You write, “So his 2024 win is not a referendum on inflation.” Just to clarify… given Trump’s well-documented (by you) absolute gibberish on the economy, and the GOP’s regularly wrecking the economy, why does anyone think “inflation” influenced anything in the 2024 election?

Why did a lot of the Biden voters stay home???? Ohh that’s right, because Biden was not on the ticket!!! In fact some voters came out to vote for Biden on election day. Thank you main stream media for giving un Trump 2.0. The Fix was in on this election before the first vote was ever cast

To be fair, just about everyone stayed home in 2020 because of COVID. Mail in voting was easier and available. Shows you what making it easy to vote would do for turnout and the outcome in my opinion

I am convinced part of this is a lack of Dems understanding the unique role pandemic played in 2020 record turnout. It was easier to vote early and heavily promoted. We probably needed higher early vote and mail ballot participation, but assumed a return to day of vote would even things out.

some who stayed home AND a whole bunch who *didn't stay home* but voted again for trump, because they are yet to be ashamed or intelligent enough to understand how they are being conned, or giving in to their worst prejudices.

"It’s a lot easier to demoralize people than to motivate them. And the best way to win is to demoralize your opponent’s supporters." This is the article where I was shown the horrible truth that people mostly don't change their minds about politics. www.buzzfeednews.com/article/hnsg...

Nah huh....maggats say they they have a mandate to destroy the economy and kill anyone who tries to stop them I say bring it on...we survived reagan,nixon,2bushes and a drumpf..we shall prevail in fairness,equality,rule of law and humanity!

Biden voters that didn't understand that this election was not about policy, but about whether we retained our democracy; disaffected Palestine supporters; Republican / Independent voters who were loathe to vote for a Democrat, all contributed to Trump's win.

My opinion…a woman will not win here..I know my state..Josh Shapiro would have won PA..Both republicans and Democrats like him. I didn’t want to say it b/c I loved Tim Walz attitude/personality .There are men and women that will not vote for a woman ..

Sadly, I totally agree. A female friend who chose not to vote, told me she didn't think a woman could stand up to foreign leaders or be effective as POTUS. This wasn't from a simpering, bullied wife; my friend is a widowed, independent person who has always stood up for herself. 😞
