Republican Joe says "Republicans are tired of the B.S and Lies of Trump!

I have heard this from many different avenues that Republicans are tired of the BS and Lies that Trump is constantly giving:

"I've been in New Hampshire a bunch, I've been in Iowa a bunch, I've been in a number of states," Walsh explained. "I'm talking to Republican voters," he continued, "and I gotta tell you ... they're tired of him [Trump]. They're sick of his B.S. They're sick of his lies."

Fatigue from the daily attention that Trump creates is working negatively and mostly in Republicans;

Consumers are positively exhausted.

At least that's the consensus of a solid majority of those polled by Pew earlier this year, with almost seven in 10 Americans declaring they are worn out from news fatigue — particularly Republicans.

According to the study, 77 percent of Republican and Republican-leaning independents "feel worn out over how much news there is," compared to 61 percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents.

The demoralizing reality of life under Trump:

The Demoralizing Reality of Life Under Trump
Every day is the same, but still awful.

It’s boring, at this point, to talk about the cost of living with Donald Trump as president—it’s the water we all swim in now, so it’s neither unique nor new nor surprising. And yet it’s still true, which is why it’s refreshing to read Matt Ford’s excellent piece in the New Republic, “Trump’s Tax on the National Psyche.” Ford’s formulation is a useful way to think about the massive toll, in terms of time and energy stolen from Americans forced to pay attention to inane tweets and half-baked policy, this presidency has had on all of us. As Ford observes, Trump, himself an inveterate squanderer of time, is wasting all of ours: “Trump’s haphazard style of governance,” he writes, “forces journalists, lawyers, and government officials to expend innumerable hours on doomed initiatives and errant tweets. His corrosive effect on American politics forces Americans to devote far more hours of their life to thinking about him than they should.” The problem is that we have no choice but to follow the inane tweets and oppose the half-baked policy. There are serious consequences that follow to transgender soldiers, DACA kids, green card holders, and, of course, families at the border when we don’t.

Everyone has a breaking point and even among the Republican party many are nearing that point now:

Everyone has a breaking point.

It's worth remembering that fact at this moment as congressional Republicans find themselves confronted with a cavalcade of troubling news stories about President Donald Trump and his conduct in office. Because while elected GOP officials have almost totally capitulated to Trump's hostile takeover of their party, there is always a point at which you simply cannot look even quasi-objectively at the actions of this president and conclude that standing behind him remains the right (or even defensible) thing to do.

There is a growing number of Republican Governors, Senators and U.S. representatives that have turned against Trump:

THE USA TODAY Network surveyed Republican governors, senators and U.S. representatives across the country to ask whether they planned to back their party’s nominee in the wake of a newly released video in which Donald Trump is heard making lewd comments about women. Many are continuing to endorse Trump, but dozens are now backing away or denouncing his comments. See where they stand below and click to see their comments.

One comment I heard this morning is that many Republicans are so tired of everything that Trump requires of them every day with his daily tweets, daily attacks of the Democrats or even Republicans that do not support him blindly, the hate that is offered every day, the attention that Trump news requires every day that they will not change their support of him in the next election but may choose not to get up and go and vote for him. The outlook for another 4 years of exhaustion and fatigue is not going to stimulate them to vote this time.

Regardless - as long as Trump enjoys 90%+ support amongst the GOP voting base, the Republican politicos will kiss has ass.

What is happening with Trump has happened to every Republican since Nixon.

What is new is Trump is teaching the party how to fight back.

Good riddance to those wanting to tuck and run.

These sentiments mean little if they don't result in their voting against trump in the 2020 election. They can't even take the nomination from him; and they mean even less when he still has a near 90% approval in the party. Luckily, he's an anchor that is dragging the party down in the country. Democrats are in very good shape in 2020, especially if we nominate Bernie.

We know (and is explained in the OP) that Trump enjoys 90% support from his base. That was the same case in 2016. What made the difference in 2016 in favor of Trump is that Republicans turned out to vote for him and the Democrats didn't show up to vote for Hillary. In spite of that, Hillary won the popular vote but lost the electoral vote but then only by 77,000 votes..

What several studies of Republicans show is that in spite of the fact they still support Trump and will not change their votes for a Democrat, they may not make "the effort" to get up and go and vote given that they are exhausted, tired and fatigued of the daily tweets, the hate speeches, the daily news about Trump (mostly negative) and everything else that takes them away from the things that are important to them.

On the other side of the coin, the Democrats are stimulated by the 4 years of Trump in office and they will get up and vote (perfect example is me. I have never voted before and have now registered to vote for the firs time in my life).

Less votes for Trump and more against him is a formula for Democratic success. Simple as that.

They spend so much time in the echo chamber that they fail to realize that Schiff and his cabal have driven them over the cliff and that their candidates are totally unelectable. The only question about next year is the size of Trump's victory.

To the bolded:

Not to detract from the rest of your post, but it's about time!

I came out of a highly political environment, where casting your first vote was a celebration - a family & neighborhood activity, in an extremely political neighborhood of like-minded families. Just like back then, today with my own family we all trudge down together to the polling place, cheer the new kid on as he pulls the lever, get pictures with the new kid standing outside proudly displaying his polling receipt, and then go to to a family dinner-out in a restaurant.

Back in the day in my old neighborhood, it was customary for my old man and a few others to finish the celebration for their boys, by getting us a single shot at the back door of the corner bar where we were on good terms with the owners and the neighbors inside. This was to signify we were now adults in an adult world.

Since I will likely be many miles from wherever you are on Nov 3rd, and not able to buy you a real-life shot, rest assured I'll be sending a cyber shot your way!

These days going from one extreme (Trump) to the other is normal and common as the fact that we now have a president that has lied over 13500 times and that is now accepted as usual. I would venture to say that the other extreme (Sanders/Warren) is as likely to win as Trump was in 2016.................psst, Trump won in 2016. Using that example, either Sanders or Warren are shoo-ins.

Skoal to you.

Another perfect example of how many Republicans will not get up and vote for him on this election is this OP.

This is an OP that is showing how Republicans themselves are tired, fatigued and exhausted about the constant turmoil that the Trump administration brings to the table. The constant need to listen and pay attention to him daily. How that means they will not get up from their beds and sofas to vote.

How is this OP showing that?

Only 1 Trump supporters has made the effort to comment on this thread. Getting up to vote takes a lot more effort than commenting here.

One additional fact is that every day I am seeing less Trump supporters involved in conversations here every day. There are at least 14 Trump supporters that were commenting on posts repeatedly a year ago that have not been seen much anymore.

Hey, it doesn't take a big percentage of Trump supporters to not get up to vote to change the election results. About 63 million Republicans voted for Trump in 2016 and yet the difference in the electoral college was only 77,000 votes. that is only .00122% difference (1/10% of 1%). If only 1% of Trump supporters stay home and don't get up to vote, the Democrats will win in a landslide! In addition, in the 2018 election, 13.7% more Democrats turned out to vote than in 2016!

Numbers don't lie.

Trump is like a drug. Will his addicts get worn down like hopeless meth addicts, their hatred and anger all spent, or will they seek out stronger doses. Time will tell.

And what did the Czar do to the Russian people? Allowed peasants to starve and presided over mass homelessness. He was a hopelessly inept leader, completely out of touch with the Russian populace. That's why the October Revolution happened; the people had had enough.

And he's right. I should know, as I'm a lifelong Republican in NH who is sick of tired of Trump's lies, and knows tons of people who feel the same way - and these are people who ended up voting for him anyway (because he wasn't Clinton). They won't be voting for him again in 2020.
