most of americans are selfish voters, not racist voters...though obviously a large contingent are just...stupid racist motherfuckers that have their brain rotted by too much Murdoch (my dad being one of them), the latter only decides elections when normies can't be bothered to show up.
most arent racist though (not enough for it to influence their voting choices), most are just selfish.... republicans promise the most ratfuckery, and are the most predictable in their backstabbing (being proud in their cruelty/stupidity). any business in a red state can just plan for maximum-pain, pay their bribes, and they're probably golden for the next 4 years.
democrats...they're fucking shifty and too fucking smart. the bernies/AOC/mamdani's are the exception not the rule. most US politicians in general are coastal (or local) elites that think their dick cures cancer or something (going off all the sexual harassment cases/connections to epstein)....they're 100% going to abuse their position to fuck others over, some petty fucking grudge they've held for years or maybe just because they're bored, who knows.
if you have to choose between playing with a bad liar or a good liar...playing against the bad liar is just a good business strategy. and that's all america is, a business, the bottom line is the only thing sacred here...
