I already voted, but my vote doesn't count in Arkansas because of the
electoral college.  Arkansas is an all or nothing state that takes away
the vote of the minority, and the majority of voters are fruity enough
to elect a governor that thinks Trump was picked by Jesus.

How half of the electorate, and most of registered Republicans, can
associate themselves with, nevermind vote for, someone who has said
the things Trump has said, shows this country has been taken over by
the inmates.

Our current governor spent a good deal of time lying to cover Trump's
stupidity as the White House press secretary, and she still believes
that he was sent by God.  That is the type of people supporting Trump at
this time.  He is a convicted felon, lost his defamation case and kept
lying about and abusing the person.  Trump is responsible for hundreds
of thousands of Covid deaths due to his lies and misinformation that he
kept putting out.  His supporters were so out of it that even though
Trump had OK'd the vaccine development they still opposed any effective
treatment that would reduce the impact of the pandemic that they thought
everyone was lying about.  Until the unvaccinated became naturally
vaccinated by getting the disease they were dying at 10 times the rate
of those that had been vaccinated.  The unvaccinated still have a higher
death rate than the vaccinated.  It isn't just their higher death rate,
but they are responsible for maintaining a higher level of the virus in
the environment than if they were vaccinated.  You can still get the
disease if you are vaccinated, and the more virus circulating the more
chance that everyone has of getting the disease.

I recently put up a review paper on the pandemic that claimed that Trump
policy and bogus rhetoric was responsible for 40% of the 400,000 people
that died of Covid under his watch.  Trump even admitted that he had
been lying about the Pandemic, but claimed that he had done it to keep
the public from panicking.  The dead can't forgive him, but the
survivors did.  It is crazy to listen to Trump supporters because they
seem to be clueless about what kind of tragically self centered person
that Trump has always been.  Some of them have even become Putin
supporters in order to keep supporting Trump's fascist tendencies and
open adoration for Putin.  How could that have happened in the
Republican party?

For whatever reason Trump supporters do not want to believe his white
house staff that accepted appointments from Trump and observed his
tragic behavior.  They were Trump supporters, but claim that a person
like Trump should never have been president, let alone get a second
chance.  Pence has come out and admitted that Trump had wanted him to
subvert the constitution, but that he would not do it.  The tragic thing
is that Trump's current vice president would obviously subvert the
constitution for Trump as he has bent over to support all of Trumps
campaign stupidity.  Any Staff that would work for Trump at this time
likely would do his illegal bidding, instead of refusing to carry out
the plans that would have made the first trump administration much worse
than it was.  Half the voters still want to vote for Trump.  Something
is really screwy among the voters at this time.
