Let me begin this by saying that my 'day job' involves me having to remain neutral and unbiased, because I work in the realm of market research, and often that involves asking respondents from all sides political questions. I entered this profession when Barack Obama was in office, and even though I thought he was a mediocre President at best, I can safely say when it came to the thousands of people I've spoke to, that most of then respected the way he represented the office of being President of the United States. To further enhance that, let me point out that I probably interview more conservatives than liberals and moderates on a ration of 3:1 on any given day. People seem to understand that not everything involved the then President of the United States and that listening to what was being asked made sure their answers were inline with their actual opinions.
The same cannot be said about Trump, for he certainly has made trying to interview anyone more of a heated hassle than it needs to be, because his supporters emulate his behavior. Think about how much of a cry-baby Trump is, and how much of a pussy he acts like... now realize there are thousands of Americans out there who use his behavior to justify their own, while being just as uninformed about the reality of what's going on in the world. Let me give you an example, a standard question that appears on most polls is 'Do you Approve or Disapprove of the Job (Blank) is doing as (Blank)", it's a simple question with two choices.... the average Trump Supporter can't give a straight answer on that question, much like the man himself, they will go off on tangents complaining about the same things Trump does while avoiding to give a direct answer. I can safely say when when Mr. Obama was in office, no matter if I was speaking with his supporters or detractors, getting an answer to a simple question was not like trying to
Now let go further down this rabbit hole, another trait of these clown are that much like Trump himself, his supporters believe everything revolves around him. For example, let say that on a ballot there's an issue surrounding industrial hemp, which is an issue that is often up for debate in certain regions of the country and has been for years to where it's more a local state issue than it is a national one. Somehow Trump supporters will turn this issue into being about him when the two are not connected, or if the question is being asked in the form of how it would appear on a ballot during an election. Don't get me started on if they are presented points and counter-points from those who support and oppose an issue, Trump supporters will come across as little more than copy-cats of the man himself.
But what if I'm interviewing people about something not related to the elections or politics, what if I'm asking questions about the reputation of local area hospitals. Trump supporters will assume that's about him too, which has become quite common thanks to how he dropped the ball in regards to COVID-19. Trump supporters get on their high horse in praise of him when all I'm trying ask is if 'Does (Insert Hospital Name Here) have a very good, good, fair or poor reputation', I am not kidding about this.
I could go on and on, but let me state from a professional stand point, I hope to whatever god or gods or goddesses or what not is out there, that Trump loses and loses big in the upcoming election, so that my job can be normal again.
(Or that I suddenly become huge on twitch and don't have to worry about having a day job)
