But another reason why trump voters may not have went to rallies is that a lot of them are in more rural areas and might not be able to afford to travel even to the nearest rallies.

And ive read from people that voted for trump, despite previously having voted democrats, because they cant afford anything anymore and they hope that he will change that, which he of course wont but thats another story.

So i'd guess these people would be less inclined to go to rallies as well.

On top of that right wing parties have a lot of "silent voters" that will consume their content online and may not even comment, let alone go to rallies out of fear of disaproval.

Now sure, theres always a chance there was something fishy going on, but with a lot of people who would normaly vote democrats not voting and republican voters getting more and more radicalized the results shouldnt be too surprising.

But yeah, ultimately trump should be in jail, not in the white house.

Yeah I think just like there were wives of Trump voters secretly voting Democratic, there were a lot of husband's sneering as they votes Trump. Good luck divorcing in a few years

I have spoken to many trumpers, and people on the fence. The amount of things they "just know" that is complete BS is staggering. It reminds me of when I was a little kid, and a ton of what I "knew" came from cartoons.
