Across the board Trump did better than last election. This was not a situation of "this group" or "that group" didn't support Harris.
- The US economy sucks for the average voter. "It's the economy stupid" still holds true 32 years later.
- A massive majority of the US thinks the US is going in the wrong direction. In that situation, Harris saying she would be no different than Whitey McWhitebread Male Biden both dampened ANY racial/gender support for her AND hurt her on economics.
- Bragging about the endorsement of Liz and Dick Fucking War Criminal Cheney made her a "no" vote for anyone who was against the Iraq War back in the day, or torture afterwards.
- Harris' "I wasn't the 'border czar' even when I was the border czar" schtick fed into the Republicans best issue (an issue also related to unions and the economy).
- The ONLY issue that Harris really had was abortion. That is a HUGE issue. The US position on abortion is a scandal and an outrage IMO. That being said, a woman doesn't need an abortion every day, but she DOES need to pay the rent and buy food every day.
Is Trump a racist, sexist lying conman? Yes, but racism and sexism aren't the "elephants in the room." The elephant in the room is the elites in America pretending it is 1994 and not 2024.
I could never vote for Trump for a list of reasons that would take several minutes to write. But Kamala "I never won a single Democratic primary" Harris is a bad politician who ran a bad campaign. I'm surprised by the size of Trump's victory, I'm not at ALL surprised that he won.
