@tantramar I’m flummoxed by the amount of support he’s gotten in polls, but I think actual votes are going to be a very different ball game.
We have a misconception that everyone who votes for a third party would have otherwise voted for one of the other two candidates, as if voting were mandatory. It’s not, not in the US anyway. They might have skipped the presidential box or stayed home.
Elections are won or lost depending on who shows up. It’s not messaging and it’s not candidates.
