69M Uninformed Horrible People....and Counting!

[ToraToraTora]

In another thread an ABer describes Trump voters as:

"....... uninformed to the point of absurdity or they are a horrible person. "

When there are that many could the observer be at fault in his assessment?

the vast vast majority of black americans voted for harris naomi. i said "about 90%" and the actual figure was 86%. happy? 

[Old_Geezer]

I don't believe any of the seven dwarves voted; nor did Snow White.

Not really, untitled.   The figures I found disagree with yours - and you know what 'they' say about statistics.

[New Judge]

“i got it from exit poll data 

i also said some were religious extremists or uninformed. i stand by that.”

Forgive me, I thought you meant each of them had to be all three.

So, when the final results are declared (there are three States still to give theirs) some 75m people will have voted Republican, so for Donald Trump. You are suggesting that each and every one of them must either be a religious loon, a neonazi or a white supremacist. 

Some of them might be any one of those; in fact it would be a fairly good bet to find some of those among 75m people. But all of them? You are saying that none of them might have voted that way simply because they see Donald Trump as their favoured choice as, in their opinion, they believe it will be best for themselves, their families or the country.

I haven’t added “ill-informed” into the equation because it was not in your original assertion. But I assume that your argument is that because they voted the way you believe they shouldn’t have, they are therefore necessarily ill-informed. Again, it is totally without foundation. 

Do you not see even the tiniest of flaws in that argument? It seems to me that anybody who does not cast their vote in the way you think they should must be labelled in some way. It's rather like saying anybody who voted Labour in the last General Election must be either a Communist or a Marxist (or "ill informed"). That is equally as perposterous as your contention because for many, if not most, it is simply their considered opinion of the options available - something which you seem unable to even consider.

Untitled is a Communist though, its clear from his ramblings.

you keep asking me the same question newjudge. As the OP notes "uninformed" was in my original assertion and yes i consider all of the 75 million people who voted in favour of trump to be one of those descriptors. i explained why on the original thread. 
 

your view seems to be that it is not possible for this to be true of such large numbers of people. what can i say other than i disagree?

[naomi24]

//i consider all of the 75 million people who voted in favour of trump to be one of those descriptors. //

 

That's barmy.

How do you know that statistic, does it say 'black' on the ballot paper ?

Do you believe everything you read, are you so gullible ? It would seem so.

do you understand what an exit poll is khandro?

Very strange stats emerging from the last 3 Us elections. in 2016 Trump polled 62M and Clinton 65M votes. Despite losing the popular vote Trump was elected. In 2020 Trump polled 74M and Biden a whopping 81M votes. This week Trump polled 72M and Harris 68M. Somewhere as if by magic 15M votes have disappeared into thin air in 4 years. Covid didn't get that many, so where did they go? The Democratic vote was down by 13M and the total votes by 15M in what is being called the most hotly contested election in American history. It stinks. Is it proof that there was a massive fraud perpertrated in 2020? If so who prevented it this year   ...   Musk?

Anybody else get the feeling that what happened this week would have happened instead in 2020 with no interference from the swamp? 

[Untitled]

lots of leftwing voters stayed home because of the democrats' policy on gaza togo

[Togo]

Don't talk drivel. 

[ynnafymmi]

Gaza,eh,Untitled.I got my posts removed recently when i mentioned Gaza.I was told i was derailing the thread.Watch it doesnt happen to you.

[Untitled]

it's true lol. you're the one spouting rubbish conspiracy theories. if the democrats could steal the election in 2020 why wouldn't they have just done it this time?

[naomi24]

Togo, 12.54.  It crossed my mind.

ha!

"Do you believe everything you read, are you so gullible ?"

Is it only what YOU read that's to be taken account of, Khandro?

oh just like a lot of people on AB ! -  but not the wise mods of course - not them

at first as a grammarian I wondered if TTT  objected to a plural subject ( er...They) and a singular predicate (person but you knew that)

and then as a logician - that if there is one wrong, then 60m wrongs become right

It is a busy day for intellects on AB campers !

@14.01.Sounds as if you are another victim of the"non-biased","neutral" mods on this site Peter.Join the club.
