and I'd argue that fundraising is more important in primary races and off-season races than in the more publicized midterm and presidential year races
take a look at FL polls for the primaries and the MI polls before Kid Rock dropped out, they blow the competitors in their own party by miles
referring to Rick Scott in FL btw
it's very easy for people like us to assume that the general population cares as much as we do
that's why we need to mold them
sure, Alabama and Virginia got quite a bit of attention on the national level, but still not nearly as much as the 2016 Presidential election did
I bet you my balls that if I asked 50 random people here in NYC who "Ralph Northam" is, at least 45 of them would have no clue
outside of VA, sure
it'd probably be over half not knowing in VA
also, I bet if you went to some random college in Virginia in 2017, and asked 50 of them who "Ralph Northam" was, most wouldn't know
yeah
it's very easy to forget how out of touch the typical normie is
(by the way, is anyone else annoyed at how /pol/ and 4channers in general refer to SJW leftists with dyed hair as "normies" ????)
real normies are apathetic to politics
SJW leftists have more acceptance in the media and in academia, sure
but in the general population they are anything but 'normal'
there's some overlap
there are a lot of 'normies' who voted for Trump but spend the vast majority of their time not even thinking about politics
Chads and Stacies who go to college in South Carolina are pretty 'normie' but Trump supporting at the same time
but not crazy about it like people on /pol/ are
likewise, I know a lot of 'normies' here in NYC who voted Hillary but aren't sperging out about Trump
I suppose, yeah, the typical normie who gets bombarded by media and entertainment 24 hours a day probably wouldn't be right wing though
In general, people don't care about Trump as much as you think
back in 2016, I asked my mom if she knew who Bernie Sanders was, and she said "oh...he's a businessman, right???"
kek
I wish twitter would shut the fuck about him for a second though
Twitter leftists are the fucking worst
Twitter overrepresents the American liberal/democrat population
there definitely has been a real paradigm shift in the fact that there's more people involved in politics nowadays
at least Tumblr leftists are so obviously odious, whereas Twitter leftists have an air of legitimacy
here's the thing,
the twitter system itself is so manipulative and scummy
most actions by the federal government don't affect everyday Americans
man I wish Nehlen's bill was in effect
yeah, Twitter is supposed to be an apolitical site (so was Tumblr, but Tumblr is supposed to be niche while Twitter is for everyone)
the only real change under Trump that people will notice is the tax cuts,
people might not realize why they have more money left to spend tho
lmao just wondering do you guys think Nehlen is going to beat Ryan during the primaries
no way
he'll lose by 70 point margin
so the fact that Twitter is so stacked in favor of leftists by giving all blue checkmarks to all these Literally Who's and shadowbanning wrongthink ....is worse than some obviously weird otherkin posting on Tumblr
