What a scary beast US politics is.
Trump throws out so much with that small part fact, small part believable and turns it into a monster and the crowds lap it up. Arguing against it doesn't get much footing. Ignoring it and releasing policies doesn't get much footing. Pointing out the hypocrisy also doesn't seem to do much (eg Trump on Vance - VPs aren't important and don't do much. Trump on Harris - what an appalling VP - she hasn't done anything except stuff up immigration and voting for her would be 4 years of the same).
I have been watching a few Democrat you tubers until recently and their criticisms of Trump are often trivial and repeated so often that it becomes boring - but they have followers of 1mil+.
I have tried to watch a couple of GOP you tubers but really struggle to get past the name calling and vitriol that is spoken - happy to watch a few to get an idea if anyone can recommend one!
GOP is a very divisive party, while the Democrats tune is why can't we all get along and work together.
I don't really follow the US issues that deeply, but we know Trumps character, we don't really know Harris'. I think Harris may be less bad, however, I wouldn't be surprised if Trump won. Vance is a nuff nuff and Walz sounds like a good idea, but hasn't really said much to give credence to the good idea.
