No offense intended, but I’ve always had a rather low opinion of those who so proudly identify themselves as Independents when it comes to politics. I’ve always viewed them as someone who somehow sees themselves as being above those of us who commit to one party of the other. And I love how they declare themselves to be above our two-party system, simply claiming that always vote for the ‘best’ candidate regardless of party affiliation. Personally, I’ve always viewed these people as nothing more than Independent in name only. But it is every now and again that at least some of these people seem to experience a moment of political clarity.
Now, of course, whether or not they are able to
actually maintain that level of clarity remains to be seen, and to be honest
I’m not holding out much hope that they will be able to do so. The reason that
I bring any of this up has to do with a recent poll. You see, it was a latest
survey from The Economist/YouGov that found President Trump is leading among Independent
voters in a potential head-to-head matchup against Joey. The survey asked
respondents who they would vote for if the election were held today if the
choices were between Trump and Joey. In that scenario, Trump takes a four-point
lead among registered voters, 44 percent to Joey’s 40 percent support.
And yet, it’s a substantial percentage of these
sanctimonious, holier-than-thou nincompoops that still seems to prefer the
continuing shitshow that is Joey’s administration to a few so-called “mean tweets.”
These folks need to get their priorities straight for all our sakes. Meanwhile,
and quite predictably, it was most Democrats, 78 percent, that chose Joey and
most Republicans, 82 percent, that chose President Trump. However, President Trump
takes the lead among Independent voters, besting Joey by ten points, 38 percent
to Joey’s 28 percent. It was 21 percent of Independents who said they would not
vote, followed by 7 percent who said other.
The survey also asked respondents to reveal who they
believe would win the presidential election between President Trump and Joey,
regardless of their personal preference. It was 41 percent who said Joey would
win, compared to 40 percent who said President Trump. Republicans remain
slightly more confident in President Trump than Democrats are in Joey, as 73
percent of Republicans said President Trump would win, while 71 percent of
Democrats said the same of Joey. Independents also remain more confident in President
Trump, as 38 percent said Trump would win. It was 31 percent of Independents
chose Joey, and 31 percent who said they’re not sure.
The sane among us, regardless of political
affiliation, realize their lives were better when President Trump was in office
than they are under Joey. All the more reason for the Democrats to try to
prevent him from running. They know if President Trump does end up getting
re-re-elected much of what they are desperately trying to keep hidden may
finally be made to see the light of day. Desperation is the best way to
describe what the Democrats, and a good many RINOs, are feeling today. Democrats
are desperate to persuade his supporters that he is not fit to be president
while the RINOs are desperate to convince us that any one of them would be a
better choice.
Granted, polls that we’re
seeing this far out from the election can safely be described as being etched
in Jell-O. And clearly this slim lead, if it remains, will not be big enough to
negate the level of cheating on the part of Democrats that we all know is going
to happen. And I don’t care what anybody says, if you don’t vote, you’re part
of the problem. America is now hanging by a thread, where this country is today
compared to where it was roughly two and half years ago is nothing short of
astounding. And everything, and I mean every single thing, that has been done
to get us to this point has been done on purpose. All voters must realize that
and vote accordingly.
