It's sad , really tragic, that these two intelligent men don't focus on the two issues that gave Trump the election -- the economy and illegal immigration.
Because they are not really issues. Trump torpedoed the immigration bill and the economy is on the right path. Trumo lies and they love it. The uneducated love Trump....
You’re joking, right? The money was on both sides. A billion dollars was spent by pacs for both sides. If you honestly believe that the money in politics (on both sides) is not a problem, you win…..no need to argue.
We have got to get the political parties out of our gerrymandered voting processes and districting. NO good reason for "party affiliation" required of voters, where it starts.
Those people who are blue-collar workers (like me), without college education, who are going to need their social security benefits, if not Medicare or medicaid, voted for the party that wants to actually take these earned benefits from them. This is absolutely mind-boggling.
Whereas voting D is better for those who've lost their jobs, millions both blue and white collar, to foreign workers? Because open borders and everyone living outside the borders is far more important? It's better for the planet, to keep shipping in nearly all consumables in from around the globe? Because global elite are most profitable with buy low from 3rd world, sell high in our market? Yes, we will pay a price for this. Libertarian are ready to pounce: market safety and market integrity regulations, gutted.
Yeah agree. If the Democrats keep saying in man that is not a bleeding heart woke liberal must be toxic, they will never get those men back to vote for them. I too am sick and tired of feminists tell me I should apologise for being a man and liking to do manly things.
You are right that maybe we do not understand young men who seem uninformed. This is not the area most Dems are comfortable. This is going to require asking what values we are willing to compromise for the sexist pig vote.
All I can say to this is, now they get to have 4 more years - if they are lucky to just have 4 - of how well they will do with Trump. And they will deserve what they get. Sadly the rest of us will not.
YOU voted for the last 4 years and made the rest of the country suffer through higher inflation, crime, illegal immigration and foreign wars...take some accountability!
Yea sure. Millions of illegals pouring into the country, drugs killing a hundred thousand a year. Trump might be a big dick but he's the big dick America needs right now to clean the shit up.
Thank you. Biden should NEVER have been allowed to run a second time. He was supposed to be a bridge candidate. The Dem candidate would have had time to build a real campaign. The national Dem party is too much about “ so and so put in time so they deserve “ (see Clinton, Biden’s second run) as opposed to who can actually win or at least bring new ideas.
I agree to a certain extent. But based on an experiment I did with the internet algorithms, I'm not sure how much a different candidate could have done. The kind of propaganda I saw takes at least 4-10 years to build and worm it's way in. I was in shock with the level of gaslighting I saw. The manipulation is masterful. To be honest, the propaganda began to be planted 2-3 decades ago. And now it has born the fruit it was always planning to bear. The only way out at this point will be painful lessons and hardships.
Maybe the Democratic Party needs to create a mechanism that would’ve enabled the party base to push Biden out. Not sure how we’d do this. Maybe it’ll be more acceptable now for folks like Pelosi and other top party folks to force the issue.
@@BeDifferent77csac It would have made a difference. Voters assumed Kamala was Biden part 2. If the Dens would have chosen someone not associated with the Dem failures, such as inflation, then the results could have been different.
Out of all the stupid things this country has gotten itself into, this will go down in history as the dumbest and most short-sighted...so far. The levels of ignorance in this country on how economics and linear time works is stunning and depressing.
Lots of justifiably angry people. Neoliberalism, a bust. Unfortunately, Libertarian have been waiting in the wings for this, fanning the flames. Regarding "how economics work", they know their own household economics and it's failing. As for, "dumbest and most short-sightest", do a youtube search for Jonathan Pie and "President Trump: How & Why.."
If you ever watched the Jay Leno All Stars brief interviews of people on the street, the level of ignorance of many americans would not actually surprise you. A typical question might be something like .... can you name our neighboring country to the North? Answers coming back might range from Oregon, to Mexico, to Russia, to I'm not sure. Or another tricky one was can you name the 3 branches of the federal government? Many could not.
If you’re so smart and intelligent, how come these ignorant people out voted you? Maybe you’re not as smart as you think?🤔 I can assure you that your pompous condescending attitude will never get them on your side.
You do know it was Reagan and Bush and Republicans that were the architects of NAFTA right? When Clinton got into office it was already ratified by congress.
To an extent, yes. But I think Blue Dog Democrats would rather "rule in Hell than serve in Heaven", i.e., they do not want their party--or the country--to veer leftward at all, even if it means compromising their historic base. Lots of fat cats like NAFTA, and that's why most Blue Dogs do too.
Most Americans can't afford to buy a house, they can barely pay their Rent. At the grocery stores we put back 3 to 4 items weekly. Our kids, mommy can I get this? No, not this time, maybe next week. Next week never comes.

Not sure which America are you talking about. I am in Northern NJ and everyone here is relatively wealthy and houses $2 million and up get sold in less than 2 weeks. Try buying a business now - say any top franchise - all sold out. In my neighborhood a Middle Eastern guy is building a $20 million home. Maybe I am out of touch with reality but between Miami and NJ I only work, interact and socialize with people who are way better off now than say in 2016.
@satyakammisra nothing like a Northern New Jerseyian bragging about his upper class status. Try stepping out of your bubble. Try taking a drive to Trenton, Jersey City, etc.
I just about the Dems not honoring the working class. Biden crossed a picket line and worked hard to win over the working people; didn't the president of a major auto industry endorse the dem Party?
Cumulative inflation: 25% increase in food prices, 20% increase in rent, interest rates more than double. Cumulative inflation impacted most voters and was not "transitory" as termed by the Biden administration.
You are correct. Biden joined a picket line. All unions endorsed Harris, except for the Teamsters, and many locals among the Teamsters broke with national and endorsed Harris. Beyond that many of Biden’s policies were focused on increasing power for labor and supporting American manufacturing. Examples included appointing Lina Khan at the FTC and passing the CHIPS act.
In these areas Dems have a messaging problem and they come across a bit too milktoast. They need to lean into it and really hammer it home especially on media that blue collar watch/listen to. Even if it’s fox or Rogan let them call them communists or whatever but forcefully make the case for unions or labor on things like this.
Making room for more alphabet letters, pronouns, illegal immigrants and fringe minorities, instead of listening to the majority constituents needs, equals losing.
@@jerseycatmews828 If you want someone to kowtow to you while you are being a fool get a dog. Donald Trump is a man without character; he is a abusive creep & lifelong deadbeat, who has used the law to cheat people all of his career.

He is barely literate (does not read) and has a very self-centered view of the world that as led to 6 bankruptcies and many criminal charges, including a documents case that would put you or me in prison for 20 years.

Good luck. After a long career in public health, I have not been in America 14 years and since both of my children have great job and will get substantial tax reductions for what Trump does to harm average Americans (reduced Services and a monumental national debt increase), I should not even care, and at my age I might not, if Donald Trump was not the first national politician to bring actual Nazis into his fold in my life time.

@@robertkasnak1646 The devastating damage of neoliberalism on the public welfare. Aka, globalism. And, ignoring the justifiable anger it generated. Trump is in office because he acknowledged the anger. He isn't likely to fix the damage, but he isn't going to deflect the anger with "Racists! Xenophobes!", which only further pissed off the already angry. How angry? The nation just elected a convicted narcissistic fraud, _that_ is how angry. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
The Democratic party abandoned and betrayed their base long ago. So ... the corporate party lost to the oligarchs in a vote to burn it all down. What country do you two live in?
The democrats need to change. They need to stop accepting lobbyists' money. They need to stop genocidal money dealing with AIPAC. Believe me, I voted for Harris. But I held my nose. So, have at it!
Maybe go to the center on the woke culture war stuff, but not economically and on foreign policy. She needed to go hard left in those two areas, and didn't. Campaigning with the Cheney's was an absolutely a horrific decision.
I agree 100% with what was said about Biden's HUGE mistake of running for re-election, especially at his age. In fact, he had promised that he would not do that. He should have let Dems choose another candidate and held a normal convention. I like Harris, but giving her only a short period of time to run a campaign was going to prove a horrible choice. So many people are responsible for the outcome of this election. I do NOT blamer Harris.
When a nation elects ungodly people, who champion abortion, and wants to feed us the horse manure of this transgender madness, such a people or nation in any day or age will go extinct.No obedience to God and His moral absolutes means no future, none.

As a Hispanic woman, I am not surprised that many Hispanic men did not vote for a female candidate. There can be cultural factors at play, including traditional views on gender roles. Historically, Latin American countries have had few female presidents (less than 10). Understanding these cultural nuances would have been important.
We had 4 years to prosecute someone who broke the law several times, however we weren’t even able to hold him responsible for even ONE crime. He proved that he could coerce, finagle, intimidate, bribe and slip through the legal system for YEARS without penalty. He proved by cheating he could WIN, with all his street smarts and connections. So he came across as an aggressor that could accomplish big things and it didn’t matter how., even if it meant breaking the law.

His supporters don't think Trump committed any crimes. (or don't care) They are happy the charges will be dropped, because they think they were trumped up [no pun intended]. However, there is one issue both sides agree on: Merrick Garland was a terrible attorney general -- just for opposite reasons. He will be unloved by both side now.

No more transgender horse manure, no more of hunting little babies in the womb,and millions of us will rise and defend traditional marriage defined only as the union between one male and one female.

It depends on what sort of "centrist" one's talking about. An establishment centrist is what you're describing. But there are also anti-establishment centrists, who, for example, don't take extreme stances on identity politics issues.
trump and musk had a total of 2 votes between them. trump got 73+ million votes. i would imagine that the vast majority of trumps votes came from people who demographically should be in the democratic base. this is a total democratic problem.
Buy a mirror. Trump won because Dems were pssed at DNC and stayed home to make a statement. Harris was a subpar candidate. And wasn’t even smart enough not to lionize war criminals like Liz and Dick Cheney… like, are you KIDDING me?!?
You needed back in 2021 a joe biden (and thats a clue, the actual wouldn't do this) get up at the podium and bang it with his fist and declare angrily "this criminal trump has left us with high inflation since Nixon, we must fight fight fight and get it down" and keep doing this for 6 months at least every day
Won't help if the media, especially Fox news and Elon Twitter, won't cover it, nor explain that much of the inflation actually came from corporate greed and shrinkflation... and Biden and the Fed DID fix it. When one candidate (and all followers) refuse to even understand how tariffs work , and their on-purpose inflationary effect, then... god help us..
The Democrats refused to listen to Americans about the border and overemphasized gender issues when food prices were going up. The general public needed a 40 minute PowerPoint on plans for the economy. Maybe Trump was destined to be back, because Kamala is a brilliant speaker but never got around to getting specific about her plans for the next 4 years. A PowerPoint and Exhibits might have helped some. Plus, it's weird how people don't even recall T saying we will never have to vote again.... Weird. I'm not sure how things will pan out, but some of T's campaigns promises were scary. Like, dude, what do you mean we will never vote again???
It's because people are just too effing stupid, ignorant, bigoted, and backward to know much of anything, and that is why the higher the education, the more likely to be liberal. No kidding! We all heard and saw what Trump did during his last term and then Biden won by a landslide, but people expect everything to be just wonderful in a week or two...because they are so clueless. Inflation has gone down, the job rate has gone up and businesses are doing better, but people are so gullible they believe all the misinformation/disinformation spewed out by the right wing. And then there's the fact that Trump is incoherent at times, dumb, bigoted and wants to be a dictator. So, now our country is gone...I guess all the cons are happy about that.
I agree, the Dems and Kamala were completely out of touch. They stood on abortion, lowering drug prices, and affordable housing. Clearly that missed, big time.

64% of Republicans think that Democrats and Republicans should spend less time talking about transgender issues and more time talking about voters' priority issues like the economy and inflation.

A political party trying to insert itself between parents and their children, that's a sure way to lose an election every time. The dems can pretend in the 11th hour like it never happened but, hey, it's too little too late at that point. Maybe next time they won't mess with peoples' children.
Let's be honest, it was about people focusing on themselves personally rather than what was good for the country as a whole, and at the same time not (or not wanting to) understand that either a) the President has little, if any, direct control over the price of eggs or gas or b) that Trump's policies are going to make those things even worse. Also, as refrenced, misogyny, racism, plus apathy (19 mil or so fewer chose not to vote compared to 2020).
@@karlkessler6017 Interesting. The Presdent can only do EO's unilaterally, but if they involve expending money the implementation still has to be approved by Congress, as did all the student debt relief, which not one single person has been saying. All the was approved by Congressional budget measures as riders on other bills. Again, the veto can be overridden if Congress has enough of a majority. Speaking of inflationary mindset, what's your take on Trump planning to deport millions of foreign workers, how will that affect the economy when they provide so much of the low-wage workforce to produce our food and build our homes and structures? Also, what will his tariffs do? There sure seems to be a huge misunderstanding, by him and many citizens, that tariffs are NOT PAID BY THE COUNTRY THEY'RE PLACED ON. The US companies who IMPORT pay them and then pass that higher price on to CONSUMERS.
@@karlkessler6017 So deporting the cheap labor who work for half or less than American workers will demand, even if they suddenly become willing to take those jobs, is going to keep food prices lower? Notwithstanding that much of high prices for food is based on a few monopoly corprations controlling it all and some outside influences like avian flu. The problem with your argument about moving to American manufacting includes that same question on top of the fact that since we moved manufacturing out because of the cheap foreign labor we don't currently have the infrastructure (factories are gone) and the price of building that back will raise the prices to even higher than what we pay for imports. Similar imported products are sold at discount stores while the same quality products made in America are sold at high end stores at drastically higher prices. Have you been buying American made products over foreign? What's the price difference?
Don't forget to mention Biden replying when asked whether sending oil and natural gas to Europe to supplant Russian oil would cause inflation here, said , Americans dont mind a little inflation. " Look it up. It is on record.

The problem with embracing populism is that in order for the democrats to actually provide some sort of economic justice they'd need to heavily clamp down on immigration. Massive immigration places downward pressure on working class occupations which is why it was a top #2 issue for voters. Unfortunately for the democrats this is a very divisive issue without their own cohort. There's a bunch of university grads who love this immigration because it's basically unlimited cheap labour for them so they just echo any economic talking point to prevent it. Then you have the student protestors who treat any immigration restrictions as "racism". The dems need to have a reckoning on this subject.
Ohhhh WAIT!!! I forgot: Sen Lankford had proposed an immigration BILL remember??? but donnie told his peers : "KILL IT." in order to have something to campaign on. YEAH keep blaming DEMOCRATS on immigration. Immigration crossings are down on BIDEN's tenure. WAYYYY down than they were on donnie's tenure. REMEMBER???
Dems need to get labor involved here and make it clear that immigration is necessary for building a strong economy but also needs boundaries which is where a joint say so with labor may work.
Immigration is not the problem to our economy. Immigration actually helps the economy. We have to compete with China’s 1.6 billion people when we don’t even have half that number.

You see…… we fell for what the right fell for in 2020. We largely listened and watched like minded media (silos) that led us to believe the wind was at Harris’s back while reality blew by. It’s our own fault. The sooner we come to that realization the better.
So long as "we" means Far Left, Ds will have a problem. So long as the elected candidate solely addresses what the elites want, the pendulum will vacillate wildly.
Stop over analyzing the result of the election. This guy Martin summed it well at the beginning: the consumer didn’t want the product, just like any company must find the right products for its clients, it’s that simple. I am a Canadian citizen and I have a friend who is born in America and he has the US citizenship of course. He has live in Canada all his 60 year life. He told me he voted for the orange clown. I knew he would do that. How in the world do you think a grown up man, non-college educated, frustrated with many aspects of life would vote for a short, small, black, woke woman? Not a chance! Also, there was a simple question that was asked to Americans. It is do you think the country is going in the right direction? More than 72% of the people said no! I knew immediately that the Democrats were toasted! This said, it is almost @ certainly that the clown in chief will cause so much chaos that if there are elections in 4 years, the GOP will be defeated. However, if the Democrats want to win, they will have to identify the right candidate that the population in general will feel comfortable with.
Agreed. I feel it very likely that the Trump admin will over reach. They have ideologically committed to it, including mass deportation. It will be a horror show. And that will be the chance.
@ I take the right to be condescending towards a majority of people who vote for a criminal, a sexual predator, a fraud, a racist, etc. Please tell me that out of 340 million people in America that the orange face is the best person for the job?

Second Vice: After becoming the nominee, Vice President Harris waited too long to define herself politically. Third Vice: Vice President Harris spent more time saying why Donald Trump shouldn't be President than why she should be President. Fourth Vice: Vice President Harris over prioritized social influencer media at the expense of traditional media. Fifth Vice: Vice President Harris picked a weak running mate. Sixth Vice: President Harris relied on too narrow a circle of advisers. Seventh Vice: What aboutism: The Late Start, Ukraine, Gaza, and Epstein. Eighth Vice: Racism and misogyny were salient factors for the loss but not decisive factors for the loss. Ninth Vice: If these vices were so toxic, then why didn’t Vice President Harris, Democratic Congressional Leadership, and the Democratic National Committee address them during the campaign? Tenth Vice: Vice President Harris failed to address the underlying issues that made Trump’s Presidency possible; Decades Long Neglect of K-12 Education, American Manufacturing, and Corruption.
All good, but I have to add more: 1) She needed to distance herself from Biden, so she wouldn't be attached to his failures, specifically inflation. She didn't clearly state how she would be different. In fact she mostly said she will keep doing things the same. 2) She ran on abortion, lower drug prices, and affordable housing. Sorry, border and crime "Trump" her issues.
And the general anti-incumbency mood around the post-pandemic world (re: inflation, etc) wasn't a major factor? Haven't many incumbent governments fallen over the past few years? It would've been a landslide if a traditional Republican ran.
Inflation that comes from the greed of corporations-Will Trump put guardrails on them? No. Trump wants tariffs-if you think things are expensive now brace yourself.

Move the economic platform to the left or lose repeatedly until you do, dems. You lost because the working class stayed home or voted GOP. The rosy economic data is meaningless if you don't feel it.
That’s a testimony of a dumb and ill-informed voter. Trump understands that keeping people dumb benefits him to promote his lies. You want to see a great example of that, see Putin in Russia and how he manipulates education and the news in Russia.
Thank God Trump is back in office!!! No more Democrats and life with people who totally deny reality actually exists. We are so sick and tired of being told what to think and do.

You guys made a lot of good points. Here's my take on Reasons Trump Won (higher cost of living being the biggie): 1) Christian nationalists who see Christianity dying and see Trump as a last-ditch effort to gain legislative power 2) identity politics - people vote red no matter what (aka. Republicanity) 3) the flyover states see themselves as “real America” and feel under-represented 4) the electoral college gives the smaller states more seats/power 5) Republicans gerrymandered districts 6) Hollywood (and corporate America) has been taken over by left-wing activist writers and producers pushing DEI and "woke" garbage and people are tired of it. Multiple billion-dollar franchises were ruined due to culture-wars (Disney Star Wars, Marvel, Lord of the Rings, Ghostbusters, Terminator) 7) strong anti-immigration sentiments and xenophobic/racist rhetoric (want stronger border & mass deportation for illegals) 8) conspiracy theorists (the average Republican feels the previous election was "stolen") 9) Christians who view abortion as baby-murder 10) 20% of American investors own Crypto and Trump said he’d give it government backing 11) right-wing media is brutally effective in their messaging 12) lack of leadership and lack of messaging on the Democratic side 13) Elon Musk and Joe Rogan endorsed Trump (helps bring in the male 18-34 vote) 14) anger at the govt shutdown during the pandemic 15) voters wanted CHANGE at all costs, even if it means burning down “the system” 16) cost of living is way up (food, housing, gas) so voters blame the party in charge 17) the bullet that grazed Trump’s ear (Christians will see as a sign from God) 18) the average American hates MSM (mainstream media) ever since Trump called CNN “fake news,” so most Americans get their news from FOX and other right-wing echo chambers, causing political illiteracy. 19) Social media also creates echo chambers (the algorithm feeds you more of what you like) 20) anger at Israel and the Gaza war/genocide. Also, Trump said he'd stop the Ukraine war and the average American is selfish and doesn't want to spend billions of dollars on other countries. 21) Kamala failed to distinguish herself from Joe Biden who is historically unpopular

The people not dead from plain sleeping outside without access to running water or bathrooms anymore, or in jail indefinitely over and over after being criminalized for being asleep on public property, are just trying to live and not have any communication stolen from them as they show up for court dates for existing somewhere outdoors. Most of their previous long time addresses still boarded up unoccupied. the last year or four. Deals might've been flipped, but whatever proposal of new business venture other than flipping amongst billionaires obviously can't be sustained or supported by the people who lost their livelihoods, to that game of anonymous equities corporations all under the few umbrellas. The same people could still be living there regularly paying reasonable rent that gives space in the income for the rest of basic living expenses too, but nope. If they had addresses and could keep IDs again, while they had to sleep, they'd have shown and voted.

2024 - The "No Funding for Sanctuary Cities Act" is being introduced by Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, and would amend federal law so that any jurisdiction that blocks federal immigration enforcement would be ineligible for a range of federal law enforcement grants and any other grant administered by the Department of Homeland Security or Department of Justice. It would also require the DHS secretary to report to Congress how many states and localities are not complying with federal immigration enforcement. It says that any funds that are withdrawn from sanctuary jurisdictions can be diverted to those that are in compliance.

You are right that maybe we do not understand young men who seem uninformed. This is not the area most Dems are comfortable. This is going to require asking what values we are willing to compromise for the sexist pig vote.

Thank you. Biden should NEVER have been allowed to run a second time. He was supposed to be a bridge candidate. The Dem candidate would have had time to build a real campaign. The national Dem party is too much about “ so and so put in time so they deserve “ (see Clinton, Biden’s second run) as opposed to who can actually win or at least bring new ideas.
I agree to a certain extent.
But based on an experiment I did with the internet algorithms, I'm not sure how much a different candidate could have done.
The kind of propaganda I saw takes at least 4-10 years to build and worm it's way in.
I was in shock with the level of gaslighting I saw. The manipulation is masterful.
To be honest, the propaganda began to be planted 2-3 decades ago. And now it has born the fruit it was always planning to bear.

We have Bill Clinton and NAFTA to thank for the demise of the Democratic Party,
That makes zero sense. Democrats were at an all time high 4 years ago with the Blue Wave.
We knew Hillary was gonna lose over NAFTA, austerity only serves the rich and embitters the people.
Yup. Shafta. 😂
You do know it was Reagan and Bush and Republicans that were the architects of NAFTA right? When Clinton got into office it was already ratified by congress.
To an extent, yes. But I think Blue Dog Democrats would rather "rule in Hell than serve in Heaven", i.e., they do not want their party--or the country--to veer leftward at all, even if it means compromising their historic base. Lots of fat cats like NAFTA, and that's why most Blue Dogs do too.

Maybe I am out of touch with reality but between Miami and NJ I only work, interact and socialize with people who are way better off now than say in 2016.

I just about the Dems not honoring the working class. Biden crossed a picket line and worked hard to win over the working people; didn't the president of a major auto industry endorse the
dem Party?
That argument is too complicated for Americans. They wanted Trump…..they got him.
Cumulative inflation: 25% increase in food prices, 20% increase in rent, interest rates more than double. Cumulative inflation impacted most voters and was not "transitory" as termed by the Biden administration.
You are correct. Biden joined a picket line. All unions endorsed Harris, except for the Teamsters, and many locals among the Teamsters broke with national and endorsed Harris. Beyond that many of Biden’s policies were focused on increasing power for labor and supporting American manufacturing. Examples included appointing Lina Khan at the FTC and passing the CHIPS act.
In these areas Dems have a messaging problem and they come across a bit too milktoast. They need to lean into it and really hammer it home especially on media that blue collar watch/listen to. Even if it’s fox or Rogan let them call them communists or whatever but forcefully make the case for unions or labor on things like this.
It was obvious that neither Biden nor Trump were competent to run.😊
Making room for more alphabet letters, pronouns, illegal immigrants and fringe minorities, instead of listening to the majority constituents needs, equals losing.

As a Hispanic woman, I am not surprised that many Hispanic men did not vote for a female candidate. There can be cultural factors at play, including traditional views on gender roles. Historically, Latin American countries have had few female presidents (less than 10). Understanding these cultural nuances would have been important.
Hispanic women voted for Kam, but the man did not.

64% of Republicans think that Democrats and Republicans should spend less time talking about transgender issues and more time talking about voters' priority issues like the economy and inflation.
Harris mentioned transgender rights ZERO times during her entire campaign. ZERO Democrat campaign ads defended us.
How DARE you blame this on trans people?
Yeah, all 50 of them.
AOC, Kamala Harris, Warren, Jayapal demand we have to be weird on transgender issues, despite 80% of voters disagreeing with them.
A political party trying to insert itself between parents and their children, that's a sure way to lose an election every time. The dems can pretend in the 11th hour like it never happened but, hey, it's too little too late at that point. Maybe next time they won't mess with peoples' children.

People are overcomplicating this. This was about inflation, eggs and gas cost more now, and the GOP has done a better job of selling on it.
Let's be honest, it was about people focusing on themselves personally rather than what was good for the country as a whole, and at the same time not (or not wanting to) understand that either a) the President has little, if any, direct control over the price of eggs or gas or b) that Trump's policies are going to make those things even worse. Also, as refrenced, misogyny, racism, plus apathy (19 mil or so fewer chose not to vote compared to 2020).
@@karlkessler6017 Interesting. The Presdent can only do EO's unilaterally, but if they involve expending money the implementation still has to be approved by Congress, as did all the student debt relief, which not one single person has been saying. All the was approved by Congressional budget measures as riders on other bills. Again, the veto can be overridden if Congress has enough of a majority. Speaking of inflationary mindset, what's your take on Trump planning to deport millions of foreign workers, how will that affect the economy when they provide so much of the low-wage workforce to produce our food and build our homes and structures? Also, what will his tariffs do? There sure seems to be a huge misunderstanding, by him and many citizens, that tariffs are NOT PAID BY THE COUNTRY THEY'RE PLACED ON. The US companies who IMPORT pay them and then pass that higher price on to CONSUMERS.
Even though Trump is going to do nothing to help them. He can put them in poverty and they will still vote for him.
@@karlkessler6017 So deporting the cheap labor who work for half or less than American workers will demand, even if they suddenly become willing to take those jobs, is going to keep food prices lower? Notwithstanding that much of high prices for food is based on a few monopoly corprations controlling it all and some outside influences like avian flu.
The problem with your argument about moving to American manufacting includes that same question on top of the fact that since we moved manufacturing out because of the cheap foreign labor we don't currently have the infrastructure (factories are gone) and the price of building that back will raise the prices to even higher than what we pay for imports. Similar imported products are sold at discount stores while the same quality products made in America are sold at high end stores at drastically higher prices. Have you been buying American made products over foreign? What's the price difference?
Inflation number 1, then border, and then crime. Trump hit on all those and Kamala ignored the top 3 issues. Seems simple to me.
I'd rather have cheaper eggs than Public Schools, Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, and the ACA. Is that the argument?
Well said! Trumpers are so selfish they chose eggs over Democracy
Exactly!
Cheaper eggs. Also: no brown eggs. Just nice white eggs. That’s what they want.
A lot of it...which pretty much proves how stupid they are.
That's a stupid statement. None of those things are disappearing.
Don't forget to mention Biden replying when asked whether sending oil and natural gas to Europe to supplant Russian oil would cause inflation here, said , Americans dont mind a little inflation. " Look it up. It is on record.
A little inflation?!?
Over 30 years min tipped wage, $2.13 an hour, over 10 years $7.25 an hour.
Look it up.
Also ,tons of Democrat men have left the party because they are tired of taking the blame for what their forefathers did many decades ago. The finger wagging and guilt tripping is toxic.
The problem with embracing populism is that in order for the democrats to actually provide some sort of economic justice they'd need to heavily clamp down on immigration. Massive immigration places downward pressure on working class occupations which is why it was a top #2 issue for voters.
Unfortunately for the democrats this is a very divisive issue without their own cohort. There's a bunch of university grads who love this immigration because it's basically unlimited cheap labour for them so they just echo any economic talking point to prevent it.
Then you have the student protestors who treat any immigration restrictions as "racism".
The dems need to have a reckoning on this subject.
Ohhhh WAIT!!! I forgot: Sen Lankford had proposed an immigration BILL remember??? but donnie told his peers : "KILL IT." in order to have something to campaign on. YEAH keep blaming DEMOCRATS on immigration. Immigration crossings are down on BIDEN's tenure. WAYYYY down than they were on donnie's tenure. REMEMBER???
Dems need to get labor involved here and make it clear that immigration is necessary for building a strong economy but also needs boundaries which is where a joint say so with labor may work.
Immigration is not the problem to our economy. Immigration actually helps the economy. We have to compete with China’s 1.6 billion people when we don’t even have half that number.
How little people care about democracy
Maybe the Democratic Convention couldve just let a Palestinian-American speak on stage?
Who from that group spoke at the RNC?

Who are the 10million people that didn't vote in 2024 that voted for them in 2020. That is the big question. I don't see that trump got that many more votes
Bro's are sheep.
This guy was brilliant!
You see…… we fell for what the right fell for in 2020. We largely listened and watched like minded media (silos) that led us to believe the wind was at Harris’s back while reality blew by. It’s our own fault. The sooner we come to that realization the better.
Not me. I voted for Biden and bailed on Kamala. Her message didn't speak to me and I was out.
So long as "we" means Far Left, Ds will have a problem.
So long as the elected candidate solely addresses what the elites want, the pendulum will vacillate wildly.

Stop over analyzing the result of the election. This guy Martin summed it well at the beginning: the consumer didn’t want the product, just like any company must find the right products for its clients, it’s that simple. I am a Canadian citizen and I have a friend who is born in America and he has the US citizenship of course. He has live in Canada all his 60 year life. He told me he voted for the orange clown. I knew he would do that. How in the world do you think a grown up man, non-college educated, frustrated with many aspects of life would vote for a short, small, black, woke woman? Not a chance! Also, there was a simple question that was asked to Americans. It is do you think the country is going in the right direction? More than 72% of the people said no! I knew immediately that the Democrats were toasted! This said, it is almost @ certainly that the clown in chief will cause so much chaos that if there are elections in 4 years, the GOP will be defeated. However, if the Democrats want to win, they will have to identify the right candidate that the population in general will feel comfortable with.
Agreed. I feel it very likely that the Trump admin will over reach. They have ideologically committed to it, including mass deportation. It will be a horror show. And that will be the chance.
@ I take the right to be condescending towards a majority of people who vote for a criminal, a sexual predator, a fraud, a racist, etc. Please tell me that out of 340 million people in America that the orange face is the best person for the job?
I’m a democrat … what did we get wrong .. EVERYTHING
This isn’t a democrat issue. Trump voters were offered to join a larger tent to voice their issues to a candidate that was there as their servant; instead they chose a leader that’ll want them to be his servants.
Could be a golden age. We shall see, but hoping for the best. And maybe, one can always hope, the Democrats will get their act together.
trump will be an increasingly lame duck in a total shark tank, with vance as the apex predator.
Yes, and Trump is not going to last his term.
What are you talking about about -- Trump isn't about Identity politics?
Her giving 20k to first time home owners didn't help. So many middle class are struggling & they don't want to hear that.

Vice: What Went Wrong With The Harris Campaign:
First Vice: For three years, Vice President Harris neglected her region of the country, the American West.
Second Vice: After becoming the nominee, Vice President Harris waited too long to define herself politically.
Third Vice: Vice President Harris spent more time saying why Donald Trump shouldn't be President than why she should be President.
Fourth Vice: Vice President Harris over prioritized social influencer media at the expense of traditional media.
Fifth Vice: Vice President Harris picked a weak running mate.
Sixth Vice: President Harris relied on too narrow a circle of advisers.
Seventh Vice: What aboutism: The Late Start, Ukraine, Gaza, and Epstein.
Eighth Vice: Racism and misogyny were salient factors for the loss but not decisive factors for the loss.
Ninth Vice: If these vices were so toxic, then why didn’t Vice President Harris, Democratic Congressional Leadership, and the Democratic National Committee address them during the campaign?
Tenth Vice: Vice President Harris failed to address the underlying issues that made Trump’s Presidency possible; Decades Long Neglect of K-12 Education, American Manufacturing, and Corruption.
All good, but I have to add more:
1) She needed to distance herself from Biden, so she wouldn't be attached to his failures, specifically inflation. She didn't clearly state how she would be different. In fact she mostly said she will keep doing things the same.
2) She ran on abortion, lower drug prices, and affordable housing. Sorry, border and crime "Trump" her issues.
And the general anti-incumbency mood around the post-pandemic world (re: inflation, etc) wasn't a major factor? Haven't many incumbent governments fallen over the past few years? It would've been a landslide if a traditional Republican ran.
Yes why do so many people miss this? How many governments around the world in 2019 are still in power (or about to lose?)
Inflation that comes from the greed of corporations-Will Trump put guardrails on them? No. Trump wants tariffs-if you think things are expensive now brace yourself. Do you know Trump gave tax cuts to billionaires? You probably pay more in taxes than Elon Musk and don't give me a trickle down lecture-that is pure b.s. Trickle down has been proven not to work. Another lie billionaires want you to buy.
True
dam how did they fumble this so bad. there was nobody to stop them crossing the goal line they just dropped the ball at the 5 yard line and fell flat on their face
Move the economic platform to the left or lose repeatedly until you do, dems. You lost because the working class stayed home or voted GOP. The rosy economic data is meaningless if you don't feel it.
That’s a testimony of a dumb and ill-informed voter. Trump understands that keeping people dumb benefits him to promote his lies. You want to see a great example of that, see Putin in Russia and how he manipulates education and the news in Russia.
No, social issues to middle and economic to the left - the wealth gap is going to destroy democracy.

The left media will keep up their hatred of Trump and 53% of Americans I’m sure but I will choose to disengage.

Tubulent time? The average working class American actually has pretty good memories of the first Trump term. Therein lies the disconnect with the Dems.
The average working class American has a low IQ. Therein lies the disconnect.
Pandemic spreading, ill people overloading hospitals and dying, economic shutdowns and unemployment spiking to >14% while in the background supply chains faltering, hoarding/shortage of TP (!)... yeah, good memories.
It is culture and identity politics and policies which constantly define “ progress “as being taking from one class and giving it to another class.
Implying that people can’t succeed without the help from the elite.
Clesely it was fixed. Putin and musk come to mind.
You guys made a lot of good points. Here's my take on Reasons Trump Won (higher cost of living being the biggie):
1) Christian nationalists who see Christianity dying and see Trump as a last-ditch effort to gain legislative power
2) identity politics - people vote red no matter what (aka. Republicanity)
3) the flyover states see themselves as “real America” and feel under-represented
4) the electoral college gives the smaller states more seats/power
5) Republicans gerrymandered districts
6) Hollywood (and corporate America) has been taken over by left-wing activist writers and producers pushing DEI and "woke" garbage and people are tired of it. Multiple billion-dollar franchises were ruined due to culture-wars (Disney Star Wars, Marvel, Lord of the Rings, Ghostbusters, Terminator)
7) strong anti-immigration sentiments and xenophobic/racist rhetoric (want stronger border & mass deportation for illegals)
8) conspiracy theorists (the average Republican feels the previous election was "stolen")
9) Christians who view abortion as baby-murder
10) 20% of American investors own Crypto and Trump said he’d give it government backing
11) right-wing media is brutally effective in their messaging
12) lack of leadership and lack of messaging on the Democratic side
13) Elon Musk and Joe Rogan endorsed Trump (helps bring in the male 18-34 vote)
14) anger at the govt shutdown during the pandemic
15) voters wanted CHANGE at all costs, even if it means burning down “the system”
16) cost of living is way up (food, housing, gas) so voters blame the party in charge
17) the bullet that grazed Trump’s ear (Christians will see as a sign from God)
18) the average American hates MSM (mainstream media) ever since Trump called CNN “fake news,” so most Americans get their news from FOX and other right-wing echo chambers, causing political illiteracy.
19) Social media also creates echo chambers (the algorithm feeds you more of what you like)
20) anger at Israel and the Gaza war/genocide. Also, Trump said he'd stop the Ukraine war and the average American is selfish and doesn't want to spend billions of dollars on other countries.
21) Kamala failed to distinguish herself from Joe Biden who is historically unpopular
Some of your assumptions are off. Abortion seems to be a core right accepted in even deeply red states.
You missed one strong point: While I voted for Harris, we should have run a young, charismatic WHITE MALE against THE most dangerous candidate of my 60 years of voting -- felon/rapist Trump!
Why was voter turnout down by 16 million this year? What states lost so many voters?

All the states where Real Page rendered millions of renters homeless, where it rendered them dry broke after taking all their income per month, and then demanding more as if any was left, with credit ruined on utilities and gas cards because group management private equities took all the money and then had people ordered out without anywhere else to go and no chance to get their wallets or birth certificates. Just throwing stuff out on the lawn where other people in the same boat ran up to grab stuff to try to sell, before they could gather it who just got dumped out with their last check sent back. It was about selling and flipping properties for large cash buy outs from one monolithic nesting llc to another of the biggest five or so owning everything they can buy out in the world after shifting subsidized insured and dozed malls, to complexes, to commercial buildings to private houses and properties who didn't know better yet, because they had so far been unaffected by the rent debacle. The people not dead from plain sleeping outside without access to running water or bathrooms anymore, or in jail indefinitely over and over after being criminalized for being asleep on public property, are just trying to live and not have any communication stolen from them as they show up for court dates for existing somewhere outdoors. Most of their previous long time addresses still boarded up unoccupied. the last year or four. Deals might've been flipped, but whatever proposal of new business venture other than flipping amongst billionaires obviously can't be sustained or supported by the people who lost their livelihoods, to that game of anonymous equities corporations all under the few umbrellas. The same people could still be living there regularly paying reasonable rent that gives space in the income for the rest of basic living expenses too, but nope. If they had addresses and could keep IDs again, while they had to sleep, they'd have shown and voted.
@dougn2350 Many stayed home for various reasons including hating both parties. The Dems really kicked progressives in the teeth hanging out with the Cheney’s and believing that the so called Never Trumpers were a real thing.

I agree with you -- we have a hidden gender war and that's how a false caricature of manhood like felon/rapist Trump came to power -- and if we Democrats had run a young, charismatic WHITE MALE as our candidate we would won over would-be dictator Trump.

2024 - The "No Funding for Sanctuary Cities Act" is being introduced by Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, and would amend federal law so that any jurisdiction that blocks federal immigration enforcement would be ineligible for a range of federal law enforcement grants and any other grant administered by the Department of Homeland Security or Department of Justice.
It would also require the DHS secretary to report to Congress how many states and localities are not complying with federal immigration enforcement. It says that any funds that are withdrawn from sanctuary jurisdictions can be diverted to those that are in compliance.
