Even democrat voters who are logical thinkers are verbalizing that they now would rather have Trump back in office through all of this even if they still do not like his personality. Also had liberal friends say that Trump would not be allowing supply chain problems to continue. He would have the trucking industry rolling back by now. But it took my liberal friends job problem to get them to start verbalizing what they have felt for awhile.

Our situation is to a point that the only voters democrats may be able to count on in the future are violent people, crimminals, people who are not here legal, drug pushers/users and life time welfare receivers.
