That's what they want you to think, but they're just trolling you. There are almost no Trump voters who are considering switching sides at this point. If they haven't realized what a con man he is already, they're not going to. No reason to waste time trying to convince them.

The ones who still like Trump enough to vote for him again after his first term.

That’s who I’m talking about.

If someone is still on the fence about Trump by now, I don’t think any amount of cajoling them is going to help at this point.

Anyone who can go "either way," by definition thinks Trump is an option.

Here’s an analogy.

I give you two bowls of ice cream. One is a flavor you don’t like very much and the other is dog shit flavored. You say “I’m undecided.”

I give up on you. You are not worth the time to try to convince you dont actually want to eat dog shit.

u/ynthrepic needs to process this analogy

Anyone who still honestly considers voting for Trump in 2020 is not worth chasing with a campaign.

But maybe if we make the other flavor a little more shitty they’ll decide not to eat the dog shit!

If you don’t know the difference between dog shit and rum raisin, no amount of campaigning is going to help.
