Overall, an excellent expose on who is going to vote democrap.
However, in the conclusion, one horribly incorrect statement.
>>> A non-virtuous people who have no self-control will always need totalitarian government to oversee them.
FALSE
Historical Truth: A non-virtuous people who have no self-control will always DESTROY THEIR SOCIETY AND GOVERNMENT.
A totalitarian government does NOT oversee this imbecilic people - it simply lets them (and aids them to) destroy themselves, and takes everything from them.
These types always consume themselves - and cease to be an 'empire'. Take a look at the Israelites and their never ending cycles (every fourty or so years) of self-destruction, enslaving themselves to 'new governments/countries' and then being returned to decent governance by their virtuous and true GOD.

Who Is Going to Vote Democrat?
by Mark Lewis Townhall.com
At least 40% of Americans who vote this year are almost sure to vote for Harris/Walz and other Democrats down ticket. That’s a history lesson that I have written about before. Even the woefully incompetent Jimmy Carter received 41% of the popular vote in 1980 after four years of miserable failure. I guess some people like failure.
But who are these people? Who in their right mind would vote for Kamala Harris for President? Well, again, millions will do it. Why? Let’s look at who these people are.
But before I do that, I want to mention the countless Americans who won’t vote for anybody. They never do. And for various reasons, probably mainly because they don’t think it does any good. They might tell you, “Nothing ever changes except to get worse,” “There is little or no difference between Democrats and Republicans,” or “It’s a waste of time.” And there might be some truth to these complaints, though not totally. Some people just don’t care and don’t want to participate, and “freedom” gives them that right. Of course, if they don’t vote, they don’t really have a right to complain about the consequences, but the feeling that one vote among millions isn’t going to have any effect disincentivizes them as well. Probably, there are as many “Republicans” who feel this way as “Democrats,” so I doubt the “non-voters,” if they did vote, would swing the election one way or another. But if we could only convince all the “non-voting Republicans” to vote (and the “non-voting Democrats” to stay at home), then Trump would surely win, and the House and Senate would become Republican. I’m sure Democrats feel the same way about that, too. Millions aren’t going to vote. That’s just the way it is.
But who is it who votes for Democrats? That’s my main question.
1. Low-information voters. Some multitudes aren’t terribly interested in politics, but they vote anyway. They’re not much better than the non-voters (maybe even worse) because they don’t know or care much more than the totally apathetic. There is some practicality to this. Life is difficult at the best of times, and people (should) work hard to succeed. This does limit our time to study history, become knowledgeable in civic affairs, and truly investigate and research candidates to decide who would be the best for the country.
Kamala Harris is putting a lot of faith in this coterie of voters. Her far-left past needs to be hidden because most Americans aren’t radical, at least not as radical as she is. So, she repeatedly lies about her record and hopes the Democratic media can cover for her, reach these low-information voters, and convince them she’s the “moderate,” and Trump is the “extremist.” It will undoubtedly work for millions because they’ll vote for her. They don’t study, they don’t read, they don’t think, they don’t know. The Left, through its control of America’s education system, has done yeoman work in producing legions of these ignorant, low-information voters. “Joy” and “brat” will appeal to many of them. It’s...democracy.
2. Government dependents. As Sir Alexander Fraser Tytler so poignantly wrote, “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury.” Democrats buy votes. Republicans do, too, but it certainly has been a foundation of the Democratic Party as far back as Franklin Roosevelt, perhaps the greatest vote-buyer of all time. It’s why the American government is over $34 trillion in debt, and it won’t stop.
Listen to Kamala. She has a plethora of projects to buy votes. The more people are dependent upon the government, the less free they are, and the more they will continue to vote for the politicians who will keep them enslaved to the government. As strange as it may sound, many people, perhaps most, prefer slavery (dependence, security) to freedom (personal self-government, responsibility, virtue). The Democratic Party has created countless millions of such people, and they will vote for Harris. Trump—freedom—scares them to death.
3. The immoral and mentally aberrant. The Democrats have a vested interest in producing as many of these people as possible, too, and they have done a marvelous job in accomplishing it. These people are similar to point two, government dependents. People who lack self-control won’t take care of themselves. They live selfishly, and create societal chaos. That is tailor-made for totalitarians, who want as much societal disturbance as possible so that the government can step in and take control.
Again, history teaches that sacrificing freedom to have security is not uncommon, and when criminals, perverts, and mentally aberrant people are running loose and threatening virtue and social order, we either buy guns and protect ourselves or we get government to do it—which is, frankly, (supposed to be) its main function (“to secure these rights”). These are people who have no moral compass, who root and ground their lives in hedonistic nihilism, who are adrift like a buoy in a vast ocean of nothingness, with no sense of purpose or direction in their lives. Just what Democrats want.
America’s education system, having replaced God and ultimate reality for the aimless, pointless fantasy of atheistic materialism, is largely responsible for this. We have raised too many generations like this, and they are now teaching America’s children what to believe—and not believe. If this doesn’t stop, there is absolutely no hope for the country. At least, no hope for freedom. A non-virtuous people who have no self-control will always need totalitarian government to oversee them. That is exactly what the Democrats want, and exactly the kind of voters they appeal to.
Such people, and others, will vote Harris/Walz.
