I just do not understand how anyone is on the fence about DJT… Like, they see this conviction and that’s what changes their mind? After everything else?

Gotta consider which fence we’re talking about. For some folks, the fact that he let his daughter marry a (((Kushner))) means he was just too Woke. For others, the fact that he got successfully convicted means he’s a big stupid loser. Some people just love an underdog and will vote for anyone who isn’t currently in office.
You have to keep in mind that “independent” doesn’t mean “in the middle of Democrats and Republicans”. In the same way people abandoned Hillary over the Comey Letter, I’m sure there’s a certain number of independents who are scared off of Trump entirely because they don’t like the idea of someone being a convicted felon.
You vastly overestimate how much the average person pays attention to anything political, and when they do hear something they just assume they’re all like that.
Not to mention the whataboutism.
My dad…Djt got convicted… But Bidens economy… And Ukraine. Not to mention that judge in the trial …
Like faux news talking points regurgitated.
The latest talking point from the crazed MAGA-sphere is, “but his inflation”. Never mind that inflation is way down, and going down. They parrot whatever elecits a negative emotion or anger in their fellow poorly educated cultists.
Never underestimate how uniformed people are.
Or how mean.
So many trump voters just want to hurt people they feel are less deserving than themselves.
Does it matter why they changed their minds though?
Anyone who votes against Trump and the GOP is making the correct decision and I’m glad they do, regardless of what it took to make them see that. It’s not easy to admit they were wrong and we need to make sure we’re encouraging and accepting of those that do.
Nope, doesn’t matter why, I’m just flabbergasted that people would still be like “hmmm I dunno, maybe this Trump guy is alright” after everything else. And I’m trying to imagine the psychology of a person that’s on the fence about him for this long.
It’s easier for me to understand the rabid fans and fascists than it is for me to understand those that are up in the air until now, so I was just throwing that out there.
