Like many, I have been disillusioned. Worse than after the 2016 elections. I was sent to sign petitions against nominating a new justice this year. I ignored it. Why bother? I heard angry comments on "how dare he (the turtle)" and the answer, of course, is because he can.
But on Nicole Wallace, John Heilemann (I think) said: now that he will get his supreme court justices, this reason for voting for him is no longer there so... perhaps many of his supporters won't bother.
There was actually a letter in the local paper from someone for whom the second amendment is the most important, does not trust Biden and Harris on that. But, he added, if a new justice would be added, than he will vote for Biden..
So, maybe.

(7,365 posts)His cult will vote for him en masse wearing their Maga shit and flaunting it like fools at a circle jerk. They will be only too happy to vote even if trump installed two more justices by the weekend. They will vote rest assured.

(47,470 posts)This is how he won: he enticed all the ones who thought, perhaps still think that they are left behind. He attracted many who disliked Hillary, who thought that she and the DNC stole from them. But now they know better. The ones who voted for him only to realise that the ACA was in danger are not going to do this again.
But, will have to see
