Juno News - The media's anti-Trump narrative backfired

00:00:00.000 While we still don't know for certain who won the American presidential election yet,

00:00:10.120 we do have some very interesting exit polling data that tells a very interesting story. In fact,

00:00:17.080 it backs up something I was saying a few videos ago in advance of the election. I was predicting

00:00:23.240 that we would actually see these demographic groups of voters that Donald Trump supposedly

00:00:28.160 hates and he doesn't like them and they don't like him and he has policies that are terrible for them,

00:00:32.620 so they'll never vote for him. Those groups that we hear this narrative about, they're actually going

00:00:37.280 to come out even more in support for Donald Trump. And the exit polling data shows that has actually

00:00:44.020 turned out to be true. Why did I first think that? Well, we just saw all of these polls happening in

00:00:48.880 the months before the election, when there was turmoil in the streets of many American cities

00:00:53.220 during the summer protests turning into riots led by Antifa involving Black Lives Matter,

00:00:58.780 the polls showed that more black voters were gravitating towards Donald Trump. Wow. Also

00:01:04.760 recently, we saw that more LGBT voters were taking an interest in Donald Trump. Interesting stuff there.

00:01:10.620 So what actually happened? Well, the exit polling data from firms like Edison, which is one of the

00:01:15.920 top ones in the country, they suggest, yes, this stuff did indeed happen. Huge increases in the African

00:01:23.280 American vote, men, women, increases in white women as well, increases in the LGBT vote going up to

00:01:30.560 something like 28%. The Muslim vote even increasing, not by a ton, but from 13% to 35% in 2020. Wow.

00:01:40.960 In fact, the only demographic it seems like he lost on was white males. Everything else saw an

00:01:47.740 increase. What is going on here? Well, I think there are two things that are happening. One is I

00:01:52.720 think people were told, Donald Trump has terrible policies for you. Donald Trump hates you. And

00:01:57.020 folks said, okay, well, I'm going to want to fact check that. I'm going to want to see just how much

00:02:01.060 he hates me and just how terrible these policies are for me. Then folks looked into it and thought,

00:02:05.880 oh, I don't know. I'm not so sure that's actually true. And I really look for the evidence and the

00:02:10.680 goods. And actually, I kind of like this policy or that policy. And they voted accordingly. And I

00:02:16.420 think another thing that played a big role in that is more and more there is toxic identity politics

00:02:21.920 everywhere, filtering into every aspect of our lives, all media, all entertainment, all just basic

00:02:29.220 discussions where we should be able to get away from all of that stuff. The sports world, heavens,

00:02:33.660 we can't get away from it there. And I think people of all walks of life have said, we've had enough.

00:02:39.660 We don't care about this toxic identity politics. That was supposed to be front and center why Donald

00:02:45.380 Trump was a bad man, orange man, bad, and what a villain. And people just got tired of it. As I've

00:02:52.100 said many times before, look, if you don't think Donald Trump's a good president, you think he's a

00:02:56.440 bad candidate, you don't like the policies, well, just say it, articulate it fairly politely. People

00:03:01.320 will listen. Maybe they will agree with you. You like Joe Biden better. You like Hillary Clinton better.

00:03:05.580 Okay, we'll put the case forward. You can volunteer for them, donate for them, you know, whatever you

00:03:09.680 got to do. It's a free society. It's a democracy. But this oversell, this over-the-top stuff,

00:03:16.440 I think it didn't work. In fact, I think the evidence shows it backfired.

00:03:20.880 We'll be right back.

00:03:29.920 Okay.
