It was nice to hear some opinions that haven't been tainted by the extreme tribal digging-in that goes on here for once.

It's good to be reminded that this place isn't real life. The most vocal are almost always trolling. The ones who believe this is a battleground that can swing the election are separated from reality.

I don't know a single Republican that hates DeSantis or thinks he's destroying anything. Most are extremely open to voting for him.

As other people have indicated, Trump's lead is a mile wide and an inch deep. Most people aren't actively engaged enough right now to have strong opinions. So when they're polled it's a reflex to just say Trump.

Even most of the people here are strangely uninformed. They seem to get their news from this message board.
