Donald Trump has not received a poll boost in the first presidential election survey conducted since the failed assassination attempt on Saturday.

The poll, conducted by Morning Consult of 2,045 registered voters on Monday, reveals that Trump is leading Joe Biden by just one percentage point on 46 percent, compared to the president’s 45 percent. The poll has a margin of error of +/- two percentage points.

      If I lived in a purple state I’d vote Democrat for President to attempt short term harm reduction. I don’t even believe in it. But, I’d do it for the most underprivileged who can’t risk the alternative. If I lived in a blue state it’d depend on the nuance of the situation.

      But, I live in a deep red state. My vote for President has absolutely no effect on the outcome of this election. I learned and reasoned a way to possibly empower the change most Democratic voters want to see in the next election. I don’t care about Green any more than Democrats, except that Green has a nice simple platform that they’ve been loyal to for decades and I agree with.

      But, everyone thinks everyone else is too stupid to understand a couple paragraphs and choose wisely for themselves. That’s why everything sucks. We don’t trust each other at all.
