As wildly different as Harris and Trump are, their campaigns seem to share a degree of indifference to the specifics of what their candidates are saying, because both campaigns realize that many of their voters are unconcerned about such details—or, at the very least, are unlikely to be moved by them. What matters to many voters right now is their hatred and fear, however justified, of the opposing candidate, and the fun they have calling the other side weird, dangerous, and deranged.
How's that different from any other presidential race in the last 30 years?
Maybe that's not the questions we need to ask. Maybe we should be asking ourselves things like why is it that way, why we allow it, what we can realistically do to change it, and most importantly, are we willing to make the sacrifices, and suffer the consequences, without being attached to the outcome, either way or any way, ie, can we accept that the only thing that overcomes defeat is an everything-we've-got try?
I don't really understand your response. Of course I know why it's that way. The only way I can see to change it is widespread refusal to vote
