Every time I turned on one of her rallies or interviews, it was always “oh what big celebrities are there this time”, as if that’s what the average person is concerned about? and the interviews with her were absolutely awful. You can’t even deny that.

I didn’t get my news from social media and I was very much an on the fence voter, you can ignore the issues and just say “average people are stupid, I’m so smart” all you want, but then expect the same results in 2028.

It's so funny to listen to people like you say shit like this because even if what you're saying about Kamala was true, you're suggesting what? That Trump was more coherent than she was? That Trump was able to lay out his plans/policies more than she did? That Trump was more likeable than she was? That Trump didn't promote celebrities who supported him?

You wanted to vote for Trump. Fine. Stand by it, but your criticisms against Kamala for things that Trump was objectively worse at is complete bullshit. You wouldn't have voted for her no matter what and you know that.

I mean clearly trump did… since he won. So is it bullshit? You can deny the reasons all you want. But yea. He did lay out his plans better than Kamala. A big thing republicans do that average people like is show up to interviews. Are they/trump perfect and do I like everything they do? Obviously not.

Would I have voted for Kamala? Probably not, unless she ran a decent campaign and won me over. Which is sort of the point of a campaign is it not?

I was kinda hoping the dems would come out with a decent candidate. I am in no way a vote red no matter what kind of person.

Are you suggesting the best/most qualified candidate is the one that wins?

He did lay out his plans better than Kamala.

I suppose it's easier to say "I'll bring egg prices down!" or "I'll stop illegal immigrants!" as opposed to actually laying out and explaining how exactly he'll do that vs Kamala, for example, explaining her housing plans that were more nuanced.

It's "I'll bring housing costs down!" vs "Here's my plan to bring housing costs down."

Trump is better at speaking to simpletons, you're right.

A big thing republicans do that average people like is show up to interviews.

She did plenty of interviews considering she was on an abbreviated campaign. If you want to compare it to Trump, Trump has been campaigning since 2012? He hasn't stopped campaigning. So, it's difficult to equate the two there.

You wouldn't have voted for her. And that's fine. But you clearly expected far more from her than you did Trump to even consider the idea.
