Fervent Trump supporters from last elections air doubts over abortion and the man himself in state where turnout will be key
Terri Burl has come full circle.
The local Republican party official was a founding member of Women for Trump in her corner of rural Wisconsin eight years ago when the then New York businessman’s run for president was little more than a joke to political pundits.
Burl twice campaigned enthusiastically for Donald Trump’s election but, after he lost the presidency to Joe Biden in 2020, she feared the chaos of his years in power had made him unelectable. The former social worker and substitute teacher switched her support to Florida’s governor, Ron DeSantis, and then Trump’s former UN ambassador Nikki Haley.
But now Burl is back campaigning for Trump in Oneida county.
“I don’t feel excited. But I have a bunch of ‘Never Trump’ friends and this is my argument to them: I say, you better vote for Trump or you get Biden,” she said.
They’re both too fucking old. So if it helps you think about it, you may be voting for Kamala, not Biden, given his mental presence in the present.
This lackluster shit helps no one. But Trump would be disastrous beyond the 2016-2020 thing. He won’t leave this time. And he’s not the guy to deal with this Russia China alliance.
If ever there was an endorsement for mail in ballots, like some states have, this is it. You register to vote at the DMV. And your ballot shows up in the mail. No effort/extra time needed, large turnout.
