Swing-state voters trust Trump over Harris to repel alien invasion ? and handle present wars too

New battleground-state polling says that when it comes to a thus-far hypothetical battle against marauding extraterrestrials, voters want Donald Trump as their leader over Kamala Harris — and they prefer him to handle the very real conflicts on Earth too.

The Institute for Global Affairs surveyed “a nationally representative sample” of Americans but focused on some Rust Belt voters (in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan) and Sun Belt voters (in Georgia, Arizona Nevada), asking their views on some out-of-this-world topics.

Whereas voters nationally are split evenly on whether Harris or Trump would “effectively lead an international response to an invasion of earth from aliens from outer space,” the battleground electorate is more enthusiastic about the Republican if Earth ends up under intergalactic assault.
