Can I Change My Vote? Trump Tweets 'Go Do it' as Google Searches Spike

Source: Newsweek

President Donald Trump has told people searching Google to ask if they can change their vote to "go do it," claiming they want to switch their support to him.

Trump commented after an apparent uptick in the search following the second debate between him and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

The incumbent Republican, lagging in the polls, suggested these searches refer to people who have already voted wanting to change it to him.

"Strongly Trending (Google) since immediately after the second debate is CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE? This refers changing it to me," Trump tweeted Tuesday morning.

They are MAGAts trying to create the impression of regretful Biden supporters. They are not real.

That every instance of someone wanting to change their vote to him...

Has the same validity of him claiming that ALL of the 3 MILLION votes he lost by were illegal.

The man-baby is fucking delusional.

it is more likely that more people would want to switch from Trump to Biden. Since the CNN video I saw where they talked to 10 undecided voters found that after the second debate, 7 now wanted to vote for Biden and the other 3 were still undecided, that also makes me think that most would want to switch to Biden.

Ignore it and work for a better America. Make calls, donate if you can, and help make the blue wave happen.
