😆 😆 A new poll shows that the vast majority of Americans are rejecting celebrity endorsements of political candidates — a blow to Democrats who have come to increasingly rely on Hollywood influencers to sway young voters and amplify left-wing talking points on social media.

For the recent presidential election, a full 75 percent of survey respondents said a celebrity’s endorsement of a candidate made no difference or not much of a difference on how they voted, according to the new Rasmussen poll released Monday.

Didnt the numbers show a pretty strong swing from 2020 and 2016 though? I know the Dems still won but I thought they showed comparisons and Trump/Reps picked up some significant ground.
Yes, but the state was still heavily Democrat Worse, local elections are flipping more and more towns from red to blue. My town is a last bastion of red but there is a growing ultra liberal faction that is turn the political dialogue from local issues, like school budges, and planning, to the rainbow agenda. The actually managed to get the regional high school to change their mascots from "Cowboys" to "Broncos" because they claimed Cowboys is not inclusive! The insanity is endless. That little ploy backfired on them though. It angered a lot of sane people who made sure they did not win the next two elections.

The only thing that could save NJ is if the Latino vote continues to shift red. NJ has had a lot of immigrants, legal and illegal, from central and south America. We are a sanctuary state. The urban areas around NY city, Newark, Camden and Trenton are big majority blue and densely populated.

At the same time Trump's attorney's filed motions claiming Jack Smith is not legitimate because he was not confirmed. Both sides are going to have to flip their positions.

This is actually an interesting and necessary case to fight in court. I think a special counsel should have to be confirmed by the Senate. After all, he is independent and does not technically report to the AG. He is spending taxpayer money to investigate whatever he was appointed to investigate and that needs oversight. I also think these appointments should be few and far between. There was no reason for the AG to appoint Jack Smith for example. Trump was out of office and any federal prosecutor could have taken the case. Smith was appointed to be a partisan hack, but with the caveat that Garland could claim he was independent.

I actually do not want a Republican Jack Smith investigating Democrats unless there is a clear predicate for a criminal investigation. There was no clear causes for Smith to investigate Trump for the documents case. That should have been handled between the National Archives and Trump as it was in every other similar to that one. I also do not believe the other case against Trump needs an investigation. For one thing, there was no crime in the Jan 6 case. Trump's was clear when he said "peacefully and patriotically have your voices heard". The other case claiming he attempted to overturn the election because he took legal action to appoint alternate electors, which has been done multiple times before, was even less obvious. There were no crimes and the DOJ is the arbiter of such decisions.

Trump's job should be to return the DOJ to a neutral political stance.

Having said that, there is no reason Matt Gaetz could not do the job and no reason not to confirm him. Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch were both highly partisan and got the job. Holder claimed to be Obama's "wingman". So I don't want to hear Democrats claim Gaetz would act as Trump's personal attorney.

I didnt pay attention during the first Trump term, is this the way it was the entire time or did Trump eventually let his press secretary take most of the questions?
