Is there really anything a Democratic president can do that will make you vote Republican?
Even if he governs like a Republican, legislate bigotry, and has the morals of a whore?
I will say this for myself as well. I still voted Dem despite Clinton.
There are other things beyond the presidency that are impacted, such as judges and all of the progressive people who lead the many departments of the federal government.
I didn't say you can't criticize Trump.
What I'm criticizing is the confusion Dems on this board keep having for GOPers who will vote for conservative legislature because of issue they believe in beyond Trump such as gun control, lower taxes, abortion, etc.
Dems should stop caring about GOPers but look towards independents. Trump's job approval remains at constant at 40.9% (RCP average). It hasn't moved since April.
The people who like or dislike Trump have all made their decisions. It's just a matter now of getting more people who dislike Trump to vote in red/purple states.
