the fundamental problem Democrats have is that while the right has an entire media ecosystem built to bash Democrats the left also has an entire media ecosystem…built to bash Democrats
Trump is receiving more Latino support than before.
And that tells me so much.
Voting for a person with an anti-immigrant and pro-deportation agenda which will undoubtedly impact you FIRST says a lot.
Missouri voters remain weird. Supporting abortion rights and paid sick leave, increasing the min wage and then voting for politicians who are diametrically opposed to both.
What will make this so much worse is that it’s hard to imagine that liberals will continue to engage in politics the same way they have the past 8 years. People are exhausted. They’ll retreat to their safe liberal cocoons and frankly who can blame them.
Roughly *67%* of voters rated the economy as "not so good/poor," per Washington Post exit polls
A shockingly poor number amid a hot labor market, booming stocks, much lower inflation, growing GDP
But widespread voter dissatisfaction w/ the economy been clear for years
She destroys him in a debate, so badly that he won’t debate again. He bungles his way through absurd rallies. He insults more than half the population. He wants to implement appalling policies. And the election is razor thin. This country is INSANE.
Republicans ran heavily for the past four years on misogyny, possibly even anticipating this moment, and it paid off for them
Because people suck
But you can’t deny reality
This is stupid. Look the map. A uniform swing like that isn't because of campaign messaging. This outcome was baked in long ago, and probably the only thing Harris herself could have done to improve it was "be a man."
People are interpreting this, with some evidence, as a generic rightward shift in the country, which will inevitably send the Dems rightward
I swear it’s like 1980 in here
Yeah, leftists who are busy gloating don’t seem to realise how over it is for them and their preferred policies now. Dems did a lot of what they wanted and got an election defeat and zero thanks for their trouble.
Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend—per Epstein’s own words on tape—is heading back to the White House. And the cable news and major papers didn’t even think that was a worthy story to report on.
There’s probably all kinds of “this and that” anlaysis to be done but ultimately I’m going with the simple: people suck, they’re evil assholes, and they are also stupid dumbshits
The end
I loathe you all
Bit me
I cannot believe what I'm seeing, but Kamala Harris is going to win New York by the thinnest margin in a generation. Looks like the state is seeing roughly a 10 point shift to the right. Neighboring New Jersey much the same — may get D+6 (down from D+16 with Biden).
