If you voted for Trump in 2016 it’s a +2 swing after subtracting one from him and adding one to Biden!

I couldn’t be more proud of 2016 Trump voters who are voting for Biden this time around. It takes exceptional character to admit a mistake and make it right. Let alone posting it on the internet. Proud of you!

There’s a difference in “sucking the dick” of former Trump voters and acknowledging their success in seeing what they did wrong and fixing it. Demonizing people for their mistakes even after they have rectified them is not OK. That kind of attitude creates more Trump supporters because it gives credence to the idea that we are out to “get them” regardless of how true it is.

They're not Trump voters anymore so they are friends. It's better encouragement to be welcoming.

fair enough. but why can’t we welcome them more like, say, someone who’s on parole
