The fixation on duration is truly bizarre here. It seem it’s nothing but another reason to dismiss something you don’t agree with. But please do let me know at what point I’m allowed to have an opinion that, coincidentally. seems to be shared with many people who have been signed up as long as I’ve been reading here. Do let me know what the rule is there.

I’m not apathetic because of a “silly social media post”. Voters are because they see non stop childish behavior and nothing that focuses on the issues they face day in and day out. Trump won on affordability. No matter what someone might want to say it hasn’t really gotten any better for most people. Food costs are still up. Energy has shot back up. Instead of doing what is needed for that we get “Nah all that is way down” like we can’t see it with our own damn eyes.

Get out the vote? Not happening until people feel like anything that matters to them matters to the people up top.

Great! Totally agree.

So in our neck of the woods, we'll work to "get out the vote."

In your neck of the woods, you can work to "get out the vote."

Only one question remains for any of us. For which candidates/party will we each "get out the vote." We'll be getting out the vote for Republicans. Hope you will too.

Excuse that I did not address your point. I am not "fixated," though perhaps some might be. For new-to-me monikers, I regularly go to an About page -- sometimes informative, and sometimes blank excepting date of joining -- to learn about an individual.

Your moniker was new to me. Some of recent have also been new to me, even on from 1998! So take no offence. I did write, "...welcome to FR -- "Since Jul 7, 2026" Almost three months now. Good for you."

I'm tired of defending stupid posts by Trump, even to friends who are fellow republicans. Its childish acts. Look at the reactions on FR, how do you think independent voters react to these posts? We are going to get killed in the midterms.
