Nah the people voting for the orange fuhrer are beyond reason. It's the third that doesn't vote that needs to decide which road they want us all to take.

>30% of people usually just don't vote, even in the presidential elections that happen every 4 years.

It's of primary importance to motivate these folks to vote at all. Getting them to favor for a candidate who isn't batshit crazy is a secondary function.

A person who doesn't vote can't be meaningfully swayed one way or another to begin with.
