Just The News: The stealth Trump voter: the president's secret weapon?

Studies have shown that phone polls may substantially undercount Trump vote.

In the 2000 horror movie "What Lies Beneath," Harrison Ford and Michele Pfeiffer star in a fictional tale about hidden secrets finally revealed. Now, 20 years later, what lies beneath in this year’s presidential campaign is The Secret Trump Voter. And that could be a real life horror show for Democrats.

Stealth Trump voters are not ashamed of voting for the president. They just don’t want a target on their backs. Just the News spoke with three such voters — "Jane," John," and "Richard," all of whose names have been changed to hide their identities.

WNU editor: We definitely witnessed the "stealth Trump' voter in 2016. Will we see it again in 2020? Recent polls have shown President Trump's favourable numbers to be around 50%, and all of this in the middle of a pandemic and overwhelming negative press coverage. See here .... Trump Job Approval (Gallup), and here .... Poll: Trump approval ticks up to 51 percent (The Hill). If the stealth voter is true, these numbers are then probably 5% higher (if not more). But I think this is all moot. A lot will happen between now and election day, and the pandemic coupled with the economic destruction that it has caused will be the number one issue in November.

In California the smart conservative stays true to Bernie because the state will never vote for a conservative, and in the case of Trump it drives your liberal friends out of their minds when they come at you about Trump and you just tell them you voted for Bernie while they were on the Hillary/Biden band wagon. It truly is a win win approach, and the lip quivering rage it generates is priceless.
