All these new voters . . .

Are, by definition, people who didn't vote in 2016 . . .

How many do you think are saying to themselves “Gee, President Trump has done such a great job, I just have to get out and vote for him!” . . .

And how many do you think are saying to themselves “I'd vote for a penguin if it would get this jackass out of office and give me back my country!!!"

Just askin' . . .

aren't BIG Trumpers & not very political. I have to believe something they really care about moved them to register NOW. That is usually something that upset them. My guess is they're wanting the orange man GONE!

Young adults who are able to recognize the truth.

Seniors who are terrified of homelessness & starvation due to shitstain's promise to do away with Social Security & Medicare.

I know people in both categories who are 1st time voters this year. They have all reportedly cast ballots for all Dems.

People are not usually compelled to action by complacency. It is usually discomfort and/or fear that things could get even worse.

Also, those who are suddenly unemployed and not receiving assistance.

Let's not forget the >200,000 families whose loved one(s) has been murdered by the"pResident!"
