    You're sure you want to keep that as your final answer?

    You know, it is hard to lose, we understand. Maybe it is better to get on the winner's bandwagon like many of the Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, and Bayern Munich fans.

    Check out the top-rated cable news show, Gutfeld, for a recap of Harris's awesome election performance.

    No, it was a 36% shift.

    Who knew Idiocracy was a documentary?

    Right, but thats only a 1% increase in the electorate.
    And since most LGBT live in the big cities, which already lean heavily Democrat, that wont put a major dent into the final EC vote

    You tell me

    It's a landslide. The enemy from within was a new Senator who was a congressman who knew the Russia hoax was a hoax and went with it. Former intelligence folks signing off on claims that weren't true. The eating pets wasn't true but then again going into someone's home and taking their pets probably didn't help did it?

    In other words, you are saying it had nothing to do with inflation or the economy.

    it was just another example of the media force-memeing a tired “DATS RACIST” scandal that nobody actually cares about.
    In fact it’s pretty insulting to think that Hispanic people are pawns who will vote based on what a comedian said rather than what they understand their own interests to be. Also, these are people who left Puerto Rico generations ago and don’t necessarily have a strong connection with it. Liberal whites found it mean and insulating but they didn’t bother thinking deeply about why it should matter to American Hispanics.

    Just like the JFK files. They're all open now thanks to his heroic efforts in his last administration.

    I suspect that what amounts to a condensed campaign for her significantly hurt the results. She was forced to focus on fewer states.

    That doesn't excuse other things like failing to distinguish herself from the Biden administration, which is always a problem for VPs who are running for president.

    There are a lot of root causes here.

    One thing I’m interested to see whether Hollywood and video game companies get the message that their male audience will largely reject the political messaging that dominates so much of their media. They’ve lost so much money on many big IP productions in recent years have been in complete denial about what their audience actually wants.
    Making a conscious decision to not articulate concrete answers to specific policy questions was a bad decision. It made her look spineless. Not like a leader.

    parading out celebrities? Bad choice in an election with large swaths of the population frustrated with out of touch elites.

    Talking down to men. Having her sycophants nag men into voting for her. Men are tired of being nagged by the media and politicians.

    overestimating to the degree that women would be motivated to protect the aboriton rights of women in other states.

    Typical from you guys. Cover your ears and lalalah your life away, dude.

    Sure, keep ignoring the fact that your ideology pushes voters away and blame all on inflation. One party hugely benefits from that, by the way.

    You guys just confirmed my point that you are 100% unable to reflect on yourselves and do some self-criticism. It's amazing, really. And the right is supposed to be the close-minded side? Hahaha.

    I wonder if one day you will realize that calling regular people nazis is a TERRIBLE strategy.

    What works for Trump doesn’t work for Kamala. You don’t get that? She’s gotta do something different.

    Trump can make Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock look like anti-elite counter culture figures. Harris can’t do that with her celebrity friends.

    we are talking about political strategy here.

    It is a terrible strategy.

    I woke up on Wednesday morning realizing I was in the minority. I'm not nearly aggressive enough, I don't want people different than me to be ostracized and I'm not self-centered enough.

    He’s also quite literally not a nazi or fascist. For one he doesn’t have a paramilitary group backing him that violently suppresses opposition groups on the streets.

    And he’s not founding his ideology on violent military expansion either. These are fundamentals of fascism.

    he’s a nationalist/populist with some authoritarian tendencies relative to democratic norms but that’s not nazism or fascism.
