Republicans Are Refusing To Vote Because They Believe The Blue Wave
Internal polling from GOP strategists is revealing a massive problem for their party. Republicans are not interested in voting, because they believe the blue wave is ‘fake news.’
The New York Times reported:
America First Action, a political committee aligned with Mr. Trump, conducted a series of focus groups over the summer and concluded the party had a severe voter-turnout problem, brought on in part by contentment about the economy and a refusal by Republicans to believe that Democrats could actually win the midterm elections.
Conservative-leaning voters in the study routinely dismissed the possibility of a Democratic wave election, with some describing the prospect as “fake news,” said an official familiar with the research, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the data was not intended to be disclosed. Breaking that attitude of complacency is now the Republicans’ top priority, far more than wooing moderates with gentler messaging about economic growth.
Republicans Are Following Trump Down The Fake News Rabbit Hole Delusion
Trump has been telling his cult of followers that the blue wave is fake news and that a red wave is coming to save them in November. The truth is that there is no evidence of a red wave. There is a mountain of election data proving that Democratic voter enthusiasm is very high and that Republicans have trouble getting their voters to show up on election day.
