2024 United States Presidential Election Megathread

[Samori Toure]

Latinos, Arabs and Asians and white women.

But they will blame Black American men,

The very fact that folks even treated Trump serious enough to be a politician, let alone run for president is the consequences of disinformation. How the fukk do you think he got to where he is now? By being honest about being a fraudster? By being honest about being a rapist?

Y'all really need to stop focusing on the margin of loss as if it's something that could've been changed.

If the country is willing to elect someone into power who's at the wrong end of the spectrum of humanity, then disinformation is the fuel that powered that. It powered already ideals and beliefs that folks had, it harnessed them and gave them back a sense of belonging and entitlement that they so desperately think they deserve.

I'm not the one with the blind spots

The flaw in your argument is the fact that you think people are being deceived or lying to themselves. This is what I mean with the head in the sand shyt

Most of the people voting for Trump know exactly who and what he is. They just don't care. I knew a lot of yall was doomed when I saw how hard y'all relied on the Roe v Wade overturn to decimate Trump's female vote. And what happened? The nikkas female vote increased and nikkas told you that shyt wasn't as big a deal as you think

The issue with relying so much on the disinformation argument is you think Trump fans are being deceived when it's you who are deceiving yourselves

Y'all are looking like the " my girl would never cheat on me" nikka when your girlfriend is the neighborhood ho

 

[RamsayBolton]

when do we get detailed demographic breakdowns of who voted which way? or are these exit polls all we get?

 

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

Dems have to do a lot of soul searching.

They lost their soul the moment they stopped listening to the everyday, working man and started pandering to the loonies such as the college educated feminazis, the deranged LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ+-= mafia and theneoconlib, professional managerial classes.

 

[TOAD99]

Man next election we better not hear shyt about early polls or about celebrities like Taylor swift or Beyoncé

That clearly means shyt

 

[Primetime21]

Hillary Clinton is the most polarizing candidate the Dems have put out in the 21st century.

Kamala was never popular or a galvanizing force. She bowed out of the 2020 Dem primary before fukking Cory Booker.

You don't have to be a unicorn, just don't be those two. They're bad candidates, period.

Two things can be true you know that right? They can be “bad” candidates and white women still are not voting in mass for a female candidate. A state race cant be compared to the appeal required to win a general election.

 

[Apollo Creed]

That ad was brutal. I just assumed it was true cuz in California they do shyt like that.

Mark Cuban explained the cause of inflation better than anyone. Just sad.

No more Obama. Once obamacare is gone, him and Michelle need to just vanish. Especially if Michelle is not going to run. They just constantly reminded ppl that kamala is not them. She was always a horrible candidate. They saw what he did to Hillary and really thought get a more unpopular woman who's a worse politician and expect different results m country does not want a woman.

Breh you even had it where folka felt Tim Walz would be the real reason for victory/prez because how much better he was.

The DNC convention was pretty much peolle feeling good emotionally seeing people they like or where better than Kamala thus thry felt a bit more comfort in supporting a shyt candidate

 

[Tony D'Amato]

I had two (2) women tell me this exact thing within the last 5 days, I know both personally, and both said and I quote, "women are too emotional, a man should be leading this country." I'm sure many other women share these same thoughts and feelings across the country. Women have told us with their votes they don't want a woman president, I think it's time the Dems move on from that.

RGB died on the bench waiting for it to happen.

The 2020 version of Joe Biden, that could actually talk and defend his presidency (which has been hella underrated), probably wins. But he put trannys in positions in his administration and looked ridiculous, so he probably woulda loss too

 

[Spades Of Aces]

I just saw this sentiment posted in r/politics and I agree: Dems need to stop trying to push a female candidate.

The unfortunate truth is that many people, regardless of gender, don't believe that any woman should be the leader of the U.S.

Many women across racial lines simply believe that only a man should run the country. Call it internalized misogyny, call it whatever you want, but it is what it is.

I think this is the simple truth of the matter. But I do wonder, would have Michelle Obama had a better chance under these circumstances.

 

[Apollo Creed]

I called it out in her Latino Men Policy thread

THE FACT IT SAID LATINO MEN AND THEIR FAMILIES WHILE THE BLACK MEN POLICY ONLY SAID BLACK MEN TELLS YOU THERE IS NK COMMUNITY WE ARE OUT HERE ALONE

 

[JLova]

Another point. The dems got smoked this election. If they think this is on black men then they'll continue to get boat raced.

This was an overwhelming rejection of a candidate and her ideologies.

The dems have to go back to the drawing board. Look at these numbers amd see why they really got smacked up instead of blaming black men.

Don’t run a black woman. Lol at ideologies. It’s not that complicated. Thry rejected a black woman vs a white supremacist. Stop letting people off the hook.

 

[O.Red]

What kind of silly ass shyt is this, as if this isn't literally what Conservatives do?

Trump's entire campaign was attack, ostracize and browbeat differing opinions. His campaign M.O. was literally social violence.

Unless you're trying to say that Trump does it better and women need to step up their games to match the hills he chooses to die on.

Take it back to the post I quoted. It's the hills they choose to die on + the ridiculous lengths they go dying on them

You'd think lgbtq was 60% of the population the way Dems rally behind that shyt

 

[African Peasant]

I thought this back in 2020, but it's even more pertinent now: the Dems need a populist, left-wing version of Trump. I suspect that the ethnicity wouldn't matter, but (unfortunately) it could only be a male.

This corporate, moderate left, Obama/Clinton-era shyt is DONE if the democrats ever want another shot.

Dems need a fiery populist with a backbone who can actually appeal to everyday working-class Americans, instead of constantly relying on upper middle class educated people from the suburbs.

This election showed that they can't rely on the minority vote anymore.

You need a tall white male in his late 40's/early 50's with a wife and kids, who talks shyt like Trump but defend some social programs.

All that fly shyt dems tried in the last 15 years ain't gonna work

Immigration, government spending (weapons to countries), and not having a primary sealed the deal. I wonder if Trump will make good on his promise to abolish the Department of Education. We knew the misinformation would ramp up since 2020 and the Dems just sat on their hands.

This election should be studied. Tons of people showed up to Kamala rallies. Low turnouts at Trump rallies. Wasted money on celebrity appearances. Multiple Dems and celebrities (Clooney) calling for Biden's resignation.
