Only The Second Democrat To Lose The Popular Vote Since 1992

[Nigerianwonder]

Didn't the same middle Americe vote twice for a Kenyan with a Black family?

I think the real reason is that the Dems have veered so far left with the identity politics bullshyt that they put off most people.

Obama was still a man. An extremely likeable and charismatic one at that coming in hot off a terrible bush presidency, hurricane katrina and an unpopular war. It was a perfect storm.

Kamala is the Richie Aprille of politics

She just couldn't sell it



In the end, most people concluded they would be 'better off' under Trump which is a terrible indictment of the US political system.

And the terrible non-inspiring candidate the Dems ran.

These pundits on CNN and MSNBC are insufferable, and they wonder why your Middle America Average Joe don't fukk with them

This man literally a walking corpse and they had the audacity to go for another term/

Trump will die during his presidency book, I’m truly shocked Biden didn’t die last year

All Trump had to do was tap into white fear and anti black rehtoric. First the birtherism pt 2. Then calling her dumb, uninteligent, stupid. Then the immigration thing - they will be raping, murdering everyone. Bunch of white national bullshyt.

You will always have a shot if you play that race card with white people. Don't expect the dumb voters (many of his voters are low intelligence and uneducated) to do any research or think critically.

Agreed. That’s why Kamala shouldn’t have put so much time and resources into trying to win those people over. She should’ve focused more on people who didn’t vote for either of them.

The world is Shifting "Right". Black Peoples issue we have no Family Unit to fall back on to even mobilize.

This is key rebuild black families.

I think if there was more time to warm up to her, it would’ve went better. A blow out like this is nuts. Celebrity influence is dead also.

 

[Artfull Dodger]

Its kinda crazy fakkits like Joe Rogan have this kind of power to move the needle in an election.

More crazy than a film star (Clooney) telling the Dem party to drop a democratically elected President months before an election??

 

[Traveler]

Going on Rogan would have done nothing.

It would have made her lose even worse. Shes not likeable.

 

[darkmanp]

Lower voter turnout was a key issue. Trump got 3 million less votes (71 million) than he got in 2020. But Harris got 14 million less votes (67 million) than Biden got in 2020.

 

[Apollo Creed]

This is key rebuild black families.

I would say the establishment of a "new ethnicity and cultural identity" in which the family creation would be a paramount thing in.

Why do people take politics so seriously

 

[Artfull Dodger]

Once the enthusiasm died out after Biden dropped out and the smoke cleared, everyone remembered Kamala is a nothing candidate. They thought they could run that momentum into the election and coasted. They were doing their best when they were attacking republicans as weird and going hard on Vance. For some reason they pivoted from that and started parading Liz Cheney around Dems have no one to blame but themselves

not TheColi

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Glad I started taking politics more seriously in my early 20's during Obama's first term.

Identity Politics is rotting ppl's brain.

Hilary Clinton and Kamala Harris were bad candidates.

So what would you call Trump, since race and gender don’t mean anything?

An educated woman with spelled out policies for the middle class and young people, a war chest of money and many other qualities, lost to an 80 year man who was just air blowing a mic stand after telling people he wants to be a dictator.

You can sit back and play armchair political analyst but the answers are in front of your face.
