25 to 30% of the people who voted for Obama in 2012 voted for Trump in 2016

Those voters want novelty. Black...orange...next up is socialism

I think they're vaguely leftist if anything, pro-union, protectionist etc

Silicon Valley tech bro doesn't really exude populism

Silicon Valley = Bridges for the poor. Walls for us.

Spoiler: The bridges don’t go nowhere

Yang isn't popular in Sillicon Valley though. At least not his core ideas. From Forbes-

Quote:

According to a recent survey conducted by workplace transparency service Blind, just 34 percent of Silicon Valley tech employees agreed that UBI could be the solution to job loss due to tech automation. That seemingly low figure of support could also be driven by the fact that the industry is surprisingly split on the potential impact of automation. Overall, 43 percent of Valley employees are concerned about a potential employment crisis caused by automation. Even among those who do believe that AI and automation will do potentially irreparable harm to the American workforce, less than half—just 46 percent—support UBI.

The news they watch maybe. They just think he’s fun. Same as having a black president. They’re like college bitches that want to **** a black guy then an old(er) guy. I don’t even know how many Japanese chicks I got to **** just because of novelty.

The Dems move right and lefty don’t vote.

If Biden wins I’m voting for Trump. That’s not a joke.
