US Presidential Election, Nov 5th 2024

You mean those Americans in 2020 that voted for Biden but in 2024 didn't show up for Harris? Those Americans?

Sure. They've seen both in charge and they prefer the fascist.

The idea that if Harris were only better at press conferences doesn't pass muster.

Police chief saying they aren't expecting any protests in DC tonight. However I'm seeing shop owners boarding up their shops just in case.

Very strange feeling here.

If Biden had stuck to his promise. A new cadre of Dems would have appeared to run. He screwed the Democrats of that.

Possibly

She wasn't fine. She was a robotic, uncomfortable candidate. Who spendy her whole campaign running away from positions she held a mere 4 years ago. She was bad all around.

Like I said, agree to disagree. But as for running away from positions, she had voted for the same positions during the previous 4 years. Meanwhile her opponent changed positions on abortion three times in a day. Judged by different standards.

But for the record, I said she was a terrible candidate to run against a headwind. Trump wasn't running against a headwind. I know the Main Stream Media painted a different picture than reality. But hey, we are here now.

She called him a racist, fascist threat to democracy. If you think that wasn't worse or on par. I guess we'll have to beg to differ.

No! She called him a threat to democracy many times. I guess you must have missed it.

saying that you think someone is a threat to democracy isn't calling names. It's saying that you believe someone is a threat to democracy.

Almost a million people died on the orange cunts last watch because he insisted on being a dick , watch out

Right, so Harris lost because 15 million 2020 Democrats decided to sit on the sidelines and allow a "fascist" to be elected.

Avoid the question. Good one. So where did all the 2020 Democrat voters go? They just decided to sit home and allow a "fascist" to be elected over a poor noble woman of colour?

I wasn’t trying to answer your question, I was just pointing out the allegation of mass voter fraud not being needed.

Thing is you cant go on about the other side constantly if you are already in power
At some point you have to back your record, offer things you could do different and then a show a different way forward
She just offered more of the same

Rubbish. You simply haven't bothered to check her policies, or don't care if what you're saying is true.

Economy for sure. Biden choosing to run, causing Democrats not run a real primary didn't help. Immigration was a disaster.


But above all Kamala Harris was simply a terrible candidate to run against a headwind. She is as bad of a public speaker as I've ever seen on the national stage

They both called each other names. That was a wash. She simply couldn't connect with people who weren't already anti-Trump.

Last sentence spot on.

Rubbish. You simply haven't bothered to check her policies, or don't care if what you're saying is true.

i listened to her interviews, but she didnt say anything.

To be honest i think she was an awful candidate who appealed to no one who wasn't already a democrat voter
i think any competent democrat politician should have wiped the floor with Trump

If you blame the voters, then you really are missing the issue

 

[Ifwecouldjust.......]

Why didn't all the Democrats that voted for Biden vote for Harris? Are they racist or sexist? Or perhaps they never really existed in 2020.

Why didn't all the Republicans that voted for Trump in 2024 vote for him in 2020 ? Perhaps they don't really exist now?
