They didn’t pay attention until it started to affect them personally… Before that it was just “politics” and they weren’t interested.

It's probably a good thing that the "didn't bother to vote" crowd is waking up to what is happening (to them, that they didn't try to prevent).

"Smaller government!" they yell as 5 lanes merge into 1 and everyone sits in traffic, breathing each other's rage. Congrats—we downsized function and sanity.

I reckon this toothless hoe doesn't read the news, maybe she's paying attention now?

At this point I could give a flying shit. We all know what happens; They bitch and moan that they hate Trump, then 2028 will come (if there’s an election not martial law) & these dumb fuckers will vote 4 him again. All they need is to be inundated with pro-Trump 💩 or anti-whoever the opposition is.

Can someone please explain to me why people don't follow politics or news about politics? Saying you don't care about politics is like saying you don't care about your life.

Having just watched the presser with Carney, I'd be even more down on Trump if I was an engaged voter.

As a very engaged voter, I am painfully aware on a daily if not on a minute by minute basis that Trump and his entire cabal are a freakin' disaster.

The Senate just voted along party lines to confirm a self-described “DOGE person” as the Commissioner of Social Security. SHAME ON THEM. Wall Street billionaire Frank Bisignano is not the cure to the DOGE-manufactured chaos at the Social Security Administration.

Damn. Imagine if they actually took their heads out of their asses and paid attention to reality. They may have actually not voted for him in the first place.

Every thing he's said or done since entering politics has proven what I knew from the start, that Trump could end up the most dangerous man in the world, I just didn't think his dememtia would set in as quickly as it has, but overall, he's been a cancer to this country.

Because the media has been running cover for him since he came down the escalator by not digging deep into the real story and letting go of the grab them by the p**** remark but her emails Biden's too old I sure would like to see the IQ of the people that are still supporting him

Fox News viewers are the last holdouts because they are constantly lied to and too far gone.

Too bad it didn't happen b4 the election

trump sucks

If the democrats are worried about engagement, they need to immediately read the room. AOC and Sanders are drawing in record crowds in a non election season. Slotkin has voted in support of maga frequently. Guess who the democratic party is backing? They will cost us everything.

Always heard people get the government they deserve. It’s most frustrating for those that keep up and engage. Not difficult back in 2016 to know this guy would be a disaster not only for America but the world. Terrifying that ppl don’t care about intelligence, morality, ethics or laws. Flimflam man.

I believe that this is quite true.

They have been given many reasons to pay attention every damn day.

Perhaps those people will pay attention now. They could start by participating in protests and speaking out at town halls. 🤷‍♀️

Yep too bad they didn't have the time to pay attention 3 months ago. Now we all get to #fafo

So they aren’t getting propagandized by the Faux News channel?

What an odd thing. I wonder why those folks in particular are down on him since they, by definition, don't know what he's doing.

Orange assholes says something stupid then doubles down. Blames Obama and repeat nothing really new

Narcissistic authoritarian felon sociopathic pathological liar tyrant wannabe king is bankrupting our government by dismantling, weakening it and tanking global economy so he can have COMPLETE CONTROL. Fascist oligarchy can't survive when confronted with worker solidarity! Nip them in the bud. NOW!!

Who cares? Half these dim eejits voted him in!

A large percentage of trump voters only watched Fox news, which explains their lack of knowledge.

Wait…. Where’s Vance? Oh….. THAT’s where he is!

FAIR did a study some decades ago that showed people who watched the news the least actually were the best informed (not crapagandized!)

I...guess that's...good?

These are the morons who shouldn't be voting.

Great, so can we count on them not to vote again next time?

Not entirely clear to me that Trump is a fellow who makes decisions based on polls.

Mostly cause it couldn't go lower with those of us paying attention...

Still too high

The ones that didn’t vote or voted for his promises did this.

Democrats cannot reach The Non Informed Voter because they doesn't care about facts. It's a gut feeling which Dem messaging never focuses on contrary to Republicans

To the 37% of voters who abstained -- SEE! It affects you too! VOTE!

It tells us that Trump's idiocy is what actually trickles down.

Guess MAGA finally WOKE-Up to the Fox News propaganda machine! #StayWOKE

News...meaning network (lying) news or new independent news?

Why do we have to wait for 4 GOPs in Congress to join the Dems to impeach the rapist/felon when there are millions of us that want him and his rapist regime out.

Fox News is the most watched news channel. These people don't watch Fox.

This looks like a deep dive into a fascinating topic! The intersection of data and decision-making is so crucial today. What insights from your analysis stood out to you the most? I'm curious to hear your thoughts!

The mass media is already on their knees to this fool

Still too high

FYI. the more poor one is, the likelihood of one being uneducated and having poor judgement in making decisions that affect your life. This chart explains a lot of why MAGA is mostly in red southern and mid-west states.

KGB Agent Pumpkintits ratings were never enviable

Would LOVE to see the approval rating of disengaged voters.

The fact that almost 37% of eligible voters didnt bother to vote in the most consequential election in the last century tells you all you need to know about this country at the moment😒

If they were paying attention we wouldn’t be in this mess. Every American has the responsibility to be an informed voter (and not by Fox or Newsmax)

Depends largely on if this considers propaganda networks masquerading as "news" or fact based journalism

They were the easiest to mislead and so it’s no surprise. They went with vibes rather than paying close attention.

Unfortunately, they probably didn't vote either.

Is Fox considered “news” in this survey? 😇

It's like playing whack-a-mole with that lot...

"...a post-election survey from Data for Progress found that the voters who paid the most attention to the news in 2024 voted for Kamala Harris by 6 percentage points, while those who paid no attention at all voted for Trump by 19."

30% of citizens did NOT vote, no? Blame THEM, not those that did vote.

Down just like the stock market has been down 🙄

That makes no sense. America is weird.

what does it matter now?

This does not seem to make sense.

So...he's losing the idiots?

maybe they will vote this time

Uh oh!! 😂

great post. it's a key.

Word of Mouth is finally kicking in, lol. With any luck there won't be a GOP party before long, or it becomes a new party racing Dems to the left. D party doesn't support Progressives enough, after all. 🤔 It's what America wants, even those that've been tricked by FOXNoise into not knowing it.

Think this if nothing else will get them engaged? Jeez!

OK seriously. Go look at this page. Is a collection of some of the most shit graphics I’ve ever seen. The x, y axes aren’t even labeled on some of these.

The Koolaid is unsweetened now...

So how does someone who follows politics "Most of the time" have a +3 approval of Donald Trump? Trump isn't a Trump problem, Trump is an America problem.

Those 19 million registered Democrats who chose not to vote gave their vote to Trump. They were warned, they chose not to care. They have no right to complain.

It's a vibe thing. His awfulness is even in the air...

Needing a second job to buy groceries they don't have any time to watch the news.

seems bad...... FOR TRUMP!!!

Interesting…

I heard in the last election cycle The Felon was #1 with non-voters. 🤪

“When Trump was inaugurated, net approval among people who say they read or watch news “hardly at all” was +12, and it's now -21. That compares to just a 14-point drop in Trump approval, from +3 to -11, among people who say they pay attention to the news "most of the time."

The folks who paid the least amount of attention to the news (low-info voters) handed Trump the Presidency. Now they're the one's who are going to get hit hardest by Trump's policies. They got played... The buyer's remorse comes as no surprise...

The time for Dems/independents against the GOP to get attention, it is NOW. And keep going. Those egg prices turned into no more dollies for xmas (and monumentally stupid comments by a hypocritical miser) .. and car prices and the rest of the shitshow. Maintain the rage.

Those same kind of people helped put us here.

Meaning they’re just looking around at everything going to shit and seeing the failure in real time

Are they the same ones that hated Biden?

Imagine how much they’d dislike him if they paid any attention 🤷‍♀️

It’s because they went grocery shopping

Because it can’t go any lower with anyone who’s ever paid any attention to the news.

The more they are forced to understand what's going on (like realizing prices are rising when they try to buy something), the more they dislike.

The Only Now and Then stat doesn't make sense then.

Don't be too fooled by polls and stats. there's still plenty of trump flags flying around in this rural area. Plenty.

This actually validates my point that voting is a shared responsibility. Yes, the candidate must give you something to vote for. But the voter must also take the time to learn about the issues.
