Well the pinto had modest intentions. It was just meant to be an affordable compact car with good gas milage. The cybertruck is just a look-at-me-mobile for douche bros who have the rapey vibes of early Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The people it would be influencing would be the older republicans. Basically the Reaganites. They're not the brainwashed maga, but still vote republican. It should have helped show them that the guy they thought of as a warhawk and far right wing won't even vote for the guy then maybe they shouldn't either.
Admittedly, I didn't like Harris walking around with Liz Chaney because main steam democrats are already too centrist. It would never help sway republican voters but would scare away democratic voters to be seen hand-in-hand with a person who praised trump in his first term.
Republicans don't improve anything except profits for the top 1%. Not only are they not going to make healthy food more available or affordable, Trump's hard on for mass deportation is actually driving up the cost of produce.
And don't forget the "ASMR" post from a day or two before that. Imagine if the whitehouse posted something like a thunderstorm and captioned it "ASMR: conservatives crying over bakeries making cakes for gay weddings." while Biden was in office.
1/3 of the population is freaking out and screaming, 1/3 is saying "hell yeah, brother", and a 1/3 is like "I thought egg prices were supposed to go down."
Or that Dick Cheney said he would vote for a democrat. You'd think that would help influence a few more people. The guys who were considered the hard right just 10-15 years prior are now saying "nah, fuck that guy. He's a lunatic".
