No other candidate ever moved me like Trump does.

WARNING to all FReepers: There are some off-color words in these posts, so if you have delicate sensibilities, this thread is not for you. But it IS important to read for a variety of reasons. First off, this is a fairly young crowd of voters (hence the juicy language). Secondly, it might give you a bit of a lift, when you see the sheer number of 1st time voters. This thing has only been up 4 hours! You will also be surprised at how many self identify as former Obama voters.

These people who have a history of infrequent voting, if they ever voted at all, are the one the dems are targeting with this massive campaign of "Trump's done, Hillary already has it in the bag, don't bother voting..."

I'm praying that these people don't let themselves be suppressed so easily.

I’m 31 and only voted I think once! For oboner though. :o(

But now it’s different. My lazy ass registered again, double checked that I was registered, found my polling place, actually walked to the polling place to make sure I knew how to get there and I’ve got Nov 8th marked on my calendar with alerts set on my phone starting 2 days early.

Honestly, I didn’t care about voting until I got out of the military.
I’m rabidly religious about it since.

If you and your friends had gotten off your asses earlier, we wouldn't have had to put up with Obama.

But go ahead and commit yourself to vote. It's way past due that you do your civic duty./s

Well, I hope true. 4chan/pol/ is the same but notorious for trolling. Yes, I’m THAT jaded. And Hill has paid trolls on the net, currently.

The_Donald subreddit has been ground zero for much of this campaigns battles. They are a fervent crowd that have broken, or forced, many of the biggest issues to be covered, begrudgingly, by the media. Drudge and other movers, including Trump staffers and possibly his children, track its activities. I look to FR and The_ Donald if I want the latest info.

Yes, I posted about this Reddit site earlier today. A much younger crowd but I also noticed not jaded, negative and "Debbie Downer" as many people here on Free Republic. This crowd is brash, enthusiastic and optimistic for a Trump victory in four weeks.

Many of us could take lessons from these people. I've been here on Free Republic for just about 20 years and it gets harder to come here each day because of the "woe is me" "sky is falling" "all is lost" attitudes among the concern troll crowd - which make me sick to my stomach, to tell you the truth.

This defeatism simply does not exist on the "The_Donald" Reddit site.

Now I'm not going anywhere. I'm a monthly contributor and I intend to stick with this site to my dying day (which is hopefully still many, many years away). But it might do some of us good to at least lurk there once in a while and re-learn what a winning attitude is all about.

People like you are not polled, and assuming millions will vote for the first time for Trump that is good.

Also, because of social pressure millions won’t state in polls that they are voting for Trump.

Then there is the fact that Hillary books don’t sell even at a enormous discount.

Hillary draws 300 people to her rallies, while Trump sets records at many venues for breaking site records.

Will Hillary really have more votes on election day or is there many Trump advantages.
