  • I would've posted this no matter how the election turned out. But what went wrong four anti Trump brigade? 

    In my opinion, the democrats went too far to the left Bill Maher is correct. Also the left comma more so than the right in my opinion comma what way over the top with the hate speech.

    Not sure the thread will survive without everybody getting nasty with each other, but let's try.

    Harris did not run a campaign that was "too far left". Look at her stances on immigration and Israel. Basically the same as Trump with less hate towards immigrants, Palestinians. 

    There are countless polls showing Americans being in support of "liberal" policies when asked in a vacuum. Those policies are popular. Abortion rights just won in 7 of 10 states. It even had a majority of support in Florida but they needed 60% to win. 

    I think the problem was she didn't distinguish/ separate herself enough from Biden. Maybe hard to do as his VP, but it needed done. 

    She also just wasn't that appealing of a candidate. Most of the excitement was "at least it's not Biden" excitement. And considering all the baggage Trump had, and that he picked Vance, and also ran a bad campaign, it's even worse she lost.

    Actually she didn't even run a campaign. She didn't have a primary. They kept her out of sight because her cackling annoys people. She let her surrogates go out there attacking Trump for being a Nazi a racist and misogynist a dictator blah blah blah all of which was b*******. And whether they are her surrogates or the hard left of the party who supported her.. most normal people believe that a man has a dick and a woman has a p****. Most normal people don't think biological men should be playing women's sports. Most normal people are opposed to an unlimited flood of illegals crossing the border and realize that was her job for the last 4 years. Most normal people believe that the country was on the wrong track and whose job was that to fix? And why didn't she? And how is it impossible for her to answer the question did she or didn't she notice that Joe Biden's mind was falling apart? Why couldn't she answer the question what's the difference between a man and a woman? I know you enjoy the spin Woody but most people don't. Not enough people were choked up by the idea she'd be the first this or that. And fortunately for the country you people that are absorbed with abortion couldn't really tie Bernie Moreno or JD's statements on it to president Trump. Fortunately for us on what serves as the right you guys didn't have a primary in which case I think Gavin Newsom would have mopped the floor with her. Add to another point I think Bernie Moreno would have mopped the floor with Sharon Brown that he not been so outside the public view on abortion.

  • And she couldn't even play the I'm a Democrat I'm a woman I'm so much smarter than you card because she went to Howard f****** University and UCLA San Francisco and didn't do all that well there. And she flunked the bar two or three times. Plus there's the anti-semitism which stinks up the Democratic Party these days, she wouldn't pick Shapiro has a running mate because she didn't want to piss off BLM. Most people don't have a lot of respect for BLM.

    Doesn't really matter to me anymore Steve. The Party of Trump aka the GOP (I'll just say this) be careful what you wished for- because by God, you just got it. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, and Donnie certainly has that now. A Republican House and Senate will certainly do his bidding, regardless of how wacked out and irrational it happens to be.  MHO- a vote for Trump is actually a vote for JD Vance. Because I seriously doubt Donnie will last another four years before they have to get the guys in the White Coats & haul him off to a mental institution. At least JD isn't batshit crazy.  

    Not just Donnie winning Steve, his payback appointees that are coming scare the mortal shit out of me. Steve Bannon as Chief of Staff, or brain worm anti vaxxer Kennedy in charge of the FDA and CDC... That's just the start.  Maybe I should wish to be like Elijah under the broom tree and wish I was dead.

    May as well line up Nancy Pelosi and a few others while they're at it.  ? Or toss all those liberal media folks who have been badmouthing him for years in jail.. George Conway & Reed Galen from the Lincoln Project, Davie Packman, Glen Kirchner, Farron Cousins, Michael Cohen, and last but not least Mary Trump. 

    I'll be waiting with bated breath to see if DJT will be able to wave his magic wand and end the wars in Gaza and Ukraine in a couple of days. That is if he doesn't mange to start WWIII first by bombing Iran.

    I was not anti-Trump and generally try to be pragmatic. That said, I think they clung on to identity politics and ran on fixing an economy they were currently running. The middle of the country reflected their disdain for that.

    Yep, campaigning on "Opportunity for Black Men" was a big mistake. 

    People of all backgrounds aren't happy with the present, and she wanted to single-out a demographic. Whomever signed off on that idea is in big trouble.

    Your excuses are superficial and not the hard-core reasons she lost, but good attempt anyway

    This election was historic if you hadn't notice.

    Trump has attracted a coalition of people a Republican has not done in decades.

    He has doubled the black vote, he has surged among Latinos, and voters under 30 yrs. of age. It's time you catch up as well.

    He wins both the popular vote and EC, and sweeps the battleground states.

    This was not about just a couple of issues, this is a clear indication that this election has been a repudiation of liberalism, the demonrat party and it's policies.

    The demonrat party is broken and needs to stay broken.

    • Biden chose his VP solely on DEI criteria, not merit. 
    • Institutional lying from Bureau of Labor Statistics on job reports prior to the 2022 midterms, quietly revised after the election. 
    • The DNC had enough control over banning certain opinions from legacy media and social media that it convinced Musk to buy Twitter.
    • They cried wolf on Trump being Hitler, Putin's stooge, a racist, a rapist for 8 years. 
    • When character assassination attacks stopped working, they tried to throw him in jail for the rest of his life.
    • They lied for 4 years about the mental acuity of Biden and were exposed at the debate.
    • They skipped a primary to save money. They were stuck with DEI Harris VP, who was completely incapable of articulating an independent thought.
    • Institutional lying from the FBI about crime stats so the debate moderators could "fact" check Trump, quietly revised after the debate. 
    • Harris got propped up in interviews and the debate before going into basement strategy for two months too long.
    • Harris picked a complete buffoon for VP. 
    • They pushed her too late into Fox News interview without having any actual 1v1 sparring experience. It went how everyone expected it to. 
    • Harris skipped the Catholic charities dinner and Joe Rogan instead opting for SNL and the most unintentionally funny "sorry i couldn't be there" video I've ever seen.
    • DNC and legacy media spend the last week of news cycles lashing out against a comic for an offensive joke while Trump is doing funny photo ops at McDonalds and in a garbage truck. 
    • Tripled down on Hitler, Putin, racist, rapist as their closing argument.

    I am optimistic that those threats are as serious as the threat of him throwing Hillary in jail. But I agree with your concerns. He took a lot of money from Israeli-American dual citizen, Miriam Adelson, and I have no idea if her loyalties are more to the US or Israel.
