In an unexpected twist, Rep. Dean Phillips spilled the beans on his first-ever visit to a Donald Trump rally during a recent CNN appearance. Picture this: a chilly night, a line of passionate people, and an event that made him think, "Why not?" What followed was not just a political experience but a genuine human connection.

Phillips encountered around 50 Trump supporters, each person more than just a face in the crowd. They were thoughtful, hospitable, and friendly—qualities that stood out against the backdrop of frustration with being overlooked. A diverse mix of people, many attending a Trump event for the first time, left Phillips with a revelation.

Un-possible, we’ve been told MAGA supporters are the worst people in the world. Gun totting racist domestic terrorists that will kill anyone defending “democracy” at the drop of the hat.

Yikes… DNC Results (32% reporting):

Biden 27.4%
Write in 43.0%
Phillips 24%
Williamson 4.8%
Other .7%

I know the it was an uncontested race, and I know that a lot of Dems crossed over to vote for Haley, but almost 3/4 of the Dem votes have gone to someone other than Biden, and almost half were write ins.

Well, he did almost as well as Biden.

Our politicians are so out of touch with reality and those they claim to represent that it’s a travesty.

Hope he is ignored, I like dems being completely delusional and thinking the majority agrees with them

Is the world turning upside down? First John Cornyn, & now a Democrat. I’ve got to say, it brings out the proceed with caution senses in me.

You make me think. I certainly accept that the “press” lies to us continually.

Maybe they lie to the leadership, and even more so.

It would almost be ironic if most of America’s problem was allowing itself to NOT have a Free Press. There are many things which we have, stupidly, negated of the Founders’ design, but this oversight may be the most damaging.

I’m assuming “Write Ins” refers to write-ins other than Biden. But I could be wrong.

Imagine that, the psychopaths running DC have overlooked all the decent folks in America who are frustratedd that the psychopaths are running America into the ground. Damned MAGA deplorables. Just go away so we can have open borders and WAR!

Yeah—it is confusing for sure.

Biden was a write-in.

Did they pull his name out manually?

I think so. My understanding is that he wasn’t listed on the ballot, so anyone voting for him had to manually write his name on the ballot. People could also write in other people, not on the ballot, which many did, apparently - even more so than Biden.

Niki is going the Liz Cheney route. Dems hate Trump.

Ever been to a Trump rally?

You’ll find plenty of Donald Dems there.
