    I didn't dodge anything, it's simply not there. I've never read even ONE Trumper blog that's very different than I describe. That's one thing about Trumpers that's unmistakable, the total uniformity of their opinions one to one another is phenomenal.

    I did read your post which is why I asked the question that you didn't answer

    You are claiming DeSantis is a gutless coward for not admitting to taking a vaccine booster, for the J&J vaccine shot that he took, that J&J claimed doesn't require a vaccine booster?

    I said nothing about "gutless coward" or J&J vaccines. If you want to argue with yourself, then don't involve me in it.

    All DeSantis had to do is say yes or no, but he refused to answer. If you took J&J jab, then you are eligible for a booster 2 months later. Either he took it or he didn't. He won't say.

    That's from WVA's history. WWA was always the backwater of one of the nation's largest and most prosperous/populous States. In the ACW the West decided it was Union and seceded from the seceders, but there was simply nothing there afterwards. The great veins of anthracite rescued it from economic ruin and they did succeed in making it prosperous for a few decades but weren't enough once oil was found in Texas and Oklahoma and environmentalism has been the final nail for some years. As it stands it may have a bright future as "Almost Heaven"; some of the most beautiful tourist areas yet remaining close to Megalopolis and in a generally temperate climate in the USA.

    Certainly on some level you understand that attempting to generalize over Trump's 75 million voters based on your blogging is a view likely deeply infected with selection bias.

    Here are some blogs widely followed by mainstream conservatives and they have no hint of the extremism that you seem to think is widely prevalent among Trump voters.
    I won't click on what looks like a trashy blog, I don't want some weird crap loaded onto my computer. You should probably stay away from stuff like that.

    I like Trump and I appreciate Trump, but I think his failure to put us first after the election and before the GA runoff in early January is why we will not have a say in Justice Beyers replacement, and that's a big loss.

    It's far right stuff before 2016, but you'd be correct if you're saying that it's now mainstream republican today. Cult leaders can get people to follow BS really really fast.

    And before Omicron’s spread, early data from a federal clinical trial suggested it might be better for J&J one-shot recipients to get an mRNA vaccine booster. The trial’s preliminary data showed that people who had gotten the J&J vaccine followed by a Moderna booster had a 76-fold rise in antibodies in 15 days; those who got Pfizer saw a 35-fold increase; while those who got the J&J booster had only a fourfold increase. That data was published in a preprint and has not yet undergone independent peer review.
