Tomatuh tomatah, but sure.It’s not “starting.” It’s continuing…..
I don't think it is a loss per se. I think in this election inflation caused folks who usually vote democrat to stay home not necessarily go vote Trump.And that’s fantastic. Democrats usually get most things right as I stated in my long ass diatribe up above.
But they got the culture shift, the alienation, and the messaging completely wrong. Those can be fixed but it starts with listening to the people on the ground.
Look, Democrats temporarily lost the one group of people that always rocked with them, minorities. My fear is that if they continue on the path they’re on, the next ones to go are us. Black people. And even THAT shift is starting.
Can YOU answer the question on how you can get a 20 TRILLION dollar reparations deal for just black americans signed off by ONLY black americans??
please explain how that works WITHOUT whites and others being involved in congress and the oval office??
NEW BORDER CZAR WANTS ALL THE SMOKE!!!!
Trump's Border Czar HUMILIATES Ocasio-Cortez & Entire Democrats At Hearing
Because the Dems are terrible at explaining to people all of the good they've done. It's not about who the Dems actually support. It's about who people perceive they support.
That and people are stupid. I think Mehdi Hasan hit the nail on the head about how fickle voters are.
Bingo! If this election has taught anything.
It’s that’s PRECEPTION is more important than reality when it comes to politics.
GOP presented a preception that everything was shit when in fact it wasn’t.
That’s all that was needed(and some help from Elon and Russia) to win the election.
One of the dems biggest problems is they trusted the general public to be smart enough to see past the Trump B.S. (Your kid goes to school as Steve and comes back as Laura!)
They erred badly and put too much trust in the uneducated and lazy to do their own research populace.
It costed them the election.
The general public is so dumb 1/3 pounder burgers haven't been a big hit because too many people think a 1/4 pounder is bigger because 4 is larger than 3. Those are the people we are saturatated with. I have no confidence in the ability of the masses to apply critical thinking.
And they never will and partly why they want to do away with the department of education to create even more dummies and help their election odds forever.
An educated populace is dangerous to the GOP! A dumb one is a friend and most easily manipulated.
Agree. I’ll drill down a step further, they want to change public education and if they can’t change it, they want to continue (not a slip of the tongue bc they are already doing it) trying to destroy it. At the same time, shift money and resources to private and charter schools of their choice under the guise of educational freedom and education vouchers (sound familiar?).
I’m not even talking about higher education.
The problem with your argument, is that it requires an educated populous. There are dummies that still brag about tariffs, even though it's been explained multiple times how tariffs are paid by the consumer
If you ever been in a locker room before, you know full well they weren't thinking of ANY of that shit.
Bro culture won & facts failed. I’m not saying I agree with it. I’m just saying that’s what happened.
That's a goofy take. It's the voters who voted for these candidates. The LGBT community isn't a large enough group to elect their own candidates without the support of people outside that community. If people were fed up with the LGBT community and left the Democrats for them, these people wouldn't have been elected.
Also Democrats down ballot did pretty well in this election even in battleground states. That's part of the reason these stolen election conspiracy theories are becoming popular. There wasn't widespread abandonment of the Dems across ballot just at the top of the ticket.
Furthermore, there's no swap. It's a called a "big tent" for a reason. A single party can represent more than one group. There's no reason why the Democrats can't be the preferred party for the LGBT community and the working class considering these two groups aren't at odds.
Where is it reported that Democrats who voted Republican this election said it was because of LGBT issues? I've only heard high prices being a reason people turned to Trump. If you've have sources saying otherwise, you can post them.
Well, there's no denying Democrats lost. What we're trying to figure out is where they went wrong.
People, regular people not just pundits, are saying prices are high and they don't want immigrants in the country.
The Dems did run on a tough on the border platform as shown by Jon Stewart and, perhaps, that's why they did better down ballot. The prices of things though are still too high for many.
You niggas still don't get it. Right now hardcore dems are acting like "bad bitches". Everything is somebody else's fault. Niggas was trying to warn yall for months. It's not sweet out here. Now when the shit his the fan like we said it would. Now its everything and everybody else. Yall actively a shit on the same portion of the population yall need to a in elections. Here yall tell it you're the only intelligent folks. Everybody else is an idiot, because they won't drink the koolade.Niggas had smoke the entire elections about what democrats weren’t doing.
Reparations this and Gaza that, but look who said fuck you immediately into being elected.
I’m for being critical, but the disdain towards Dems was clear, but not nearly the same about of energy towards the republicans.
I’ve been saying this throughout. The modern Democratic narcissists need to step off the stage and let the adults of the party take the wheel. The mud slinging and brattiness era is over or at minimum shouldn’t be central to proceedings going forward.You niggas still don't get it. Right now hardcore dems are acting like "bad bitches". Everything is somebody else's fault. Niggas was trying to warn yall for months. It's not sweet out here. Now when the shit his the fan like we said it would. Now its everything and everybody else.

Wrong. Without blue states some of the red states would be poorer than some African countries.
Several states that typically vote Republican (“red states”) receive more in federal funding than they contribute in federal taxes. This indicates a net positive balance, meaning they are subsidized by the federal government. According to a 2024 analysis by MoneyGeek, the following red states are among the most federally dependent:
1.West Virginia: Receives $2.91 for every dollar paid in federal taxes.
2.Alaska: Receives $2.65 per dollar.
3.Mississippi: Receives $2.66 per dollar.
4.Alabama: Receives $1.90 per dollar.
5.Kentucky: Receives $1.68 per dollar.
6.Arizona: Receives $1.62 per dollar.
7.Montana: Receives $1.43 per dollar.
These figures highlight the extent to which these states rely on federal funding relative to their tax contributions.

Well, a lot of traditional men are about to get their "we hate gay people" reward from Republicans. I hope it was worth the national stop and frisk, complete immunity for police to bash their son's skulls in and the mass deportations for their abuelas.
But hey, they showed them gays lol.
Without ever truly knowing this, everything inside of me felt the cheating that went on during this election is unprecedented.Glad to see some of the bros on the board have finally found Greg....Dude is solid and Dick Gregory co-signed him......

This shit is surprised, but not surprised he is the one that discoved this bull shit.....
