Zoom in: Axios sat in on two Engagious/Sago online groups Tuesday night with 14 Michigan voters who backed Trump in 2016 and Biden in 2020. Six were Republicans, while eight were independents. There were no Democrats.

A focus group is not a statistically significant sample like a poll, but the responses show how some voters are thinking and talking about current events.

"Falling down. Loss of balance. My father has dementia, so I have seen a progression," said Yvette P.

"Seems like he's at a loss for words or he forgets what he's actually speaking about, and gets things confused between people who he's tried to talk about or situations he's trying to explain," said Jerome B.

The big picture: The majority of the participants would take Trump back, with half open to taking him back even if he is convicted of a felony before the election.

Because the mainstream media is all but completely owned by conservative-based conglomerates.

I don't know what kind of hamsters they have running on the wheel that makes twitter run now but the links to it barely load for me anymore and when they do they insist I log in to see much of anything. Can we summarize twitter links now?

The point is to interview voters who switched between Trump and Biden, swing voters. If none of those people identify as Democrats then it just is what it is.

People who vote Democrat (or Republican) 100% of the time are not the ones deciding the election.

Why exactly would you expect these people to be Democrats?

How conveniently suspicious.

Sadly, Democrats who vote Republican do exist. Ashli Babbitt supposedly voted for Obama twice before becoming a Trump supporter.

How? Again, if someone votes for the same party every election there's no point in interviewing them. They don't have anything particularly shocking to say. The media wants to know why a Trump supporter voted Biden, why an Obama supporter voted Trump, etc.

The grand majority of people who ever voted Trump probably don't consider themselves Democrats, so Dems are unlikely to be featured in this type of reporting.

How do you know Ashli Babbitt wasn't an independent? Also, I really doubt Ashli Babbitt would go from voting for Obama to retweeting #blacklivesdontmatter.
