7/ This time, Democrats won. We stopped Trump from being able to cut taxes for billionaires. But Elon’s ability to kill a bill on China that would hurt his bank account shows you exactly who Republicans work for. It’s not you. It’s the billionaires and special interests who don’t give a shit about you. Democrats can win—but we need to show up & expose this corruption every. single. time.
I’m disappointed in our country. The standard to be a leader has hit the floor. Hate has inspired so many people. Lies and fear won.
Can’t spend all day complaining though.
Let’s see what change will come. There are no excuses. He has all of the power.
It's not just that Trump won. It's that Joe Rogan, Dana White and Brett Favre won. Jailed insurrectionists won. The Alitos and the Thomases won. Vladimir Putin won. Racism won. Misogyny won. Sexism won. Global warming won. Xenophobia won. Most of all: Fear Won. That's what hurts.
Trump winning was a team effort brought to us by:
1. Corporate media normalizing Trump
2. Merrick Garland's failure to swiftly prosecute Trump
3. Trump's oligarchs like Elon Musk
4. The depravity of the GOP as a party
5. Sexism and racism.
BREAKING: Almost all votes in from Douglas County, Georgia where Kamala Harris is outrunning President Biden’s numbers by more than 5%. This is suburban Georgia and another example that suburban areas are trending towards Kamala Harris. Bad news for the Trump campaign.
NBC News exit poll: National gender gap is 21 points.
Harris is winning women by 12 points (55-43%) and Trump is winning men by 9 points (53-44%). Women are a slightly larger share of the electorate.
BREAKING - 5-point shift to Harris in suburban Atlanta's Fayette County
With 80% in, he's only up by 2. He won it by 7 in 2020.
If Trump loses ground in these suburban/exurban counties around major metros, he will lose Georgia, multiple other states, and the election.
Exit polls on two different networks indicating that a top concern among voters today is protecting American democracy may just be the best news the Harris campaign has gotten in a month, even though it is only an exit poll
If America understands the stakes now, Trump cannot win
And be warned: Trump will surely declare himself the winner tomorrow before all the votes are counted.
He’s going to take advantage of a phenomenon called the “red mirage.”
This dirty election night trick doesn’t work if you know it’s coming.
