MSNBC is actually getting testimony from Biden supporters!

I haven't had too much to drink. I didn't eat any mushrooms and I'm not (that) high. But within the past hour they've actually featured Michigan voters who not only will vote for President Biden, but who enumerate his their reasons for backing him. I haven't seen this anywhere, even on MSNBC and I don't usually watch MSNBC election returns because I think Kornacki camera time is pointless, but here I am on a fluke completely amazed.

I mean it's only been three voters they talked to, but that's an indescribable increase from their past practice of talking to Biden bashers or magagopers.

I was preparing and then throwing down some delicious duck and carne asada tacos while this was going on so I was a little distracted, but what I recall was all the stuff normal people would say: Trump is a threat, Joe Biden not only prevents a Trump presidency, but also has done a tremendous job as prez. All that stuff (that I've never heard offered in MSNBC person-on-the-street interviews).

And that in the final if the Con was the nominee she would vote Biden because she grew up in a constitutional democracy and wants to continue living in one. That about says it all.

We’re seeing a serious trend in trump fatigue. The nation is finally catching up to where I’ve been since the 80s.

8. I didn't realize how triggered I am by these interviews because it is usually Trump voters

it brought tears to my eyes to see people who think like I do instead of bat shit crazy people.

I think it would make voters more likely to go to the polls.

More please!

9. It must've been a temporary static bleed-through from the truth and reality dimension we've all been searching for.

You don’t expect it and you don’t anticipate it happening again, but you keep checking your balance.

12. OK, I love these interviews because they show how ignorant Republican voters are.

I think that's the point.
The ones I've seen, the interviewers have pushed back when the Republican gives some asinine reasons for voting for Trump. Also asks them if they're ok with an autocracy type government.

But their rancid fascist propaganda is the substance of what they do.
