Do they not see?

A new poll was released today.  Biden holds a 14-point edge over Trump.  For females, it was 55% to 33%.  Evidently one third of American women see nothing wrong with Trump’s contempt for women.

Hispanics broke 64% to 25%.  Evidently one-fourth of American Hispanics don’t have a problem with Trump’s contempt toward Hispanics and his belittling of Puerto Ricans and Mexicans.

White people with a college education broke 58% to 30%.  Evidently one third of American college graduates don’t have a problem with Trump’s denigration of science, rational thought, and knowledge in general.

If the election were held today, 90% of the Republicans would vote for Trump.  That means that nine out of ten Republicans have no problem with the nepotism, the corruption, the contempt for the values of free speech and a free press, the sheer incompetence in fighting the Covid 19 virus, the abandonment of environmental standards, the loss of prestige and power abroad, the constant lies, the uninformed appointees, the sucking up to dictators, the bullying, and the sheer meanness of the man.  

This is not the country in which I grew up.
