have tanked any other person’s campaign in the last 60 years. But his case is that he would do all of these things to somehow fix the country. He is selling fake snake oil solutions and people bought it hook line and sinker again.
