Hard to imagine that almost everyone you contact is scared of Trump and thinks he’s mean.
Very, very odd.
I never said almost everyone I contact is scare of Trump and think’s he’s mean.
I gave a number, 4.5 out of 10, as a really reliable estimate of the number of people in my aunt’s church group who voted for Biden, due, in large part, to the idea that he is a nice guy and a good Catholic and Trump is mean.
And these are people who are comfortably middle class and should know better when it comes to Biden’s policies and their effect or their pocketbook, but still they emotionally react to, I believe, Trump’s manliness because it triggers them.
I am saying there are more of these types of people than many want to realize, more than 30%.
And this Ohio, which did go for Trump by 8 points. And these people live in voting precincts where the margin in Trump’s favor was about that or better.
And of the vets I have come in contact with, I would say about 25% have an issue with Trump but with their wives it is a bit more like 35%. So while not a large number, when you would expect that a particular cohort of people would be for Trump by about 85% more at least, you can see why I am dubious that Trump won by 70% and something like 55 to 60% is more realistic.
