Are poor people more likely to be taken in by the sloganeering and empty gestures of the Baby-trump* because they feel they have a limited future?

* The lawless, vile & creepy, gutless, failing, anti-American out-of-control vengeance-seeking victim-whining Baby-trump.

From what I've read, 'poor' people are more likely to vote Democrat than Republican. Or more than that, they don't vote.

The premise of this post is elitist anyway. The left should show solidarity with the less fortunate and also have an understanding of class politics.

Some people do vote against their own economic interests but trite insults like this won't really stop that.

@Burnley123 It's entirely possible the information you are [u]comfortable[/u] using is at least a decade old. In reality, the demographics have changed quite a bit regardless of your orientation.

I continue to question your credentials regarding "proper commentary." It seems you are mostly interested in avoiding anything [u]uncomfortable[/u] ever being said. I suspect that is one of your problems, but not the core one. Perhaps you are too invested in being liked. That's not a diagnosis (at this point), but just an initial theory.

No. It's just I know what I'm talking about. There is a difference between a researched and thought out-opinion and a dog barking at the moon. Just saying. 😂

@Burnley123 Beware of people who self-congratulate themselves on their self-professed skills. They usually are insecure dummies. 🤣 Just reminding... 😗

@MarkPaul Perhaps. And people who post inarticulate tirades on the Internet are never ever projecting.

@Burnley123 And... people [u]like you[/u] with hidden agendas and unresolved conflict are easy to spot by their know-it-all attitudes and condescending rambling fueled by their own self-defeating narcissism.

Burnley123 · 41-45, M

@MarkPaul I don't have a hidden agenda, apart from being bored. I shouldn't have engaged and I'm done.

@Burnley123 Okay, little man. Play well with others.
