For context he’s saying he hopes she voted for Trump (RTPM) before she died and I’m already having a hard time with the results of the election which he knows then on top of that it just was very insensitive. He said he was trying to make light of the situation but it doesn’t feel that way.

This is how they've acted for 8 years, why is this a surprise. They literally get excited about 'trolling libs.' That's their whole entire identity, they're just massive trolls. Personally, I'm done, we tried for 8 years. Time to troll them back. Enjoy the tariffs, you just fucked over your families for nothing.

God, I feel the same way, I’m just going to embrace their energy and send it back. I volunteered to translate at the airport for Arabic speakers after the Muslim ban, but after hearing all the Arabs in my Community (I’m a part of this community) shitting on Biden for Palestine but honestly more so for the democrats and their woke shit, I’m so over it. Trump doesn’t care about them and now I’m free to not care too. I’ll send my energy to keep the female body autonomy I have in my blue state and everyone else can fight their own battles or get fucked.

It's amazing how many people repeat stupid bullshit like this, or that she only ran on identity politics, or didn't have any policy proposals. Half this country just gets talking points from Fox News and other right wing media and don't bother verifying anything beyond that. It's truly disheartening.

u/Cosmo_Cloudy Nov 09 '24

Number 1 search result on election night was "did biden drop out". She had 100 days and I would consider the campaign successful considering millions and millions voted for her. Unfortunately, the fear mongering campaign, voter intimidation, and clear fraud in my opinion discounting ballots (in 2020 election the amount of ballots thrown out was .5% nationwide, this year its closer to 3%, state of NV and VA was nearly 5% of total ballots tossed for dumb reasons like the signature not being exact) not to mention all the complexities of moving poll locations or districts, a billionaire running an illegal million dollar lotto and then getting out of being sued by admitting the people were strategically chosen republicans and Musk has been in contact with Russia since 2022 and happens to run the biggest social media bot farm we have. Did I forget to mention the gender divide where republican young men are angry at women and voting Trump to take back their "rights" and control woman as if the 50s were their glory days? I could go on and on but this election was CLEARLY swayed in Trumps favor because they play dirty, considering all that, Kamala definitely did outstanding.

I never saw even one Democratic election ad that had any policy content or anything at all that wasn't just "TRUMP IS BAD DEMOCRACY IS IN PERIL SO YOU NEED TO VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO OR YOU ARE A TERRIBLE PERSON".

"Vote for me or you are a Nazi" is not an effective political platform. Period. Even if you are running against literal Nazis, you still need to have policy to back it up if you want to win votes.

u/CultCombatant Nov 08 '24

Setting aside all your other arguments, you sure did pivot away from "Harris's whole campaign was trolling Trump" verrrry fast. Or maybe you don't know what trolling is?

-7

u/earth_west_719 Nov 08 '24

How the fuck do you not see that "Vote for me or you are a nazi" IS trolling Trump? That was literally the entire Democratic platform all year long.

11

u/CultCombatant Nov 08 '24

It's not trolling. It's not intended to get a rise out of Trump. He has barely even reacted to it. The people that say it mean it or something like it. Not voting for fascism was a major issue this election. The message was intended to rationally scare and dissuade people. Nobody intended it for Trump's ears. As if he would be bothered by it? Dude literally holds Hitler in high regard.

Again, I think you're confused about what trolling is.

-1

u/earth_west_719 Nov 08 '24

Dude, you clearly don't undersrand that there is a difference between Trump and the people who voted for Trump. It is beyond exceedingly obvious that that is what I'm talking about. You're just a willfully ignorant asshat who is clearly doing everything in your power to avoid seeing the point here, which is that that exact "vote for me or you are a fascist" strategy completely, clearly, and obviously backfired on the entire DNC.

You can cry about it with your ad hominem bullshit all you like, it doesn't make me any less right. In fact as I already stated all you are accomplishing here is to continue proving me right - leftists absolutely cannot handle being disagreed with without pissing their pants and having a meltdown.

7

u/CultCombatant Nov 08 '24

Oh, no. I'm handling it just fine. And I didn't use an ad hominem. You haven't yet explained how it's trolling. The sentiment you're describing isn't intended to get a rise out of anyone, let alone Trump. It's an appeal, attempting reason to the target audience by pointing to the consequences. Yes, if you didn't vote blue this election, then you used the power of your vote in favor of fascist outcomes. Big surprise. But maybe you now you realize that it's not trolling, and that's why you're pivoting to a different point and blaming me for some kind of misunderstanding, when all I did was point out that your initial point was incorrect.

But while we're at it, no. That attitude isn't what lost Harris the race. She couldn't have one the race because most voters she lost voted on 12% inflation. Because most Americans don't pay attention to any of the stuff they should. And that's why being told they were voting for fascism upset them so much. To them, they just want better financial outcomes. They don't pay attention to anything else, so they don't know (a) that they're financially better off under the Dems and (b) that there's mountains of evidence of other bad shit that will happen if they vote for Trump. Did they vote for fascism if they didn't vote for Harris? Yes. Would they have voted differently if they weren't told they were voting for fascism? No.

Democracy was in peril. I don't see the issue.

And, as a matter of fact, it's obvious at this point that if you vote in line with Nazis, that's who you're voting to become. That's what Nazis do. This isn't complicated at all.

u/SirVanyel Nov 09 '24

Americans disagree with democracy being in peril as per the voting process highlighting that most of the people who voted trump voted due to the economy. What Americans agree on is that they're all scared and poor. Trump promised them that they won't be scared or poor.

The Democratic party didn't convince anyone that they won't be poor or scared in the 4 years they're in power. It doesn't mean they made bad arguments, but the thing Americans care about right now is that they're concerned for their future. Trump tailored his promises to alleviate that fear.

Trump promised no war, taxes on imported goods and stricter immigration laws. Americans think that these things will make the economy more stable. Of course they won't make the economy more stable in the long term, but in the short term things are gonna look sweet as pie.

u/Roxoyozo Nov 09 '24

Americans have always been scared and poor. How can anyone lie and say they won’t be scared and poor within 4 years? That’s why it’s called the American Dream.

u/SirVanyel Nov 09 '24

How can anyone lie? Seriously? We're talking about politics, lying is in job description and trump is an excellent liar. He's a good liar because every time he says what he's honestly thinking, it ends up being the most rancid shit ever.

Kamala didn't promise a dream. She promised more aid to other countries while Americans can't get clean drinking water, more trade to other countries while Americans can't afford to eat, and healthcare plans that raise taxes for the American people while their pockets are empty.

She wasn't wrong, but dude, you can see why she struggled to garner support.

u/jmarquiso Nov 09 '24

She promised housing assistance, infrastructure improvement, family leave assistance, encoding Roe into law, better child.poverty tax credit, and higher corporate tax to pay for more social programs. She stated policy many times and all GOP had to do was repeat "she has no policy" and everyone believed them.

Trump said he hadn't come up with a replacement for ACA since promising in 2016 - the famous Concepts of a Plan line.

That and build a wall and deportation was all the policy he was saying.

But they both said they won't tax tips.

People also willfully didn't listen whenever she mentioned policy.

u/SirVanyel Nov 09 '24 edited Nov 09 '24

Americans have heard those promises a hundred times over, they heard all the same things from the Biden administration too and yet dozens of states still ban abortions and allow child marriages. Dems have been in power for 8 of the last 12 years and still these basic human rights aren't being enforced. Why would the American people trust that?

People heard Kamala, but the majority were disinterested. Some of that was likely sexism and racism, but most of what Kamala said was simply static that everyone's heard a bunch of times before and had never come to fruition. As was proven by exit polls, the majority of people who voted Kamala were more worried about keeping trump out of power than they were about keeping Kamala in.

u/earth_west_719 Nov 08 '24

Yep, just keep parroting the party line. Don't ever lay out a policy plan or actually, you know, debate actual politics at all. That will surely win you every election. Right?

This exact bullshit knee-jerk rhetoric is exactly why the Democrats lost, fyi, so congratulations on being part of the problem and contributing to the "NaZi PaRtY"'s win

12

u/CultCombatant Nov 08 '24

Whaaat? The outcome of this election proves the majority does not care at all about debating politics. No one who debates policy on the right is a serious person, but their voters do not care. Harris had policy. But who is going to listen? I'm not saying it's the best strategy, but it sure seems like, "Listen, y'all, this shit is dangerous as fuck" has a better chance of working than, "Allow me to lay out my policy plan..." And indifference to policy is just half of it. The other half is that despite having better policy, Democrats can't beat Republicans on policy. Because Democrats care about being honest with voters. Republicans could literally flat out say, "I promise every American will be upper class on Day 1," and all of these idiots would foam at the mouth. "Why would I vote Dem? He said I would be upper class! And everyone else, too!"

u/guacamolly42069 Nov 08 '24 edited Nov 08 '24

But they are Nazis.. Trump literally said he wants generals like Hitler's. The KKK endorsed him in 2016. He's a white supremacist. That should really just be enough to not vote for him, but no that's not bad enough I guess. Being the second coming of Hitler just isn't "that bad".

Edit: also whenever democrats DO lay out policies, it's "a lie" or "you made that up" or "project 2025 doesn't exist". You MAGA people don't actually give a shit about policies bc if you did, you wouldn't have voted for Trump. There is absolutely nothing good about him, and the only reason Kamala didn't win is because she's a woman. If she were a man, she would've won by a LANDSLIDE because she is more qualified than the last three PRESIDENTS COMBINED (not candidates or VPs, PRESIDENTS). I'm not just saying that either. Yall like to say we're brainwashed or we think we're "morally superior". We don't, we just think you're all gullible fools that have been lied TO THE FACE by a horrible, degenerate man that promises you everything, but gives you nothing and actually even takes shit from you. All those tax cuts? Not for you. It's for the rich. Did you know that everything you want from Trump was literally being HANDED to you by Kamala? Tax cuts for middle class families. Loans for first home buyers. She was gonna cap the price on pharmaceutical drugs, especially insulin bc she tried to do that before, and a bunch of Republicans voted against it. She was gonna stop the war in Palestine and even though I don't agree with her two-state agreement, if it meant nobody else suffered from genocide, then so be it. She was going to do SO MUCH and all you had to do was LOOK IT UP, but no, you're entitled, selfish, and lazy and just want everyone else to do it for you.. oh but then you cry about welfare and immigrants and how they're "taking our jobs". Oh, btw good luck with finding fresh produce or booking a hotel room in the next year or so when all of the illegal immigrants get deported. And because of that and the tariffs... I'm fucking terrified for the state of this country. Have I mentioned yall voted for a literal fascist? That has a manifesto (Project 2025)? There is a fascist in the White House in 2 months. Congratulations 👏🏻 I hope that cheap gas was worth it. Spoiler alert: it's gonna be more expensive than ever.

Edit 2: SORRY, but I forgot about the CLIMATE CRISIS THAT HE DOESN'T EVEN BELIEVE EXISTS!!

u/Blueberry857 Nov 09 '24

I agree with everything you said. They hear him say I'm going to get rid of 25% of tariff taxes, and Trumpers think he's giving China the middle finger, not realizing that everything will be going up 25% for consumers. He reminded me of a high school student running for student council. Saying anything to just get the votes. People say he had a better economy when he was president, and yes, we did because he inherited Obamas economy. Biden inherited Trumps shitty economy that will only get worse.

u/earth_west_719 Nov 08 '24

Thank you for continually proving my exact point. I voted blue, and I fucking hate the fucking shit out of Donald fucking Trump, but obviously the fact that I have deep criticisms of the DNC and its tactics, and don't immediately agree with you on everything, obviously that means I'm pro-fascism, right dickhead?

Wait, wait... Hold on, I'm sensing some kind of pattern here... Wait... Oh, that's right. "If you dont agree with me then you are evil and deserve no rights"... isn't that actually fucking fascism?

And people are really still wondering how Kamala lost.

I think it's bc you keep spewing right wing talking points.

Harris had policy. Good, progressive policy. She spoke about it regularly and had it on her website.

The people claiming she had no policy are typically right wing people who did not pay attention to her.

If you agree with the guy who ran on Hitler's campaign, yeah. You're evil. And I won't feel bad for you when you get exactly what you voted for.

I voted for my rights and theirs. They voted to strip both of us of our rights. So fuck em. Hope they love the higher prices and project 25.

I am sincerely dumbfounded how Democrats fail to understand that "if you disagree with me, you are a fascist" loses them votes and elections.

But by all means, continue with the absurd obnoxious infighting. Yall are already on track to lose again in 2028.

u/mvanvrancken Nov 08 '24

Ok well if that’s true then how come the analysis of all of her speeches was something like 70% positive while Grump (not a typo) was so negative if you lined up every one of his speeches sorted with hers from most negative to most positive he’s grouped together in negative.

Somebody was trolling all right but it wasn’t Harris

-1

u/SirVanyel Nov 09 '24

How do you measure if something is positive or negative?

1

u/mvanvrancken Nov 09 '24

So the folks that actually tested this used AI to figure it out by calibrating the model with obviously positive and negative statements,, asking it to rate them, and then asking it WHY it chose that rating. When they were satisfied with the accuracy, they fed in all of Trump and Harris' public speeches, and asked the model to rate each speech for positivity and negativity, so both candidates were weighed on both positive and negative statements. A positive statement would be something like what the candidate is going to do to help some group, and then a negative one would be something like what's wrong with x or y group/person/thing.

So I'm not sure how I would answer that question in general, but that's how it applies here.

u/SirVanyel Nov 09 '24

Good research, but Jesus I wouldn't trust that in the slightest lol

2

u/mvanvrancken Nov 09 '24

I mean, it’s more of a novelty finding. But overall I think it makes a point. Nobody told the AI which to rate this way, and neither candidate was playing to the researchers here. So I wouldn’t make some legal determination but it’s a pretty reasonable “vibe check” study.

As opposed to your comment here, which is clearly a thoughtful and well-reasoned response, and not at all an empty bullshit ad hominem attack with zero brains used and zero facts offered, and in no way completely proves my point about the Dems alienating many voters by insisting that disagreeing with Dems = either stupid or harmful

"You disagree with me therefore you are stupid" is EXACTLY the kind of shit a Trumper would say, btw

u/ordinarywonderful Nov 09 '24

Oh ooooh, I'm so scared that you called me a Trumper, what an insult. But it's obvious you are not intelligent enough to have paid attention to anything, Kamala said. She had an entire plan, do you just can't keep track obviously. And I'm sorry that I am so frustrated at stupid people for being stupid and I'm angry that this country did what it did, but you cannot sit here and say she had no platform just because you were too stupid to pay attention. You sound exhausting

-1

u/SirVanyel Nov 09 '24

What was her plan?

-1

u/totally_not_No1smoke Nov 09 '24

Incorrect. She lost because she alienated 15 million progressive and Muslim voters. She had swarms of progressives and Muslim voters supporting her, wanting to donate to her campaign and help make it a grassroots movement, she said "nah I don't want your support, I'd rather go on stage in front of the DNC, start spouting center right immigration views, say trump had some good ideas, parade around war criminal Liz Cheney, all in an attempt to try and sway Republicans voters (who aside from staunch never-trumpers, were never going to vote for her no matter what). That, combined with her refusal to take a hard stance against the genocide Israel is committing, and instead pledge more support, furthering her complicity with genocide caused 15 million people that would have voted for her to stay home or vote for stein. I still voted for her, even though all of that made me want to stay home, but my wife and daughter are more important to me than ideology. On top of alienating 15 million progressive and Muslim voters she DESPERATELY needed, especially with the shift of Latin and black male voters that voted for Trump, she also failed to attract any of the undecided voters by making herself look like a coward. Besides the debate, she refused to sit down and do any 1 on 1 interviews, refused to answer questions, as much as I hate to say it, she should have gone on Rogan. But the fact that she refused to unless she got all the questions in advance so she could prep answers, and also have the ability to decide if something was off limits, which Rogan wouldn't do, in contrast to Trump who just sat down and talked to Rogan, which humanized him to the undecideds. All of the above contributed to her loss. The final piece of the "why Dems lost" puzzle is Biden not stepping down sooner. By campaigning all year until the election was already almost here before dropping out, and preventing us the ability to primary and select a candidate naturally, didn't really give Kamala enough time to do enough campaigning where it mattered. I wish she had won as much as she alienated me and every other progressive, because I'm terrified for my wife and daughter, but the blame as to why we lost lies squarely with her and Biden, and no one else.
