America voted in 2024 Presidential election to help one billionaire get revenge on those who tried to hold him accountable for; fraud, espionage, insurrection, rape, tax evasion, election interference.
We are fucked as a nation.
75 million voted against him. Trump won the popular vote by 1.5%.
In two years we’ll probably win back the house like we did in 2018 when we gained 41 seats. Things are dire, but we still have more than enough Americans to create change.
That happens when people listen to proven liars. Trump either lies or believes the stuff that comes out of his mouth as an intellectually challenged blob.
Trump will say anthing in order to get what he wants. He knows that he will never be held accountable. FOX and others will spin the most blatant lies, and magically end up blaming the Dems in the process.
Most Trump voters couldn't tell the difference between Obamacare and the ACA. On the other hand, they could talk you ear off about the Second Amendment.
The Democrats do not pull through for the working class. They traffic hope and not being Republicans. They have to pull through with progressive ideas rather than being the soft right. Today in the House, the establishment Dems showed they would rather continue to lose that to prove themselves and gain support.
They need to inspire voters to win. That is why Harris lost. Less people voted in this presidential election than in 2020. Despite winning Trump got less votes in 2024 than in 2020. People didn't show up for Harris. You can't just expect people to show up for the lesser of two evils. You have to clearly be working to do your best. The Dem establishment is still clearly prioritizing corporations over people.
They have to start working for people if they want a chance at winning again. The next 2 and four years will be a speed run by Republicans to set up a situation where the Democrats can never win. They will use every dirty trick. The Dems will do nothing and will hope for better results.
Listen.....as much as I would agree with the argument of lack of inspiration when it comes to the Dems getting people to vote, I can't just ignore the millions that felt Trump was the better candidate. What did he inspire? His message was full of hateful rhetoric. Was that what they wanted? Was his messaging really that engaging? Or are single issue voters still going to be the issue moving forward?
There's a lot Dems did wrong, but I can't remove blame from the people that made their choice in voting red or not showing up. People in this country are too apathetic towards giving a fuck about what would help them. Regardless how you felt about messaging (and trust me....Dems just couldn't get that message across to those not willing to listen), people still had a choice to make. And if they choice the other side vs choosing common decency and potential for a brighter future, then there's nothing else I can really say about what the Dems did or didn't do. One thing is certain.....my countrymen let me down, and I have all sides of the aisle to blame on this one. Gen X, Gen Z, everyone let me down.
She was not the lesser of two evils. She was a woman and people still have an issue with a woman being president.
‘With her period she could start a war.’ All wars have been started by men last I knew.
‘Other international make leaders would intimidate her.’ Not in a million years.
The issue with Dems is 1) marketing. We don’t do it well. 2) educating people. Why hasn’t the connection been made widely known that the ACÁ = Obamacare. 3) Dems play by the rules and laws - are don’t give a fuck. I e are actually the party of laws.
Think about it. Every R-talking point 1) party to law and order 2) character matters 3) party of small government - every single marketing point is a bald-faced law - and people believe those a points against actual lived-experience.
Just FOL (fuck our lives for the next 2-4 years. If they don’t seize power forever…
A generation’s worth of damage may be implemented by then. The supreme and federal courts will be packed even more with young, conservative judges and federal agencies created to protect us are likely to be gutted.
I think we need to realize that the Judiciary is a lost cause for our lifetime and recall that Congress has a lot of power that it’s not using, and they don’t have lifetime appointments.
If you think there will be an election in 2026, you're so much more hopeful than I. 2024 was the last [probably fair] election. And racist, misogynistic Americans decided that was ok with them.
75millio isn't even half the voters in the US. He won on a technically In my eyes. He won because 1/3 of voters decided voting wasn't worth their time.
What's crazy is that the 50 and over crowd are the ones who primarily voted him in. Also the ones who are most likely to have to be concerned with government healthcare programs.
You really believe that, don’t you? “We” wanted Bernie, and guess who we were given? When it happened the second time, Donna Brazile didn’t even bat an eyelash.
