I like to think that a lot of people who voted for him on Nov. 3, 2020 will either not vote for or outright vote against him based on the unrepentant anti-democratic behavior he's constantly displayed since then but I'm not getting my hopes up. It'd be horrifying if he actually garners more raw votes in the upcoming election.

Before 2020, I'd have said yes, but he botched COVID.

The answer is still a very unlikely yes, but I'm not a Democrat anymore, so I don't count and therefore didn't vote.

Never. Not even if you bribed me.

Same goes for 100% of Republicans at every other level of government, even as low as town council or school board.

No, and I will never vote for a Republican Party that venerates him or his memory after he is gone.

Not a democrat but I'll answer. If he took a significant and continuing stance on helping the poor, the starving, and homeless around the world, with meaningful policy proposals to back it up, I would consider it. He briefly gave lip service to this once in one of the previous campaigns but I don't think ever talked about it again.

For Trump, no. Zero chance.

For a Third Party candidate, unlikely at this point but not impossible. There's no chance I'd vote for RFK Jr. though.

If Bernie was the Dem nominee, I'd have to think about it for maybe half a second before determining if I don't vote at all or if I hold my nose and vote for him to stop Trump. Other than that, no.

If the Dem nominee were someone like Gottheimer, Golden or Moskowitz I could see myself voting third party. Fortunately that will never happen.

There's no situation I'd ever vote for Trump.

You could make up some bizarre situation with a really nightmarish Democratic nominee against Trump (Bob Menendez???) where I might have to vote third party. But it'd take a Bob Menendez tier pick.

If the GOP becomes a future majority party, it is likely because they absorb this wing of the Dems into their coalition and have a broad tent while the Dems get stuck being the party of white liberals like Elizabeth Warren.

1. Donald Trump attempts to appeal to moderates and/or sane people with his second running mate. This would have to be someone really good by the standards of the GOP, and because of that it's hard to imagine this would happen.
2. Donald Trump dies sometime in the late summer or early fall, before he can be replaced on the ballot
3. Joe Biden indicates that Kamala Harris will be his successor, either directly promising he will support her in 2028, giving signs that he may resign during his second term, or by simply dying along with Trump. He might even die before Trump and the DNC, allowing Harris to be nominated at a convention rife with forced unity and a lack of any sort of competition from better alternatives. This gives Harris an opportunity to make things even worse with a low-tier VP pick like David Trone, Dean Phillips, or other less appealing Democrats and DINOs.

Even with all this, I'm still persuadable for Harris if issues like climate change come up.

This is debatable at best as to whether it counts as a vote for Donald Trump giving the scenario requires he is not able to actually become President in 2025. Like Horace Greeley in 1872, Trump would not receive any electoral votes either.

But would they do it for a million bucks?

You cannot legally sell your vote. This would provide an out for anyone making such an offer, so they could scam me and I would be left having voted for Trump without reward. This sort of behavior is very much in line with how right wingers are.

NONE. If he had taken the 2020 loss like a man - did the adult and decent thing and concede and hand over power peacefully - then honestly yes I would consider it in certain circumstances (although the rich tax cuts and gun support would make it hard for me to justify considering everything else that comes with him)

Other Republicans? Yes if they were reasonably moderate and weren’t onboard with the big lie - then yes. Actually even someone like DeSantis would have a shot at my vote as long as he was not on board with the big lie

No, he puts up racist judges like GORSUCH, he put up Gorsuch that Kamala Harris called racist

The Crts need to be packed which Biden supports but he won't say it until Ds get the Trifecta
