You Can’t Grow Compassion…

It’s easy to say all Trump cares about anymore is winning re-election. Even if it’s just to “win”. And it is true. So between now and Election Day he’s just going to do whatever his gut tells him will give him the best shot.

And forget about polls right now, most of which show Biden with a widening lead. Pollsters are going to poll. It’s way too early for polls to mean very much of anything.

Also, we think it could go either way this time on people “secretly” voting for a candidate they’d never publicly admit to supporting:

  • We can still see some people out there who’d never admit to a pollster they’re voting for Trump, but then do. That’s what happened in 2016. We can see that happening again if white people — who would probably say they’re not racist — feel something like this comment we lifted off our Twitter feed: “People were locked in their homes for 3 months, now they’re further locked in their homes”. Trump’s already exploiting that line of thinking, Tweeting Democrats are promoting “Crime, especially against you and your family”. In fact, these are the only voices he heeds. He’s not even pretending anymore.
  • We can also see some people out there who’ll never admit to a pollster…
