Dammit, I came to the comments to dunk on that, but you won. The idea these pseudo intellectual clowns really believe they are highly educated and not highly programmed is cute.. my plumber has more societal value
She was poisoned by either her parents or the education system to believe that she was had an unfair advantage in life. Which obviously fucked her up. She is talented but clearly has TDS.
I voted Democrat for 18 years, I voted Trump in 2024, I've only admitted this to one of my friends, because I don't want to deal with all the never trumpers who berate and ostracize you if you don't vote how they want you to vote. Sure Scott, everyone you know definitely voted Harris. That's why she's lost in a landslide.
Economist here. I know I'm one month late to this party, but I've never heard of this channel before, but I am familiar with Jessica and do listen to what she has to say. Just a few thoughts I would like to share. First, folks need to understand that these exit surveys are averages. As an example, I am part of the "highly educated elite" I have a PhD, three masters degrees, and 2 undergraduate degrees. I am financially and emotionally successful AND I enthusiastically voted for Trump. And yes, it was partly a vote AGAINST the Democrats who have literally lost their minds by my values and judgment. I don't recognize the party anymore and I voted for them over my voting lifetime much more often than I did Republicans. Trump destroyed the Republican Party, and rebuilt it into a populist party; via their own intense TDS Trump also apparently has destroyed the Democratic Party. Again, I don't recognize them. Second, Bidenomics has been an absolute disaster. And although Trump macroeconomics has its warts, the Democrats simply went full stupid. Third, for all of their talk of "fascism", "democracy", etc.… Anyone familiar with the history of economics could CLEARLY see the Democrat party was the one of oppression, violation of individual rights, using third party private industry to spy and oppress Americans, And then gaslighting an entire country for years when they scratched their head and said this doesn't make sense. The difference this selection is people remember what four years of Trump was like, and they remember what four years of Biden/Harris was like, they did a comparison of means test, and like me most came to the conclusion that Trump was the better choice. Look at how the Harris campaign treated Arabs and Muslims; those voters literally sad we hate Clinton/Biden/Harris even more than the orange man who talked about a Muslim man. I know this is a month later, but now we see what a disaster, strategically and financially, the Harris campaign was. They spent what looks like is going to total almost $2 billion, essentially "bribed" celebrities to associate with her, and in retrospect I felt this wonderful feeling of relief that she did not win. As a postmortem, the reaction of so many Democrats illustrates why Harris lost. Democrats, not all, but seemingly most, want to argue ridiculous and utterly stupid things like, "she ran a flawless campaign", "the American voters failed her" (such an elitist smug attitude that implies politicians are owed fidelity from voters rather than the other way around) , and the examples go on and on and on. The Republican Party has been destroyed - they now hate the Bushes, the Cheneys, etc.--in the Democrats now love them. Those "Neilon" people got us into so many wars that cost so many trillions of dollars and so many millions of lives… But I guess at least they were nice on Twitter. I did a poll of my class of 43 first time voters before the election; all but two of them said they were voting for Trump. When I asked them why, essentially they all said they're very worried about their futures, and the crazy orange man made much more sense to them then the Democrat mouthpieces.
The issue of a mother killing her own child… The fact that you’re willing to so completely disassociate from what’s actually happening there and refer to it as “bodily autonomy”… That’s just a morally bankrupt position.
Scott is a boomer who was born during the right time in history charging young people an enormous amount of money to get a overpriced college degree that will not help about 95 percent of them. IF he was a top surgeon I would respect him but he just gets paid a lot of money to give his opinion and he thinks his opinion his superior to that of people who earn less than him. Most high earning liberals have this attitude and it shows on the view and here during this podcast.
I remember a couple episodes ago when they were in SoHo, he basically said young men should accept women being the bread winner, be subservient and sit down. At least that’s how it translated to me. I was pissed and have a hard time respecting him now. He’s right, “The kids aren’t alright” and they’re tired of eating a shit sandwich and being told to shut up and like it. …and calling Trump a rapist based on a case with only Hearse and no actual evidence. WTF No kidding the young man are fed up.
@johnhart5478 trump didn't just assault one woman,it's just the one that didn't take a payoff,there's like 30 women trump is a POS,if i were a young man he would definitely be the scumbag I'd not wanna be
Electrical Engineer here...whenever the VP spoke I cringed. It may not be true, but she seems dumb as a box of rocks. Donald is obviously crude, but I am not hiring a babysitter, I'm hiring a person to protect me and my family from a scary world
She spent like 2 of her campaign's 3 months hiding from the media. She spent her entire four years of her vice presidency hiding from the media. Then after she loses in a landslide the media says "Oh well she just wasn't given the time to run her campaign."
Does anyone on these elitist shows ever ponder if women who saw abortion as a high priority are pro-life? It is stunning how they can NEVER think outside of identity boxes. Not all women vote the same. They’ve learned nothing.
Scott, I can't believe you kept saying bodily autonomy. Bodily autonomy disappeared for the Democrats when it came to vaccine mandates. A lot of us that fought against mandates were Kennedy supporters that voted for Trump.
@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat George Will, libertarian xxxxconservativ pundit for The Washington George will, Libertarian centrist pundent for the Washington Post, 2016: “The question is never ‘Will elites rule?’ […] The question is ‘Which elites?’ And the problem of democracy is to get public consent to worthy elites.” When only the elites represent the people the only people represented are the elites. The US is not a democracy, it is a Constitutional Republic. Yes, the issue is up versus down and those who consider themselves to be up take any exception to their rule as a raised middle finger.
Expertise in a classroom with a compliant audience is one thing, dealing with the huge complex knife fight that is American politics is something else. And most people aren't his students, lol, that has to be noted.
I thought he supported Trump? The was he seriously and angrily talks about "aspirational masculinity" and even the name "Professor G" led me to believe he was on the right.
They don't get it. I think Trump is an ass clown and I can't vote for a dude that might conduct a diet coup, I think it's a terrible precedent. ... but every person who voted for him isn't a racist, fascist, misogynistic asshole. That's crazy
The current Democratic "leadership" will never admit that allowing men to play in women's sports and unchecked immigration is something that is fundamentally wrong to the people that matter. The voters. That narcissist Gavin Newsom is doubling down today on things that many people disagree with in a state where the government runs things with an iron fist and without the will of the people being listened to. The betting markets should already have JD Vance as a 50% chance of winning the 2028 election today. Because if the left continues to keep its head in the sand on these issues, this will be a quarter century of Republican dominance.
The Republicans had to get rid of alot of the ideological possessed NeoCons in the party.....its taken them along time but they are slowly getting there......The democrates have to do the same to the ideologically possessed in there party.....the problem is that the woke mind virus came out of the elite universities so that is the pipeline.....and most future politicians these days come from elite universities .....the lesson is not going to be easily learned
The lesson is the left needs to stop respecting the intelligence and ethics of the average voter. Trump long ago realized how dumb and selfish the average voter is, and was content to just manipulate them instead of trying to reason with them. If the left continues to respect the intelligence and ethics of voters instead of just doing a better job of manipulating them, they're bound to keep losing.
I lean democrat and while Scott talks about the men's loneliness epidemic he hasn't put two and two together. Liberals values have in the eyes of young men shifted to the feminists (who dont need a man for anything) and gay rights. Conservative values that are appealing to young men are find a wife who isn't on only fans, and being born a man doesn't make you a automatic loser no matter what society, feminists, and the media tell you. At the end of the day the facts are, a lot of men want to buy a house (economy is bad, ((which THEY believe is Democrats fault)), they want a wife (liberals fault) and they don't want to feel like the plague of society (main stream medias fault). Men are tired of now getting the least while accommodating everyone else the most. This election proved that, and if you take two seconds to look at who Donald Trump spoke to towards the end of his run, it was the crowds who listen to Rogan, Theo Von, buy Crypto and the MMA. This is the inverse response to the girl power era for the last 30 years which has preached dominance over men. It has affected mens work lives, mens entertainment, mens dating, mens lonliness, etc. That coupled with democrats being so bad at their jobs they let a criminal, felon, con-man, out maneuver them while he managed to stay out of prison and raked in Billions is astonishing. They had 4 years to get Trump in front of a judge and failed, failed to the point where they made him a hero. If anything should make us outraged it should be that.
Yes the failure to convict Trump is the main reason he is President now. No other country in the Western world would have failed to convict or at least process him in 4 years. If Garland couldn't figure it out in the first month or two, you need a new AG. People know that Trump would have figured this out, at least. Try to run for President while you are serving 20 years in prison with no chance of parole. Re: young men. This is a tricky one because women still haven't gotten a proper deal. No mandatory maternity leave in the U.S. You need to have the right employer or be rich, or take your chances. Men also have no paternity leave. Young men, however, have reality and testosterone working: they feel intuitively that they are the stronger gender, and for some key tasks they clearly are. You want an electrical worker to fix your power outage at 2am, a "lineman", you want someone who can safely lift a 100 pound transformer and place it in position. After chainsaws cut the fallen tree off the lines. Chainsaws also used by young-ish men. Yes, some women with enough training can do this, but we all know that more men can do this and with less fanfare. The same goes with infantry personnel in war. Doesn't mean that we live like the Taliban and restrict women's ability to work and thrive, but it does mean we admit that men matter and often in those really telling situations: some combat situations, some emergencies. Young men can see that they can do essential stuff, and then they find hiring practices sometimes favor women. How is this going to work for them, how is this going to work for the credibility of a lot of our public life, including politics.
You are the only people who think you are automatic losers for being male. We can't be responsible for your trauma. Go get help so you don't have to obsess over thinking others think you are a loser. Advocating for the other is not an attack on you. Grow up.
I like watching this podcast because it is two out of touch people telling us what is going on with us. BERNIE WAS RIGHT. accept it and understand why working class politics is the thing.
I have young white man who works for me that has never voted before. When I encouraged him to vote before he gave the usual reasons why not. He is everything Prof G talks about. He is a very serious gamer, lives alone, isolated hasn't dated in years since his last serious gf. He got red pilled pretty hard after 2020. The lockdowns., mask vax mandates, etc all eroded his support of institutions. I noticed he had an I voted sticker on his jacket last week. Think of how empowered he must feel now, that in his first election he helped make the difference that turned 50/50 into 52/48. When young white men aren't feeling valued, this could be a singnificant group that no one is paying attention to. Everyone wants to blame white women for this result, but no one wants to credit young white men. America can keep ignoring them to its peril.
This is probably the best comment in here because it's the most truthful here's the part they don't understand almost no man goes from being a Republican to a Democrat and now that they pretty much stole the entire generation of voters they will only get stronger. It's at the point now I think men are embarrassed to admit their Democrats at least non-gay men. It's amazing how this shifted so fast just like the working class a Democratic party totally overplayed their hand by being the smug assholes that they are. You're totally right though and I agree 100% this is a change that I think only going to get bigger
"The lockdowns., mask vax mandates," how the hell did that erode his support? If that's the case, well, then he's not a real man then! Real men are vaccinated! And what's going to happen in another mismanaged pandemic (which by the way all happened under Trump). Mask mandates were under Trump; does he not remember that! Think of hopw empowering he'll feel next year when living in an autocracy!
I don't think you're giving them enough credit. Agree with them politically or not; you're watching two intellectually honest people come to terms with reality in real time. America should be so lucky to have more people on the Democratic side that are this intellectually honest and give a shit.
And that's DJT trick: " the reason life isn't work for you in the way you wanted isn't your fault! It's "their" fault. And I'll tell you who "they" are: illegal immigrants, foreigners, elitist socialists...etc" So now here come a few Exec Orders to make it look as though DJT is fixing those problems. "See? Just like I promised! I'm fixing it!" Oldest trick in the book!
@@NAGIUXSMaybe you're already there? Trump disgusts me. But that doesn't mean I am fan of the other side. The last four years haven't changed anything for America's working class. So they turned on the establishment. Can you really balme them? The Democrats handed us Trump, and that's hard to forgive.
"If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convinct you." -Senator Lindsay Graham (R) Yeah, that's not a great sign.
@ idk why that’s so hard to understand. Love or hate trump or kamala, she’s representing the side people haven’t been pleased with, never had the full backing of democrats including biden, tons of campaign missteps and only a few months vs trump who’s basically been campaigning for 4 years. This reminds me of when a football team fires their coach in the middle of a season after several years of losing and the assistant coach takes over the bad team and continues to lose and never gets another shot of being a head coach cuz they go off their record of taking over a bad team midseason
@@11FBA11 and then there is also that which goes back to the 1st line of my original comment, POOR CANDIDATE. She was the 1st one to bow out the 2020 dem primaries and hadn’t done anything since then to change anyone’s mind about her
Galloway couldn’t cope harder. I get it, it’s hard for rich, urban elites to understand what every day people go through on a daily basis, but damn this dude is delusional
At his core Galloway is a low T liberal atheist college professor. These types have built the Democratic Party as they know it; and they will never quite get that working America hates them with a passion
What he doesn't get is that election represent a failure of trad-con model in favor of anti-establishment crowd. One thing I expect is more transparency in the gouverment with this new cohorte.
The opposite side of that coin though is Trump who comes from wealth, surrounds himself from people from wealth, lives part time at an exclusive resort who bankrupted every business he has, had his non profit disbanded. So I hear you, but you kinda voted for a Scott Galloway. Burden of proof is on you that they’ll do everything they said having never done it in history.
@@baffinsansterre LMFAOOO Are you serious??? This is the Alternative Facts people unchained. They have literally purged any adults in the room because the last time was a constant leak fest because of the behind the curtain freak show it was. Now they are installing loyalist yahoos so there will be no questions asked and no pushback as they do all kinds of unpalatable to corrupt and/or possibly illegal stuff.
It's crazy how they still are spending time discussing a roast Comedians single joke made at a rally. Like have you watched Kill Tony? Lol they frame him like he's a part of his cabinet 😂 it's delusional. Dems need to keep reflecting.. they are still so far off the mark.
The mental gymnastics required for a "professor" and this self-proclaimed "highly educated" person to conclude that "she just needed more time to run a better campaign to win" hurts my hair. .
If anything, she had too much time lol. Trump was decimating Biden in the polls (especially if you correct for the polls consistent error underestimating Trump). When Kamala announced, the numbers did a complete 180, and for a solid couple weeks it looked like Kamala had it in the bag (even with correction for polls). But once the honeymoon period was over and Kamala was actually considered/scrutinized, the polls slowly and steadily shifted for Trump. In hindsight, Kamala's only shot was her first week as the nominee. All downhill from there lol.
@@Tyler-vw9bh She could have built on that and done well even in the short time she had, but she opted not to distance herself from Biden and to run a campaign that was mainly anti-Trump and pro-choice while ignoring the majority of voters, same as others have done before her. Her campaign was not all that different from Clinton's, and she went into it with more baggage thanks to her association with Biden. I think she could have been more plain-spoken and offered more distance from Biden and more ideas and policies of her own and done OK. She needed to demonstrate competence and build public trust, but failed to do that in my opinion. Even the day of the election, she was largely an unknown because her campaign communicated so little of substance.
Prof, I love your work and have even taken some courses on marketing and business at Section. I’ve been listening to you since 2016 when I started my career in advertising. I also regularly listen to your markets podcast. I’m a Latino man who became more politically aware during Ron Paul’s presidential run in ‘08. I’d consider myself a libertarian now, but I still hold traditional family values, I’m religious, and generally feel like I’m made out to be the bad guy from Dems. I’m a hardworking guy, from the hoods of LA just trying to make it. But apparently I have so much privilege as a man that none of the socioeconomic, gang violence or lack of eduction means anything. I’m not seen as an individual. No thanks Scott. I love your message about young men, but I can’t align with your party.
I spoke to a young guy, first time voter (DJT). He was upset that he could not buy the fast car and the live in the slick apartment, he had been working for three years on a $17hr wage. There is a skewed reality on what the world will give you. The USA can provide a great opportunity for anyone if they have a realistic view of the world and what they have to offer and what effort they are prepared to put into it. Too many podcasters and influencers living large give the wrong impression on what is possible if you do not have all the charm, charisma and street smarts to make it big at the speed of light, there is a lot of heavy lifting to make it in the USA, it is achievable. No political party is going to do it for you. I am sure many will wake up four years from now and realize nothing changed because they did nothing extra. The secret to monetary wealth is make money and then make the money work for you. I'll leave it to the guru's to advise on health and emotional wealth.
@@arthurswanson3285 just a reality I have lived through. No matter what your political leanings, once High School is over and you can't saunter through the 15mph traffic like life owes you something, it is a hard world where everyone has to compete for the resources. I am a centrist and lean left and right on specific policies, maybe an optimistic realist.
well if that is the message it certainly wasn't delivered by Donald Trump. they're going to get everything now, right? The truth is he sold them instead of free student loans, different bag of goods that will be empty.@@arthurswanson3285
I’m a lifelong Democrat and Progressive of the ancient New Deal variety. A little bit more self exposition - I’m a big fan of Yuval Harari, Michael Lind & Peter Turchin. I appreciate your implicit recognition of some of Turchin’s ideas ie elite over production & popular immiseration. That said, the Democratic Party’s words concerning preservation of democracy did not match its actions. If I were fighting to preserve democracy, I would have: A) started project New Deal 2.0 in Jan ‘21; B) started public, Watergate style hearings on the insurrection no later than March ‘21; C) lead w & heavily publicized Lina Khan’s efforts; D) taken a unilateral, Democratic Party led, pledge to put all stocks and similar assets into blind trusts. No one who follows Nancy Pelosi’s stock trades believes Democrats are truly concerned with corruption and preservation of democracy. I’m certain the legions of lobbyists, attorneys and analysts who profit from the current system will explain why these are unrealistic and naive goals. The thing is the average American knows enough about history to dismiss that. And for those (primarily working in corporate endowed nonprofits or academia) who will offer abstruse explanations on why America is too racist and/or misogynistic to ever allow anything like the New Deal to occur again; really? We’ve made no ground since Jim Crow? I’m sorry but, there’s a special place in hell for the descendants of the beneficiaries of the New Deal who use their subsidized (directly or indirectly) educations to get wealthy protecting rapacious corporations
She finished dead last in a presidential run only a few years ago. Why did they think she'd be unbeatable a few years later after serving as an 80-yr old's sidekick. They needed a proper leadership race. A better competition even than the one that chose Joe Biden in the first place. He was already too old and moderate then. This is not an age for moderates and sages. You need warriors and new ideas, ideas of your own that you can force people to listen to.
She was unpopular in 2020 and heavily criticized even by her own party as a VP. When she became the nominee the media went on a sunshine pumping campaign about her and her image but it didn't change the fact that she was never likable or viable as the head of a national ticket.
Some people still think what the media says is real. So he's spent the past three months listening to CNN say "Kamala Harris is a Joyful Warrior" to all of their 37 viewers.
@@TheTorturedGhostOfKirkDouglasI agree, she's overqualified to be a president; her only guilt is being positive, chill, reserved and with melanin in her skin. White rep women wouldn't be able to stomach all the credentials Kamala has. With Trump white women are going to be expected to work harder and still not going to reproduce. So what's the point having him?
@@TheTorturedGhostOfKirkDouglasThe problem with Kamala is that she was very unpopular as a presidential candidate in 2020 and was heavily criticized even by her own side as a VP until she became the nominee for president. Her approval rating never cracked 40% until she announced her run. Apart from that she didn't have a good background to be a successful presidential candidate because she had an image as a California progressive which didn't allow her enough centrist and republican crossover to win.
Moderate level-headed democrats make up the silent majority. But the loud unhinged vocal minority of the left have hijacked the party and are sinking the democratic ship. Social media algorithms give them much more attention than is healthy for society.
12:26 - SCOTUS not unprecedented: Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945) - 8 appointments. William H. Taft (1909-1913) appointed 6. Richard Nixon (1969-1974) - 4 appointments. Donald Trump (2017-2021) - 2024-2028… 3 so far a possible 5 appointments total.
I waited a year to watch this episode. So great to finally see the end of this. Jessica has massively changed her tune - which is great - sounding much better now; she even had a few good takes.
Biden v Trump 2024 was an unpopular rematch up. Two old men battling it out. Biden's opportunity was to announce he would not run again in 2022/3. It would have been a totally different election.
25 minutes in. Great introspective discussion so far! So glad you aren't blaming the voters like so many other Dems. Jessica, I'm a conservative fan of "The Five." You get so much flack in the comments over there. You are wonderful and insightful. I think the structure over there that makes you the token foil nakes you defensive or something. When you are calm and can take your time like you do here, you're wonderful and convincing. Anyway, coming here has made me a fan of yours.
Men and young men are tired of being treated like shit on the bottom of shoe and being treated as if they don’t matter, so they showed up in droves. If guys 6’, with 6 figures and “6 inches” can barely be treated with respect and dignity what did they think would happen?
@@jeff1872tI hope he doesn't put tariffs on testosterone and people like you go get on it because that's the problem with this country we have way too many low testosterone men who can't think for themselves. Get on TRT you'll feel better about yourself trust me
Wokeness only pays the bills for people other than young men. And not even for them now. It's a new age. Every time there is power outage here and the electricians climb those poles, use chainsaws to clear debris -- do all this at midnight in winter rain -- they are young men mostly. Always under 50 years of age. You have to lift 70 pound electrical boxes and place them in precarious positions. They deserve recognition for this. A 110 pound woman cannot do this work. I'm not sure that most women even want to do this work, or serve in the frontlines in war. I'm sorry, but this is why men matter. I was a miner at one point in my life. Very few women worked there. Probably more do today, but not even close to half yet. Until people recognize how people actually live and work, we will get some pretty surprising election results.
@@chrismartin5870 Not that I like Kamala, but that's bs. Trump was standing for 40 mins, playing music and saying nothing. He said immigrants are eating the pets. If Kamala did those things she would be declared mentally ill. The last thing you can claim is that Kamala didn't speak as coherently as Trump.
@@chrismartin5870 Please remember that Trump did not want another debate, after the first one, because it went so poorly for him. Harris did a decent job there. I really think that the main reason not more people voted for her is that she is a woman. In the current political climate people feel better with a guy there, even when it is a weird, orange guy.
Maybe change the name. I listen to get understanding of both sides. Started listening to Scott because he’s great with finance advice but disagree mostly with his political position
Why are so many people from the right acting like the average Democrat, especially their surrogates and popular personalities, aren't incredibly moderate? That's the whole point of the grievance of a lot of Bernie voters or supporters of the likes of AOC: The Democratic Party is centrist, if not center-right. And people decidedly on the left don't feel represented, especially by politicians who take a strong right turn to appeal to a broader electorate. Kamala Harris touted her being a gun owner and was eager to campaign with someone like Liz Cheney for a reason. People seriously need to break out of their echo chambers on both sides. Your perspective on what represents a moderate or, to quote another responder, a "super liberal" is totally and completely off.
Scott, you’re a brilliant man and I like a lot of what you have to say with regards to finance and life although we disagree on religion - which I pray that you will get to know Jesus and the power of Him over your life. God has the power to transform You and your life. I sincerely think a lot of you and will pray for your personal salvation - I mean that Sir! You BOTH are missing the point. You’re both more concerned about who didn’t vote for her versus understanding why they didn’t vote for her. It’s because she had no baseline policy and failed as a Vice President and didn’t show up to offer solutions. So blaming white women and black men says more about who you both are which is biased people that simply don’t like Trump which is fine but he offers solutions - she simply didn’t which is why she lost plain and simple. HOWEVER, Kamala is NOT and would NOT be beneficial for AMERICA! With regards to defending OUR country, she is not capable of negotiating resolution. Scott, I respect you. How can you possibly respect her! With regards to LIBERAL’s, it’s more about people voting AGAINST Trump than truly FOR Kamala! Like you Scott, but please wake up and see the benefit Sir. May God bless you!
It's not (just) her fault. She never should have been in this position. Biden should have announced he wasn't running by mid-2023, and a primary should have happened. She would never have been the candidate if that had happened.
Yeah it seems she has a little more of a relationship with people at Fox News (which I despise) and hears the perspectives from the other side. While most just live in their urban democrat bubble and have no sense of the feelings of others.
She's a moderate democrat and not super woke. Many moderate dems like her are SICK and TIRED of how woke and delusional the democratic party has become.
The immigration issue is becoming less and less valuable in the Mexican American community out parents who needed immigration reform are getting old or are dead so we can’t be held hold hostage with that issue
Why do the DEMs gloss over the fact that DEMs also Chose Biden over Kamala in primaries, in fact Kamala was first one out. So why isn't sexism or racist discussed in that race? What is race and sex only relevant when Republican wins.
Because you always go with the incumbent. And that's true on both sides as history (and not my opinion) tells us. How many times did you see a sitting Democrat or Republican president not being chosen to run for a second consecutive term? The Dems effed up when they didn't make the switch a year ago and decided to gamble by sticking with Biden until 100 days before the election.
DNC tend to go for the establishment moderate bland candidate. Bernie was too much of an outsider who called too many of the wrong people out, so the DNC replaced him with Clinton. DNC wanted Biden in 2020 because he has the most experience inside Washington with deep connections in the US political system.
For three years the **standard media line** on Kamala replacing Biden was "She's just Biden but with worse favorability numbers". That was common knowledge in the media right up until they got caught lying about Biden and decided they could fabricate Kamala 2.0 out of sheet metal and dreams. Then suddenly they decided "Kamala Harris is a Joyful Warrior" and completely forgot what they'd been saying for three years that "she's just Biden but with worse favorability numbers." And then the election results came in, and lo and behold... she's just Biden with worse favorability numbers...
@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat The first presidential election I was old enough to vote was in 2004. I was going through a short conservative phase from 18-21 (mainly due to discovering AM talk radio) and voted for George W Bush. But shortly afterwards, I became a super left progressive vegan (mainly due to college brainwashing me). I voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012, Clinton in 2016 (but much preferred Bernie Sanders), and Biden in 2020. I would have voted for Tulsi Gabbard or Andrew Yang if they were on the ballot. I voted for Trump in 2024. I started becoming disillusioned by the left with the advent of Trump Derangement Syndrome in 2015. I didn’t like Trump then, but I didn’t think he was literally Hitler and didn’t go on psychotic rants whenever his name was brought up. I felt the over-the-top anger directed at Trump was performative to broadcast “I’m a good person!” or a form of mental disorder. However, it almost felt like a physical force was preventing me from voting for Trump in 2024 but when I finally put the pen to the paper to vote for Trump, I felt a great sense of guilt like I did something “evil”, but I also felt like I did the righteous thing. It’s weird how strong the brainwashing that Trump is Hitler has been, but I just reached a breaking point with the democratic party.
You can tell the difference in the way Jessica thinks vs. the other two. She actually has to talk to and interact with conservatives. The other 2 don’t have a clue
This is a reckoning for MSM, their bias and loss of any objectivity/ balance in reporting is mind blowing. The Free Press and 2 Way great alternatives.
I've been a Union Carpenter in Chicago for 29 years and my family has run unions in Chicago since the 50s. When I started I was 19 years old, no blue-collar Union tradesmen voted Republican. Now it's 60/40 favoring Republicans. The main reason for the switch is 100% liberal ideology, woke-ism, pronouns etc, etc. The democratic party cannot continue to make it look like all they do is pander and care about the minority of the party. No one I know cares or talks negatively about college grads or the elite. The party has to get back to being the blue-collar union worker's party. Also, you can't keep pushing a woman on us it'll happen when it happens. Get away from condoning guys dressed up as girls playing in women's sports. You have to get away from the liberal niche part of the party, that will continue to lose you elections. Democrats are way out of touch and clueless with the blue-collar men and women now.
The Supreme Court said the individual states have the sovereignty to determine their laws, including the laws regarding abortion. For decades battles have been fought at the state level about abortion. Many people do not heavily weigh the abortion issue when voting for president, but they do when they vote at the state level. Abortion is increasingly a state issue like education, the legalization vs. criminalization of drugs, etc.
The DNC really didn't want anyone to think about the practical reality of what this decision meant. That everyone in New York and California, and most of the country for that matter, was not losing anything. Many of those people now have this enshrined in their state constitutions. And it means this is no longer a national issue they have to hear about every four years. States that want it get it, states that dont dont.
For anyone who's interested, apparently our immigration system was modified around the civil Rights era to be more inclusive, I had so many loopholes that combined with the improvement of the Latin America ability for them to migrate cause our current immigration crisis to eventually implode
The Democrats did not vote and just stayed home, the math tells the story,over 13 million did not vote compared to 2020 and Trump only had about the same number as 2020.
Yep. Dems are less likely to compromise and demand a candidate who aligns with them politically nearly 100%. Many saw Kamala as too conservative or too woke and ended up not voting, voting third party, or voting Trump. It's nearly impossible for a candidate to appeal to enough democratic voters. The only type who could have won was Bernie Sanders., but the DNC put an end to that. Someone with strong convictions and rarely lies. Some who straddles the line between insider and outsider. AOC may have what it takes if she toned down the woke Twittering and shifted a tad more towards the center.
Exactly. And on top of that, there's still 30-40% of eligible voters who don't give a F and stayed home. Oh, and all the "alt" Jill Stein and RFK votes.... ad those up. It would have made a difference.
2020 was literally the largest election in American history. Before 2024, the 1st and 2nd places for most votes ever were Joe Biden in 2020 and Donald Trump in 2020. Voter turnout % in this election was higher than 19 of the past 24 elections, dating back to 1932. Other than 2020, this is the highest turnout election since 1968.
@@degenshaw6386 2024 Trump 75.1 million,Harris 71.8 million .2020 Trump 74,224,319 ,Biden 81,284,666.So you can see that the Democrat voters did not vote this time.Hope you can work out the math's.

If inflation falls, this only means that prices are rising less quickly. Prices have therefore not fallen, but are rising slightly less quickly. If something has risen quickly from 2 to 5 dollars, then it is now rising less quickly from 5 dollars. But the price is still two and a half times higher than before. I don't know how many times I have to explain this. Either the participants in the conversation don't know this, which would be really bad, or they are lying, which would be even worse.

Little more complex than Rogan. There is a wide, deep well of misogyny and racism in America. The felon's voters won't admit it, but misogyny and racism were factors. MAGA didn't like $5 eggs but they were okay with electing a felon and adjudicated fraud and abuser. Trump will implement Project 2025. It'll strip Americans, including MAGAs, of freedom, but Project 2025 isn't likely to lower the price of eggs. The NYC silver spoon will help guys like Musk and Thiel; he won't help MAGAs anymore than he helped Trump U victims.
I’d like to say I enjoy your podcasts and I hope you keep them up. I’d like to make some observations , this is from a Canadian looking in at this election. 1. it was obvious to me Trump was going to win 2. Kamala did as good as she could given the hand she was delt by Biden 3. Kamala answered no questions in any interview but just served up a word salad but still came only 4% of the vote which means that only that amount was in play with those who voted 4. Trumps numbers in voting hasn’t changed over 3 elections, Biden had 81M votes Kamala had 66M where did the 15M votes go. 5. Trump didn’t win the election the Democrats lost it by not working and thinking voters would vote for anyone they put up 6. The main street media and the entertainment complex only message was Trump is a nazi and a fascist. Instead of bringing facts the first thing out of everyone’s mouth was that slur 7. The Dems just only pushed the above narrative rather than focusing on people 8. The US and Canada are both ready for a real female President or Prime minister you just don’t need one with huge baggage (Hillary) and one with no personality Kamala (she may have one but it doesn’t translate) 9. all you have to do is look at the rest of the world and see the way countries are voting, only outlier is the UK who voted in a Labour government but on a very tiny percentage of the vote. This should have been a warning to the Dems and the media but they were too busy calling everyone fascists to see 10. The average person doesn’t care about politics, all they want is a government that works. 11. As for the transgender and DEI stuff I find when you push it too far the backlash from the regular voter who still is the majority comes fast and furious and the repercussions as devastating and will hurt those who actually need help back over a decade. Keep up the good work!!!
Regarding your last point, this campaign did not push that stuff one iota. In fact, every time she was asked about it, she shut it right down. She literally said, "Next question."
9. Please don’t forget my country Australia in that outlier list… makes two major English speaking nation with immigrants, multi cultural and multi class populations to still choose labour after a long conservative govt ruling with right wing connotations. World is complex and people are seeing beyond identity politics and looking at economics and peace.
@@ItsHH90that means she’s down 10M votes, it’s how disconnected those voters are. Are they now independents? Or just disinterested citizens because neither sides polices have energized them. All questions that need to be asked to be asked which is complicated and can’t be answered in a 30 second or less sound bite.
@@knightsofazeroth but how much would be an acceptable difference for you to not question? if she got 75m and Biden got 80m a 5m difference make sense? I mean she lost why wouldn’t it be less than Biden who won in 2020? It makes sense to me that 10 million people didn’t vote or voted for the other parties considering some of the political issues like Gaza. But also in 2020 there were a lot of mail in ballots due to Covid which is really convient for people which could be the cause of the up tick. But the idea that it was rigged is ridiculous why wouldn’t they rig it again considering there was more to lose like the senate house and potential 2 justices set to retire. I think she’ll probably get 72m by the end of it all which means she lost 8 mill which makes sense.
"Wokeness" really matters. I play computer games, love movies. The anti-wokeness discussion has been going on non-stop for 2 years at least. A dozen of the latest blockbuster games and movies have failed because of wokeness. By "wokeness" I mean franchises have replaced male heroes or racially white/beige people with women and individuals of color. Star Wars movies and games -- and with it Disney -- are especially a target here. But also Marvel/movies, also games like Bioware's Dragon Age. Or Dustborn. Good stories have been replaced by lectures. People hate preaching, they hate over-compensation, they hate it from top to bottom. I hate it and am on the Left -- I vote New Democatic Party in Canada. What is missed on the wokeness thing is 2 things: it is to some extent an intent to change "bad" assumptions and thinking; it tends to overlap with money and affordability. Regarding the latter: games and movies are more expensive all the time, so replacing heroes feels more destructive and insulting when a game, for example is 90 bucks USD vs. 14 bucks USD. Not all gamers are Trumpers, probably barely half. But we all gamers hate wokeness and this means the blurry, joyful "middle" -- looking at you Dems -- is really not on board and will look the other way or even vote for genuine if depraved Trump. Phoney is worse than fascist, at least in terms of appearances. We will see how far Trump goes down the fascist road -- if he is as destructive to democracy as he might be, this will change things. People don't always vote rationally or according to habit. Emotions and change can play a role too. And basic credibility. I'm Canadian and it has taken me a better part of 10 years to realize that Canada will not be "leading" anything in terms of tackling climate change. We have to follow and work with other countries. 40 million people don't get to tell 10 billion what to do.
I took it as she was kinda calling it like it is and she was also talking about the problems inherent with her position and status, in that her perception can be skewed. Most in her position think they know it all, but she was calling her cohorts and self out.
I recommend that if you guys want a real understanding of why people voted for Trump and rejected Kamala, maybe have an interview with a regular male Trump voter. Instead you have on biased journalists who give you BS. Most men hate these idiots.
This is the guy writing a book about masculinity? Escaping with alcohol and drugs... self-loathing? The nerve this guy has bad mouthing Jordan Peterson, when urged young men to be more responsible and clean their room.
Lots of great point here. I can’t vote for a party or candidate that thinks a man that puts on lipstick should compete in women’s sports. The party has gotten weird.
That is understandable, but a party doesn't think. I don't know one Democrat that thinks a man should put on lipstick and compete in women's sports. I am sure there are some but probably no more than there are Republican's that believe that the Democrats control the weather or the Jews have space lasers. I don't know one of them either. Why? Because almost no one is that weird despite which party they align with. This is the kind of stuff that is being used to create different realities so we hate each other. I must admit I have an aversion to ugly trans people although I believe all people deserve to be treated with dignity and should be free to do what they wish as long as they don't harm anyone. You know, to each his own.
'As a highly educated elite' is exactly her problem
EXACTLY!!!!!
In other words, highly indoctrinated elite
Dammit, I came to the comments to dunk on that, but you won. The idea these pseudo intellectual clowns really believe they are highly educated and not highly programmed is cute.. my plumber has more societal value
She was poisoned by either her parents or the education system to believe that she was had an unfair advantage in life. Which obviously fucked her up. She is talented but clearly has TDS.
“I’m a highly educated elite” what a pathetic thing to state.
Yeah when she opened with that I thought ‘do you want a cookie.’
Highly educated= indoctrinated mockingbird.

"I texted my whole echo chamber, and they all said the same thing..." - Scott Galloway, pretty much.

Sure Scott, everyone you know definitely voted Harris. That's why she's lost in a landslide.
So true 🤣🤣🤣
The bubble is getting smaller and smaller. They’ve learned nothing.
Well said
😂😂😂
Economist here. I know I'm one month late to this party, but I've never heard of this channel before, but I am familiar with Jessica and do listen to what she has to say.
Just a few thoughts I would like to share.
First, folks need to understand that these exit surveys are averages. As an example, I am part of the "highly educated elite" I have a PhD, three masters degrees, and 2 undergraduate degrees. I am financially and emotionally successful AND I enthusiastically voted for Trump. And yes, it was partly a vote AGAINST the Democrats who have literally lost their minds by my values and judgment. I don't recognize the party anymore and I voted for them over my voting lifetime much more often than I did Republicans. Trump destroyed the Republican Party, and rebuilt it into a populist party; via their own intense TDS Trump also apparently has destroyed the Democratic Party. Again, I don't recognize them.
Second, Bidenomics has been an absolute disaster. And although Trump macroeconomics has its warts, the Democrats simply went full stupid.
Third, for all of their talk of "fascism", "democracy", etc.… Anyone familiar with the history of economics could CLEARLY see the Democrat party was the one of oppression, violation of individual rights, using third party private industry to spy and oppress Americans, And then gaslighting an entire country for years when they scratched their head and said this doesn't make sense.
The difference this selection is people remember what four years of Trump was like, and they remember what four years of Biden/Harris was like, they did a comparison of means test, and like me most came to the conclusion that Trump was the better choice.
Look at how the Harris campaign treated Arabs and Muslims; those voters literally sad we hate Clinton/Biden/Harris even more than the orange man who talked about a Muslim man.
I know this is a month later, but now we see what a disaster, strategically and financially, the Harris campaign was. They spent what looks like is going to total almost $2 billion, essentially "bribed" celebrities to associate with her, and in retrospect I felt this wonderful feeling of relief that she did not win.
As a postmortem, the reaction of so many Democrats illustrates why Harris lost. Democrats, not all, but seemingly most, want to argue ridiculous and utterly stupid things like, "she ran a flawless campaign", "the American voters failed her" (such an elitist smug attitude that implies politicians are owed fidelity from voters rather than the other way around) , and the examples go on and on and on.
The Republican Party has been destroyed - they now hate the Bushes, the Cheneys, etc.--in the Democrats now love them.
Those "Neilon" people got us into so many wars that cost so many trillions of dollars and so many millions of lives… But I guess at least they were nice on Twitter.
I did a poll of my class of 43 first time voters before the election; all but two of them said they were voting for Trump. When I asked them why, essentially they all said they're very worried about their futures, and the crazy orange man made much more sense to them then the Democrat mouthpieces.
Your comment may be late but we have read and appreciated it. Personally I'm very mixed on Scott for various reasons ....
The issue of a mother killing her own child… The fact that you’re willing to so completely disassociate from what’s actually happening there and refer to it as “bodily autonomy”… That’s just a morally bankrupt position.
Scott saying Kamala was highly qualified, credible, and effective, is delusional. How did a guy who can say things that stupid find success?
She was raised in a middle class household though.
Don't you get it yet? That's why he found success, because he's willing to say that with a straight face.
How is she not?
Scott is a boomer who was born during the right time in history charging young people an enormous amount of money to get a overpriced college degree that will not help about 95 percent of them. IF he was a top surgeon I would respect him but he just gets paid a lot of money to give his opinion and he thinks his opinion his superior to that of people who earn less than him. Most high earning liberals have this attitude and it shows on the view and here during this podcast.
She ain't she had lost alot in the primaries and debate stages as well
This episode is the epitome of why they lost the election
They lost because they didn't or wouldn't go out and feed the portion of gullible Americans a study diet of lies and horseshit

…and calling Trump a rapist based on a case with only Hearse and no actual evidence. WTF

Electrical Engineer here...whenever the VP spoke I cringed. It may not be true, but she seems dumb as a box of rocks. Donald is obviously crude, but I am not hiring a babysitter, I'm hiring a person to protect me and my family from a scary world
She left it all on the field?? She didn't even leave it on Joe Rogan!!
She spent like 2 of her campaign's 3 months hiding from the media. She spent her entire four years of her vice presidency hiding from the media.
Then after she loses in a landslide the media says "Oh well she just wasn't given the time to run her campaign."
Does anyone on these elitist shows ever ponder if women who saw abortion as a high priority are pro-life? It is stunning how they can NEVER think outside of identity boxes. Not all women vote the same. They’ve learned nothing.
Scott, I can't believe you kept saying bodily autonomy. Bodily autonomy disappeared for the Democrats when it came to vaccine mandates. A lot of us that fought against mandates were Kennedy supporters that voted for Trump.
This ain’t the old GOP. Cheney is in the Dems camp in this realignment.

The current Democratic "leadership" will never admit that allowing men to play in women's sports and unchecked immigration is something that is fundamentally wrong to the people that matter. The voters. That narcissist Gavin Newsom is doubling down today on things that many people disagree with in a state where the government runs things with an iron fist and without the will of the people being listened to. The betting markets should already have JD Vance as a 50% chance of winning the 2028 election today. Because if the left continues to keep its head in the sand on these issues, this will be a quarter century of Republican dominance.
There is nowhere in history that says we will learn from anything that just happened or the next 4 years. It is what it is
The Republicans had to get rid of alot of the ideological possessed NeoCons in the party.....its taken them along time but they are slowly getting there......The democrates have to do the same to the ideologically possessed in there party.....the problem is that the woke mind virus came out of the elite universities so that is the pipeline.....and most future politicians these days come from elite universities .....the lesson is not going to be easily learned
The lesson is the left needs to stop respecting the intelligence and ethics of the average voter. Trump long ago realized how dumb and selfish the average voter is, and was content to just manipulate them instead of trying to reason with them.
If the left continues to respect the intelligence and ethics of voters instead of just doing a better job of manipulating them, they're bound to keep losing.
I lean democrat and while Scott talks about the men's loneliness epidemic he hasn't put two and two together. Liberals values have in the eyes of young men shifted to the feminists (who dont need a man for anything) and gay rights. Conservative values that are appealing to young men are find a wife who isn't on only fans, and being born a man doesn't make you a automatic loser no matter what society, feminists, and the media tell you.
At the end of the day the facts are, a lot of men want to buy a house (economy is bad, ((which THEY believe is Democrats fault)), they want a wife (liberals fault) and they don't want to feel like the plague of society (main stream medias fault). Men are tired of now getting the least while accommodating everyone else the most. This election proved that, and if you take two seconds to look at who Donald Trump spoke to towards the end of his run, it was the crowds who listen to Rogan, Theo Von, buy Crypto and the MMA.
This is the inverse response to the girl power era for the last 30 years which has preached dominance over men. It has affected mens work lives, mens entertainment, mens dating, mens lonliness, etc. That coupled with democrats being so bad at their jobs they let a criminal, felon, con-man, out maneuver them while he managed to stay out of prison and raked in Billions is astonishing. They had 4 years to get Trump in front of a judge and failed, failed to the point where they made him a hero. If anything should make us outraged it should be that.
This should be the top comment
Awesome well constructed comment. 100% correct in every way.
You should be on this podcast talking not these people.
Yes the failure to convict Trump is the main reason he is President now. No other country in the Western world would have failed to convict or at least process him in 4 years. If Garland couldn't figure it out in the first month or two, you need a new AG. People know that Trump would have figured this out, at least. Try to run for President while you are serving 20 years in prison with no chance of parole.
Re: young men. This is a tricky one because women still haven't gotten a proper deal. No mandatory maternity leave in the U.S. You need to have the right employer or be rich, or take your chances. Men also have no paternity leave. Young men, however, have reality and testosterone working: they feel intuitively that they are the stronger gender, and for some key tasks they clearly are. You want an electrical worker to fix your power outage at 2am, a "lineman", you want someone who can safely lift a 100 pound transformer and place it in position. After chainsaws cut the fallen tree off the lines. Chainsaws also used by young-ish men. Yes, some women with enough training can do this, but we all know that more men can do this and with less fanfare. The same goes with infantry personnel in war. Doesn't mean that we live like the Taliban and restrict women's ability to work and thrive, but it does mean we admit that men matter and often in those really telling situations: some combat situations, some emergencies.
Young men can see that they can do essential stuff, and then they find hiring practices sometimes favor women. How is this going to work for them, how is this going to work for the credibility of a lot of our public life, including politics.
You are the only people who think you are automatic losers for being male. We can't be responsible for your trauma. Go get help so you don't have to obsess over thinking others think you are a loser. Advocating for the other is not an attack on you. Grow up.

@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat good point. thats my mistake.

I have young white man who works for me that has never voted before. When I encouraged him to vote before he gave the usual reasons why not. He is everything Prof G talks about. He is a very serious gamer, lives alone, isolated hasn't dated in years since his last serious gf. He got red pilled pretty hard after 2020. The lockdowns., mask vax mandates, etc all eroded his support of institutions. I noticed he had an I voted sticker on his jacket last week. Think of how empowered he must feel now, that in his first election he helped make the difference that turned 50/50 into 52/48. When young white men aren't feeling valued, this could be a singnificant group that no one is paying attention to. Everyone wants to blame white women for this result, but no one wants to credit young white men. America can keep ignoring them to its peril.
Hope they take credit for all the inflation that is coming.
It’s not possible for the Democratic Party to reverse 10 years of dogma and go….the future is for both men and women.
This is probably the best comment in here because it's the most truthful here's the part they don't understand almost no man goes from being a Republican to a Democrat and now that they pretty much stole the entire generation of voters they will only get stronger. It's at the point now I think men are embarrassed to admit their Democrats at least non-gay men. It's amazing how this shifted so fast just like the working class a Democratic party totally overplayed their hand by being the smug assholes that they are. You're totally right though and I agree 100% this is a change that I think only going to get bigger
"The lockdowns., mask vax mandates," how the hell did that erode his support? If that's the case, well, then he's not a real man then! Real men are vaccinated! And what's going to happen in another mismanaged pandemic (which by the way all happened under Trump). Mask mandates were under Trump; does he not remember that! Think of hopw empowering he'll feel next year when living in an autocracy!

You guys just don’t get. It’s easier to blame others than admit your own faults
And that's DJT trick: " the reason life isn't work for you in the way you wanted isn't your fault! It's "their" fault. And I'll tell you who "they" are: illegal immigrants, foreigners, elitist socialists...etc" So now here come a few Exec Orders to make it look as though DJT is fixing those problems. "See? Just like I promised! I'm fixing it!" Oldest trick in the book!
It's both.
We should be more like trump by blaming others and never admiting fault
@@NAGIUXSMaybe you're already there? Trump disgusts me. But that doesn't mean I am fan of the other side. The last four years haven't changed anything for America's working class. So they turned on the establishment. Can you really balme them? The Democrats handed us Trump, and that's hard to forgive.
She wasn't very good. Simple.
Trump went from working at McDonald's to Trash man to the most powerful position on earth. The American dream is still alive.
Fucking, bullshit.
If people have to work 70 hour weeks and two jobs to survive, the American Dream is as dead as Ronald Reagan.
Just wait and see what Baron does
Your comment is so classist. This is why the democrats lose. You are the same shit with a different “look”
Thats how you know the legal charges are fake, you cant work at McDonalds with a criminal history. :P
Facts
When they announced that Ted Cruz had won, I went to bed. That was when I knew it was over.
Senator Cruz is loved in Texas, Texas will ALWAYS be RED ❤
Lol
Not just won, but demolished by almost 10 points. If you thought Cruz could possibly lose in Texas, then you have been gaslighted.
It's insane how much money Democrat donors have thrown away trying to get Ted Cruz out of office.
"If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convinct you." -Senator Lindsay Graham (R)
Yeah, that's not a great sign.
The thinnest book in any library is the one titled "Great Moderates in American History.". 😂😂
What a beautiful week this has been . I’m so excited for the next four years and beyond .
Young men are tired being told they are a problem for being men. Tim Walz was more of that message.
I've been waiting for this and they did not disappoint. For me Schadenfreude at its best.😂
It is nice that Scott is providing group theory to fellow Winged Monkeys.
I’m not a highly educated elite , but I guarantee I make 3x the $ she makes.
Poor candidate, terrible campaign strategy, and all on short notice. Never had a chance
One of the most embarrassing, insulting, and unprofessional presidential runs ever.
@ idk why that’s so hard to understand. Love or hate trump or kamala, she’s representing the side people haven’t been pleased with, never had the full backing of democrats including biden, tons of campaign missteps and only a few months vs trump who’s basically been campaigning for 4 years. This reminds me of when a football team fires their coach in the middle of a season after several years of losing and the assistant coach takes over the bad team and continues to lose and never gets another shot of being a head coach cuz they go off their record of taking over a bad team midseason
@@biscaynesupercars doesn't matter how much time she had, kamala is not likable.
@@11FBA11 and then there is also that which goes back to the 1st line of my original comment, POOR CANDIDATE. She was the 1st one to bow out the 2020 dem primaries and hadn’t done anything since then to change anyone’s mind about her
I came to watch these two cope. It did not disappoint.
How are u going to cope several months from now when prices skyrocket due to Trump's tariffs?
😂😂😂
The whole analysis is: "We are so smart, why people don't understand and think like us?"
Galloway couldn’t cope harder. I get it, it’s hard for rich, urban elites to understand what every day people go through on a daily basis, but damn this dude is delusional
At his core Galloway is a low T liberal atheist college professor. These types have built the Democratic Party as they know it; and they will never quite get that working America hates them with a passion
@@Cdyoung15 He moved to London in 2022. Hard to relate when you live in another country.
What he doesn't get is that election represent a failure of trad-con model in favor of anti-establishment crowd. One thing I expect is more transparency in the gouverment with this new cohorte.
The opposite side of that coin though is Trump who comes from wealth, surrounds himself from people from wealth, lives part time at an exclusive resort who bankrupted every business he has, had his non profit disbanded. So I hear you, but you kinda voted for a Scott Galloway. Burden of proof is on you that they’ll do everything they said having never done it in history.
@@baffinsansterre LMFAOOO Are you serious??? This is the Alternative Facts people unchained. They have literally purged any adults in the room because the last time was a constant leak fest because of the behind the curtain freak show it was.

Im excited for "our " elites to digest reality as well
I was a lifelong democrat but don’t identify with them anymore
same here. i wont get into all the bits i dislike, but the dem party is straight up stupid.
SAME.
So you all didn’t vote?
It's crazy how they still are spending time discussing a roast Comedians single joke made at a rally. Like have you watched Kill Tony? Lol they frame him like he's a part of his cabinet 😂 it's delusional. Dems need to keep reflecting.. they are still so far off the mark.
So.......racism! Good choice. Real thinker there. Like Republicans have your interest at heart.🤣🤣🤣
This is a coping session 😂
The mental gymnastics required for a "professor" and this self-proclaimed "highly educated" person to conclude that "she just needed more time to run a better campaign to win" hurts my hair. .
That's the truth across the media. They are still insulting the voters. They will never learn and red will always win until they do
If anything, she had too much time lol. Trump was decimating Biden in the polls (especially if you correct for the polls consistent error underestimating Trump). When Kamala announced, the numbers did a complete 180, and for a solid couple weeks it looked like Kamala had it in the bag (even with correction for polls). But once the honeymoon period was over and Kamala was actually considered/scrutinized, the polls slowly and steadily shifted for Trump.
In hindsight, Kamala's only shot was her first week as the nominee. All downhill from there lol.
IF you were listening, the DID NOT CONCLUDE THAT.
@@Tyler-vw9bh She could have built on that and done well even in the short time she had, but she opted not to distance herself from Biden and to run a campaign that was mainly anti-Trump and pro-choice while ignoring the majority of voters, same as others have done before her. Her campaign was not all that different from Clinton's, and she went into it with more baggage thanks to her association with Biden. I think she could have been more plain-spoken and offered more distance from Biden and more ideas and policies of her own and done OK. She needed to demonstrate competence and build public trust, but failed to do that in my opinion. Even the day of the election, she was largely an unknown because her campaign communicated so little of substance.
How did you get that from what they said in this episode
Prof, I love your work and have even taken some courses on marketing and business at Section. I’ve been listening to you since 2016 when I started my career in advertising. I also regularly listen to your markets podcast.
I’m a Latino man who became more politically aware during Ron Paul’s presidential run in ‘08. I’d consider myself a libertarian now, but I still hold traditional family values, I’m religious, and generally feel like I’m made out to be the bad guy from Dems. I’m a hardworking guy, from the hoods of LA just trying to make it. But apparently I have so much privilege as a man that none of the socioeconomic, gang violence or lack of eduction means anything. I’m not seen as an individual.
No thanks Scott. I love your message about young men, but I can’t align with your party.
From one hardworking Latino living LA to another, I’m with you and the fact that Trump got 40% of the vote from California speaks volumes.
Galloway is a left wing feminist who pedestalizes women and insults men...
The majority has voted!
This is what democracy is all about
Good luck you all. I truly hope you’ll be happy with what’s ahead.
A replay of 1933
I spoke to a young guy, first time voter (DJT). He was upset that he could not buy the fast car and the live in the slick apartment, he had been working for three years on a $17hr wage. There is a skewed reality on what the world will give you. The USA can provide a great opportunity for anyone if they have a realistic view of the world and what they have to offer and what effort they are prepared to put into it. Too many podcasters and influencers living large give the wrong impression on what is possible if you do not have all the charm, charisma and street smarts to make it big at the speed of light, there is a lot of heavy lifting to make it in the USA, it is achievable. No political party is going to do it for you. I am sure many will wake up four years from now and realize nothing changed because they did nothing extra. The secret to monetary wealth is make money and then make the money work for you. I'll leave it to the guru's to advise on health and emotional wealth.
Ironically, you're giving conservative advice.
@@arthurswanson3285 just a reality I have lived through. No matter what your political leanings, once High School is over and you can't saunter through the 15mph traffic like life owes you something, it is a hard world where everyone has to compete for the resources. I am a centrist and lean left and right on specific policies, maybe an optimistic realist.
well if that is the message it certainly wasn't delivered by Donald Trump. they're going to get everything now, right? The truth is he sold them instead of free student loans, different bag of goods that will be empty.@@arthurswanson3285
I learned the same life lessons & share your leanings, bro.
It is not skewed, it's nostalgic. That is literally the world the boomers had.
"Two qualified women" - NO they weren't. If you don't get the country, you aren't qualified.
I’m a lifelong Democrat and Progressive of the ancient New Deal variety. A little bit more self exposition - I’m a big fan of Yuval Harari, Michael Lind & Peter Turchin. I appreciate your implicit recognition of some of Turchin’s ideas ie elite over production & popular immiseration. That said, the Democratic Party’s words concerning preservation of democracy did not match its actions. If I were fighting to preserve democracy, I would have: A) started project New Deal 2.0 in Jan ‘21; B) started public, Watergate style hearings on the insurrection no later than March ‘21; C) lead w & heavily publicized Lina Khan’s efforts; D) taken a unilateral, Democratic Party led, pledge to put all stocks and similar assets into blind trusts. No one who follows Nancy Pelosi’s stock trades believes Democrats are truly concerned with corruption and preservation of democracy.
I’m certain the legions of lobbyists, attorneys and analysts who profit from the current system will explain why these are unrealistic and naive goals. The thing is the average American knows enough about history to dismiss that. And for those (primarily working in corporate endowed nonprofits or academia) who will offer abstruse explanations on why America is too racist and/or misogynistic to ever allow anything like the New Deal to occur again; really? We’ve made no ground since Jim Crow? I’m sorry but, there’s a special place in hell for the descendants of the beneficiaries of the New Deal who use their subsidized (directly or indirectly) educations to get wealthy protecting rapacious corporations
Weird how quickly they conceded. As if democracy was never at stake.
*Rapacious

@@armanke13bloody spell check.
I don’t understand how Scotty can’t grasp the fact that nobody likes Kamala.
Well, he likes her and any Democrat, so therefore everyone should like her
He look at her from a white elite’s perspective. Supporting an incompetent black woman makes him feels good for himself
She finished dead last in a presidential run only a few years ago. Why did they think she'd be unbeatable a few years later after serving as an 80-yr old's sidekick. They needed a proper leadership race. A better competition even than the one that chose Joe Biden in the first place. He was already too old and moderate then. This is not an age for moderates and sages. You need warriors and new ideas, ideas of your own that you can force people to listen to.
She was unpopular in 2020 and heavily criticized even by her own party as a VP. When she became the nominee the media went on a sunshine pumping campaign about her and her image but it didn't change the fact that she was never likable or viable as the head of a national ticket.
Some people still think what the media says is real. So he's spent the past three months listening to CNN say "Kamala Harris is a Joyful Warrior" to all of their 37 viewers.
Kamala was the furthest thing from a qualified candidate. Can’t believe Scott went the misogyny route
@@TheTorturedGhostOfKirkDouglas People qualified for jobs usually can communicate clearly.
@@matttorrence2900 So what's Trump's covfefe excuse? He may have won, but he's about as eloquent as a cockney scullery maid.
@@TheTorturedGhostOfKirkDouglasI agree, she's overqualified to be a president; her only guilt is being positive, chill, reserved and with melanin in her skin. White rep women wouldn't be able to stomach all the credentials Kamala has. With Trump white women are going to be expected to work harder and still not going to reproduce. So what's the point having him?
@@TheTorturedGhostOfKirkDouglasThe problem with Kamala is that she was very unpopular as a presidential candidate in 2020 and was heavily criticized even by her own side as a VP until she became the nominee for president. Her approval rating never cracked 40% until she announced her run. Apart from that she didn't have a good background to be a successful presidential candidate because she had an image as a California progressive which didn't allow her enough centrist and republican crossover to win.
Ah, I've come across a wild moron.
I like Jessica and her thoughtfulness. It's super refreshing and far from the cope of so many on the Democratic side.
Ikr she's trying to figure out not just why they lost, but also pondering what winning might look like in the future
Moderate level-headed democrats make up the silent majority. But the loud unhinged vocal minority of the left have hijacked the party and are sinking the democratic ship. Social media algorithms give them much more attention than is healthy for society.
You guys still don't get it! Luckily for team red it seems you will never understand.
12:26 - SCOTUS not unprecedented:
Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945) - 8 appointments.
William H. Taft (1909-1913) appointed 6.
Richard Nixon (1969-1974) - 4 appointments.
Donald Trump (2017-2021) - 2024-2028… 3 so far a possible 5 appointments total.
And FDR also threatened to pack the court if they would not allow the New deal policies to go through.
I waited a year to watch this episode. So great to finally see the end of this. Jessica has massively changed her tune - which is great - sounding much better now; she even had a few good takes.
Easier to do now. See how long it lasts
“You’re a woman from 2016” awesome 😂
Biden v Trump 2024 was an unpopular rematch up. Two old men battling it out. Biden's opportunity was to announce he would not run again in 2022/3. It would have been a totally different election.
It's not just the economy. It's about broadly bad governance at the hands of the uni-party.
25 minutes in. Great introspective discussion so far! So glad you aren't blaming the voters like so many other Dems. Jessica, I'm a conservative fan of "The Five." You get so much flack in the comments over there. You are wonderful and insightful. I think the structure over there that makes you the token foil nakes you defensive or something. When you are calm and can take your time like you do here, you're wonderful and convincing. Anyway, coming here has made me a fan of yours.
Men and young men are tired of being treated like shit on the bottom of shoe and being treated as if they don’t matter, so they showed up in droves.
If guys 6’, with 6 figures and “6 inches” can barely be treated with respect and dignity what did they think would happen?
Awe, somebody want's to be told their special. Need a hug? You will see what you get when trump implements his moronic tariffs.
@@jeff1872tI hope he doesn't put tariffs on testosterone and people like you go get on it because that's the problem with this country we have way too many low testosterone men who can't think for themselves. Get on TRT you'll feel better about yourself trust me
Prof G went on CNN and said, "we are failing young men." They made their voices be heard on election night and I am proud of them.
Wokeness only pays the bills for people other than young men. And not even for them now. It's a new age.
Every time there is power outage here and the electricians climb those poles, use chainsaws to clear debris -- do all this at midnight in winter rain -- they are young men mostly. Always under 50 years of age. You have to lift 70 pound electrical boxes and place them in precarious positions. They deserve recognition for this. A 110 pound woman cannot do this work. I'm not sure that most women even want to do this work, or serve in the frontlines in war. I'm sorry, but this is why men matter. I was a miner at one point in my life. Very few women worked there. Probably more do today, but not even close to half yet. Until people recognize how people actually live and work, we will get some pretty surprising election results.
So, going forward when things get worse, way worse, what then?
Harris accepted the "nomination" when there was obviously a much stronger option in Shapiro. So Harris is also to blame.
You two are delusional. It was one of the worst campaigns ive ever seen.
It starts at the top.
Fundamentally she couldn't speak confidently and coherently off the cuff. People can spot a lack of leadership confidence and competence a mile off.
@@chrismartin5870 Not that I like Kamala, but that's bs. Trump was standing for 40 mins, playing music and saying nothing. He said immigrants are eating the pets. If Kamala did those things she would be declared mentally ill.
The last thing you can claim is that Kamala didn't speak as coherently as Trump.
@@chrismartin5870that’s just not true.
@@chrismartin5870 Please remember that Trump did not want another debate, after the first one, because it went so poorly for him. Harris did a decent job there. I really think that the main reason not more people voted for her is that she is a woman. In the current political climate people feel better with a guy there, even when it is a weird, orange guy.
The problem is some people know not how God works
I never heard of trump being convicted of rape. Can you cite that source please?

I love how everyone in "the media" talks about how "the media" failed and got it wrong. you have no shame.
Why is this show called Raging Moderates when you're both DNC operatives?
Nailed it
For real; they both admitted to bring democrat on this podcast a few eps a ago. the name is the biggest lie I ever seen. They are both super liberal.
Maybe change the name. I listen to get understanding of both sides. Started listening to Scott because he’s great with finance advice but disagree mostly with his political position
Why are so many people from the right acting like the average Democrat, especially their surrogates and popular personalities, aren't incredibly moderate? That's the whole point of the grievance of a lot of Bernie voters or supporters of the likes of AOC: The Democratic Party is centrist, if not center-right. And people decidedly on the left don't feel represented, especially by politicians who take a strong right turn to appeal to a broader electorate. Kamala Harris touted her being a gun owner and was eager to campaign with someone like Liz Cheney for a reason. People seriously need to break out of their echo chambers on both sides. Your perspective on what represents a moderate or, to quote another responder, a "super liberal" is totally and completely off.
Scott, you’re a brilliant man and I like a lot of what you have to say with regards to finance and life although we disagree on religion - which I pray that you will get to know Jesus and the power of Him over your life. God has the power to transform You and your life. I sincerely think a lot of you and will pray for your personal salvation - I mean that Sir!
You BOTH are missing the point. You’re both more concerned about who didn’t vote for her versus understanding why they didn’t vote for her. It’s because she had no baseline policy and failed as a Vice President and didn’t show up to offer solutions. So blaming white women and black men says more about who you both are which is biased people that simply don’t like Trump which is fine but he offers solutions - she simply didn’t which is why she lost plain and simple.
HOWEVER, Kamala is NOT and would NOT be beneficial for AMERICA! With regards to defending OUR country, she is not capable of negotiating resolution.
Scott, I respect you. How can you possibly respect her!
With regards to LIBERAL’s, it’s more about people voting AGAINST Trump than truly FOR Kamala!
Like you Scott, but please wake up and see the benefit Sir.
May God bless you!

It was absolutely her. She could never answer a question directly, she gave long winded answers, she flip flopped on every issue. it was all her fault
its insane for anyone to say it wasn't her fault. She tried her best but there was a reason she got barely any votes in the 2020 primary.
Her not being able to have strong convictions and plainly stating them turned a lot of people off. She was “nice” but not direct
It's not (just) her fault. She never should have been in this position. Biden should have announced he wasn't running by mid-2023, and a primary should have happened. She would never have been the candidate if that had happened.
Yeah …no. If that is the case …she should have swept the board ….i mean it was no weave or dementia ramble but hey…
no
I actually find Jessica’s self reflection here refreshing and rare.
Yeah it seems she has a little more of a relationship with people at Fox News (which I despise) and hears the perspectives from the other side. While most just live in their urban democrat bubble and have no sense of the feelings of others.
She's a moderate democrat and not super woke. Many moderate dems like her are SICK and TIRED of how woke and delusional the democratic party has become.
It will wear off in a week.
She works both in academia and Fox News, so she associates with people across the political spectrum instead of staying in a liberal bubble.
The immigration issue is becoming less and less valuable in the Mexican American community out parents who needed immigration reform are getting old or are dead so we can’t be held hold hostage with that issue
Why do the DEMs gloss over the fact that DEMs also Chose Biden over Kamala in primaries, in fact Kamala was first one out. So why isn't sexism or racist discussed in that race? What is race and sex only relevant when Republican wins.
Because you always go with the incumbent. And that's true on both sides as history (and not my opinion) tells us. How many times did you see a sitting Democrat or Republican president not being chosen to run for a second consecutive term?
The Dems effed up when they didn't make the switch a year ago and decided to gamble by sticking with Biden until 100 days before the election.
DNC tend to go for the establishment moderate bland candidate. Bernie was too much of an outsider who called too many of the wrong people out, so the DNC replaced him with Clinton. DNC wanted Biden in 2020 because he has the most experience inside Washington with deep connections in the US political system.
For three years the **standard media line** on Kamala replacing Biden was "She's just Biden but with worse favorability numbers".
That was common knowledge in the media right up until they got caught lying about Biden and decided they could fabricate Kamala 2.0 out of sheet metal and dreams. Then suddenly they decided "Kamala Harris is a Joyful Warrior" and completely forgot what they'd been saying for three years that "she's just Biden but with worse favorability numbers." And then the election results came in, and lo and behold... she's just Biden with worse favorability numbers...
I voted for Obama in 2008, Obama in 2012, and Hillary in 2016. Then in 2024 when I voted for Trump, they turned around and called me a sexist racist.
@@twelvecatsinatrenchcoat The first presidential election I was old enough to vote was in 2004. I was going through a short conservative phase from 18-21 (mainly due to discovering AM talk radio) and voted for George W Bush. But shortly afterwards, I became a super left progressive vegan (mainly due to college brainwashing me). I voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012, Clinton in 2016 (but much preferred Bernie Sanders), and Biden in 2020. I would have voted for Tulsi Gabbard or Andrew Yang if they were on the ballot. I voted for Trump in 2024.
I started becoming disillusioned by the left with the advent of Trump Derangement Syndrome in 2015. I didn’t like Trump then, but I didn’t think he was literally Hitler and didn’t go on psychotic rants whenever his name was brought up. I felt the over-the-top anger directed at Trump was performative to broadcast “I’m a good person!” or a form of mental disorder. However, it almost felt like a physical force was preventing me from voting for Trump in 2024 but when I finally put the pen to the paper to vote for Trump, I felt a great sense of guilt like I did something “evil”, but I also felt like I did the righteous thing. It’s weird how strong the brainwashing that Trump is Hitler has been, but I just reached a breaking point with the democratic party.
Jessica, Jessica - my favorite example of TDS. So enjoying this.
You can tell the difference in the way Jessica thinks vs. the other two. She actually has to talk to and interact with conservatives.

I've been a Union Carpenter in Chicago for 29 years and my family has run unions in Chicago since the 50s. When I started I was 19 years old, no blue-collar Union tradesmen voted Republican. Now it's 60/40 favoring Republicans. The main reason for the switch is 100% liberal ideology, woke-ism, pronouns etc, etc. The democratic party cannot continue to make it look like all they do is pander and care about the minority of the party. No one I know cares or talks negatively about college grads or the elite. The party has to get back to being the blue-collar union worker's party. Also, you can't keep pushing a woman on us it'll happen when it happens. Get away from condoning guys dressed up as girls playing in women's sports. You have to get away from the liberal niche part of the party, that will continue to lose you elections. Democrats are way out of touch and clueless with the blue-collar men and women now.
Those are all Fox News talking points; wait til your union gets decimated and prices skyrocket because of the tariffs.
The Supreme Court said the individual states have the sovereignty to determine their laws, including the laws regarding abortion. For decades battles have been fought at the state level about abortion. Many people do not heavily weigh the abortion issue when voting for president, but they do when they vote at the state level. Abortion is increasingly a state issue like education, the legalization vs. criminalization of drugs, etc.
The DNC really didn't want anyone to think about the practical reality of what this decision meant. That everyone in New York and California, and most of the country for that matter, was not losing anything. Many of those people now have this enshrined in their state constitutions. And it means this is no longer a national issue they have to hear about every four years. States that want it get it, states that dont dont.
For anyone who's interested, apparently our immigration system was modified around the civil Rights era to be more inclusive, I had so many loopholes that combined with the improvement of the Latin America ability for them to migrate cause our current immigration crisis to eventually implode
The Democrats did not vote and just stayed home, the math tells the story,over 13 million did not vote compared to 2020 and Trump only had about the same number as 2020.
Yep. Dems are less likely to compromise and demand a candidate who aligns with them politically nearly 100%. Many saw Kamala as too conservative or too woke and ended up not voting, voting third party, or voting Trump. It's nearly impossible for a candidate to appeal to enough democratic voters. The only type who could have won was Bernie Sanders., but the DNC put an end to that. Someone with strong convictions and rarely lies. Some who straddles the line between insider and outsider. AOC may have what it takes if she toned down the woke Twittering and shifted a tad more towards the center.
Exactly. And on top of that, there's still 30-40% of eligible voters who don't give a F and stayed home. Oh, and all the "alt" Jill Stein and RFK votes.... ad those up. It would have made a difference.
2020 was literally the largest election in American history. Before 2024, the 1st and 2nd places for most votes ever were Joe Biden in 2020 and Donald Trump in 2020.

He said in interviews I think it was a $380k+ bet on Kamala. He lost almost half a million dollars betting on this woman.
If inflation falls, this only means that prices are rising less quickly. Prices have therefore not fallen, but are rising slightly less quickly. If something has risen quickly from 2 to 5 dollars, then it is now rising less quickly from 5 dollars. But the price is still two and a half times higher than before. I don't know how many times I have to explain this. Either the participants in the conversation don't know this, which would be really bad, or they are lying, which would be even worse.
Prices won't come down unless there is deflation, which is really bad. Wage growth has to catch up with prices.
@ in theory you are right, but only in theory.
They don't know because buying groceries isn't a majority expense for them. Their household expenses are so small relative to their incomes/wealth, it barely makes a dent. bUt InFlAtIoN iS tWo pErCeNt is essentially the same as outing yourself as not down to earth. More than half of America is seeing their standard of living drop, and they held Democrats responsible.
you're a midwit convinced hes a genius lol prices falling is called deflation which is a bad thing and literally causes recessions. The target for inflation is 2%. This is basic stuff. The Fed also literally cut rates yesterday.. do you even understand what that means? Please actually learn some economics instead of pontificating about how much of a genius you are for repeating a talking point
@@arthurswanson3285deflation is not bad, stagflation is bad when prices go up and wages stay the same.
If you supported Kamala, you’re not a moderate…
The reality is that you can't have perfect. While I am pro choice (abortions and vaccines), it just ranks lower compared to Economy, Border Security, and all the wokeness.
Abortion is murder, not choice.
@@spartakos3178 not absent viability it isn't. Furthermore, the concept of abortion is indeed NOT a binary in the real world, i.e the one not beholden to superstitious adult bed time stories for people who struggle with the finality of life.
You're a moron.
@@mindful-789 Wokeness is gets getting sex changes without parental consent. Wokeness is making a major part of your identiy about infinite genders and sexualities. Wokeness is claiming "no human is illega!" but once you neighborhood has one too many illegal immigrants, you want them out. Or you complain about the rise in crime and all the stuff that comes from massive influx of illegal immigrants but blame everything but the broken immigration system. Wokeness is about implementing feel-good utopian solutions like rent control and ignoring or severely downplaying the negative effects. Wokeness is the breakdown of family and the rise of broken homes with the rise of mental illness. Wokeness is...
@@mindful-789thinking that black people cant get ahead cause of racism as opposed to the obvious factors like single motherhood rates, inability to read and write at grade level, terrible decision making, etc.
20:00 Hilary and Kamala are supremely unappealing. We'll vote for a woman, but how do you expect the common man to believe they can relate to us when they move and sound like the living embodiment of a corporate manager? Does anyone remember Hillary's "thists"? It was as if they had a focus decide on how to make her look strong but not "too strong". SO unnatural. When you see someone being genuine you know it. We dont know who Kamala is.
Better the devil you know...
And who cares what they say. Look at what they do (or don't do).
I would vote for Candace Owens. Keep an eye on her, she is going to be in and around politics for many years to come
Very true comment. People are not motivated to vote for robotic HR managers. A woman can be elected president, she just needs to genuine with energy and passion.
Tulsi has a better chance of winning. Democrats are dumbasses for ostracizing her.
Listening to this podcast and looking at the title of it.. lol. You can try to convince yourselves that your moderates if that makes you feel better.
Saw news asking exit polls. Young men said they saw Trump on Rogan. I told everybody she could have been first to Rogan he wanted to be wooed…to just talk like a normal person which is what Trump did for 3 hours on Rogan’s pod. Who knows what would have happened?
She would reveal that she's been fake
@@BAD_CONSUMER you may feel that way, but at least she had actual bills and plans ready to be implemented. He has yet to say what he’s gonna do besides tariffs, which almost buried us the first time around I can’t name one thing he’s going to do besides the illegals which I promise you won’t happen at the level, he says.
She's not normal, she's an empty vessel.
@@BAD_CONSUMER Maybe but we will never now. So much for her following the "experts" advice. Another blunder was pouring money and time in Iowa using the advice of the "expert" Selzer.
Little more complex than Rogan. There is a wide, deep well of misogyny and racism in America. The felon's voters won't admit it, but misogyny and racism were factors.
MAGA didn't like $5 eggs but they were okay with electing a felon and adjudicated fraud and abuser. Trump will implement Project 2025. It'll strip Americans, including MAGAs, of freedom, but Project 2025 isn't likely to lower the price of eggs. The NYC silver spoon will help guys like Musk and Thiel; he won't help MAGAs anymore than he helped Trump U victims.
I’d like to say I enjoy your podcasts and I hope you keep them up. I’d like to make some observations , this is from a Canadian looking in at this election.
1. it was obvious to me Trump was going to win
2. Kamala did as good as she could given the hand she was delt by Biden
3. Kamala answered no questions in any interview but just served up a word salad but still came only 4% of the vote which means that only that amount was in play with those who voted
4. Trumps numbers in voting hasn’t changed over 3 elections, Biden had 81M votes Kamala had 66M where did the 15M votes go.
5. Trump didn’t win the election the Democrats lost it by not working and thinking voters would vote for anyone they put up
6. The main street media and the entertainment complex only message was Trump is a nazi and a fascist. Instead of bringing facts the first thing out of everyone’s mouth was that slur
7. The Dems just only pushed the above narrative rather than focusing on people
8. The US and Canada are both ready for a real female President or Prime minister you just don’t need one with huge baggage (Hillary) and one with no personality Kamala (she may have one but it doesn’t translate)
9. all you have to do is look at the rest of the world and see the way countries are voting, only outlier is the UK who voted in a Labour government but on a very tiny percentage of the vote. This should have been a warning to the Dems and the media but they were too busy calling everyone fascists to see
10. The average person doesn’t care about politics, all they want is a government that works.
11. As for the transgender and DEI stuff I find when you push it too far the backlash from the regular voter who still is the majority comes fast and furious and the repercussions as devastating and will hurt those who actually need help back over a decade.
Keep up the good work!!!
This comment is better analysis than 10 of the last hysterical broadcasts that I’ve watched in this election.
Regarding your last point, this campaign did not push that stuff one iota. In fact, every time she was asked about it, she shut it right down. She literally said, "Next question."
9. Please don’t forget my country Australia in that outlier list… makes two major English speaking nation with immigrants, multi cultural and multi class populations to still choose labour after a long conservative govt ruling with right wing connotations.
World is complex and people are seeing beyond identity politics and looking at economics and peace.
@@ItsHH90that means she’s down 10M votes, it’s how disconnected those voters are. Are they now independents? Or just disinterested citizens because neither sides polices have energized them. All questions that need to be asked to be asked which is complicated and can’t be answered in a 30 second or less sound bite.
@@knightsofazeroth but how much would be an acceptable difference for you to not question? if she got 75m and Biden got 80m a 5m difference make sense? I mean she lost why wouldn’t it be less than Biden who won in 2020? It makes sense to me that 10 million people didn’t vote or voted for the other parties considering some of the political issues like Gaza. But also in 2020 there were a lot of mail in ballots due to Covid which is really convient for people which could be the cause of the up tick. But the idea that it was rigged is ridiculous why wouldn’t they rig it again considering there was more to lose like the senate house and potential 2 justices set to retire. I think she’ll probably get 72m by the end of it all which means she lost 8 mill which makes sense.
"Wokeness" really matters. I play computer games, love movies. The anti-wokeness discussion has been going on non-stop for 2 years at least. A dozen of the latest blockbuster games and movies have failed because of wokeness. By "wokeness" I mean franchises have replaced male heroes or racially white/beige people with women and individuals of color. Star Wars movies and games -- and with it Disney -- are especially a target here. But also Marvel/movies, also games like Bioware's Dragon Age. Or Dustborn. Good stories have been replaced by lectures. People hate preaching, they hate over-compensation, they hate it from top to bottom. I hate it and am on the Left -- I vote New Democatic Party in Canada.
What is missed on the wokeness thing is 2 things: it is to some extent an intent to change "bad" assumptions and thinking; it tends to overlap with money and affordability. Regarding the latter: games and movies are more expensive all the time, so replacing heroes feels more destructive and insulting when a game, for example is 90 bucks USD vs. 14 bucks USD.
Not all gamers are Trumpers, probably barely half. But we all gamers hate wokeness and this means the blurry, joyful "middle" -- looking at you Dems -- is really not on board and will look the other way or even vote for genuine if depraved Trump. Phoney is worse than fascist, at least in terms of appearances. We will see how far Trump goes down the fascist road -- if he is as destructive to democracy as he might be, this will change things.
People don't always vote rationally or according to habit. Emotions and change can play a role too. And basic credibility. I'm Canadian and it has taken me a better part of 10 years to realize that Canada will not be "leading" anything in terms of tackling climate change. We have to follow and work with other countries. 40 million people don't get to tell 10 billion what to do.
What did she say "as a higjly educsred elite"?!!! Therein madam, lies the probkrm. Stopped at that pkint < 1 minute. Record.
Drunk posting and 2nd grade spelling is half the problem.
@@ericmiller773 no it isnt. i get his point clearly.
She lost me the moment she said that.
I took it as she was kinda calling it like it is and she was also talking about the problems inherent with her position and status, in that her perception can be skewed. Most in her position think they know it all, but she was calling her cohorts and self out.
@@jenniferwildflower4249 That’s a fair point.
Republicans have the youth now, which means they have the future.
Who else is a “highly educated” American watching these out of touch lefties whine? Effing hilarious.
Exactly. White suburban mom here with several degrees. These people are so out of touch; it’s stunning. Trump is my guy.
Probably the best, most nuanced take on this election I've heard so far.
I recommend that if you guys want a real understanding of why people voted for Trump and rejected Kamala, maybe have an interview with a regular male Trump voter. Instead you have on biased journalists who give you BS. Most men hate these idiots.
Or watch @allin
This was a shade more polite than what one heard on The View, MSNBC, Vanity Fair etc. But the same talking points.
This is the guy writing a book about masculinity? Escaping with alcohol and drugs... self-loathing? The nerve this guy has bad mouthing Jordan Peterson, when urged young men to be more responsible and clean their room.
This is what happens when you don’t read the market properly. Lesson learned folks.
Lots of great point here. I can’t vote for a party or candidate that thinks a man that puts on lipstick should compete in women’s sports. The party has gotten weird.
That is understandable, but a party doesn't think. I don't know one Democrat that thinks a man should put on lipstick and compete in women's sports. I am sure there are some but probably no more than there are Republican's that believe that the Democrats control the weather or the Jews have space lasers. I don't know one of them either. Why? Because almost no one is that weird despite which party they align with. This is the kind of stuff that is being used to create different realities so we hate each other. I must admit I have an aversion to ugly trans people although I believe all people deserve to be treated with dignity and should be free to do what they wish as long as they don't harm anyone. You know, to each his own.
Thanks for this talk. Much needed.
