2024 U.S. Presidential Election Thread: Donald Trump wins & will return to the White House; GOP wins U.S. Senate & U.S. House

I think the universe is punishing us for being surrounded by racists who use the economy as an excuse to uplift leaders who will punish all those that fall in the “other” category.

Bernie was not going to convince your people in northern Georgia to vote for him over someone they would see as the same but without that special racist twist that Donald gives them.

I think racism/Misogyny/xenophobia played the biggest part, but we cant keep discontinuing economic anxiety. I’ve been guilty of it myself.

Racism doesn’t explain the shift in Latinos and black men for Trump. I also think the 15 million drop in her popular vote from 2020 numbers requires a more nuanced explanation.

Facts… Regardless black folk will be alright

Ok. So how long before trump starts beefing with Musk and brainworm?

Musk will be marginalized and beefing with Trump by March

Is it policy or is it not ?

If Newsome is the candidate, does it erase inflation ? Gaza ? Immigration ?

let's be honest, breh; does the average american voter actually understand policy? or do they understand slogans?

therein lies the problem. peoples' perceptions of these parties is from the image they present, and the easily digestible slogans that pass for policy proposals. are we really surprised republicans are able to win that battle?

I predict trump goes fast and furious with things in his first 100 days. Then checks out and golfs the remainder of his term while his white man faction of crazies go wild on our institutions.

First term was all investigations and chaos. He was constantly attacking the media.

So how does act 2 go? On a day to day basis?. He won't be under any investigations anymore. No impeachment shyt.

It has some sort Twilight Zone type of ending for liberal Gen Xer and Millennials who have waiting for the older conservative Greatest Generation and Boomers to die out so they can be the majority for only have conservative young Gen Zers replaced the Boomers and Greatest Generation.

People have been talking about how the alt right pipeline is affecting young men for over a decade now. Democrats didn't take it seriously.

I honestly don't think brainwork makes it Jan 6th... Trump got what he needed from him and that's to concede his base..

Yeah i can see trump kicking him to the curb on some, I didn't know that gentleman.

Brown losing really tanks a lot of these "Dems can't move left, they have to be populist" arguments I'm seeing... It's clearly not that simple.

Yeah, seems like zero chance Trump would keep a guy like that around, RFK either.

Crazy how Obama was the last candidate dems actually for because they actually liked the message. Hillary,Biden and Harris were just guys they had to vote for in order to stop a literal fascist.

I'm not even sure Obama would win in the current environment.

You have to remember. social media in 2008 wasn't what it is now.

yeah, pretty much. his handlers are gonna put in place the framework to work as shadow presidents, while he golfs and holds his stupid rallies

but i'll say this. if the republicans get in there, pass a tax cut, pass a real border bill (which i hope they do), economy seems to improve, stock market keeps going up...dems are looking bad for the immediate future. i mean, now we know that protecting abortion ain't shyt so what the fukk are we left to counter with?

Sure it does Lol..... Latinos are wannabe cacs. They love Trump's tough guy act. Latinos have been moving to the GOP further and further every election..

Will be interesting to see where that number ends up, still a lot of votes left out there and people have been comparing to the final numbers from 2020.

You kidding me?

Trump is about to give him unlimited funds

He'll cut Nasa and Make Space X the new Nasa

All government vehicles will be Cybertrucks

He's going to get every government contract

He'll convince trump to let him test out his microchips in people's brains

Elon is a kid in the 90's locked inside a Toy's R Us... Or as Gambit would say... hebouttomakeanameforhimself
