YouTube Description
as posted by the channelGerald is a 51-year-old truck driver from suburban Atlanta. He voted for Biden in 2020. He voted for Trump in 2024. He can't afford groceries now — so he and his wife are fasting.
He calls it "fasting benefits." And when NPR asked him to grade Trump's second term, he said A++.
Wally voted the same way. Same state. Same demographic. He gives Trump an F.
New NPR/PBS News/Marist polling shows 81% of Americans say gas prices are straining their budgets — including 79% of Republicans. 63% blame Trump. His approval rating is at a record low. And Gerald is still the holdout.
This is the answer to the question: why don't they just admit they were wrong?
