PozBearWI Posted June 4 Report Posted June 4 One of the points I found interesting as I read more about Lewis and Clark expedition, what that for a century before that, French Canadians had long integrated with western Native American's; not only forming trade, but families and communities. I live in a village in Wisconsin and back in 1815 when there began to be records kept about this region, we had up until "immigrants" arrived been entirely Native American. At our start trade, community, families emerged. Keep in mind that a year ago (or so) both major political parties had arrived at a consensus on tackling immigration. It was at the behest of one guy that continued as a problem. Had it not been for that; we would have been working under that new plan by now. While each of us I believe were born in the nation we reside, unless we're Native American, our ancestors weren't "from here". Professionally I worked with people from around the globe; citizens of other countries. 1 Quote

SDCumPup Posted July 17 Report Posted July 17 It was pretty much the exact same people who voted for him all three times. He never had any significant gains or losses in total numbers of votes. What did change was the overall voter turnout across all three election cycles. 2016 had a very low turnout with more or less balanced numbers between the two candidates, which is why it came down to a few thousand votes spread haphazardly across several swing states for Trump to miraculously capture the Electoral College. In 2020 we experienced record high voter turnout because people were disgusted by Trump and his administration of grifters, which saw even a sizable number of hardcore Republicans vote for the Democratic candidate. They weren’t voting for Joe Biden so much as they were voting against Donald Trump. In 2026 we had another election cycle with record low turnout, with only about 51-52% of the registered voters in the entire country casting a ballot. Trump keeps talking about a landslide and having a mandate, but he simply doesn’t. Far, far less than half of the registered voters in the country voted for him. 1 1 Quote

That is who voted That’s definitely a huge part of it! The Electoral College is the last active vestige of the racist 3/5 Compromise left in the US constitution aside from the way in which we determine apportionment, but since apportionment really doesn’t have much of an impact in terms of racial issues, it’s not a problem. 1 Quote
