Yeahhhh, maybe treating voters like that was not a great idea. Also I got the impression if they felt safe about voting before, those ads made them reconsider.

Oh its worse then that.

Just winning would be bad, but with the popular vote that is a mandate.

Having a clear mandate would be very bad but the house/senate would both need to go red to be able to execute the sort of mandate promised. You know that thing that also happened.

45% of the Latino population in the us that voted for Harris are deported. Or they just somehow sink Puerto Rico.

Yeah, and people seem to forget a key question these days: "what middle class?"

And many of those people who voted to "elect Hitler again" were woman. I think it is wild that people keep minimizing the role of the single largest voting demographic into victims.

In that two party system?

Yes, thank you for putting it in plain language. People are not in a good place all over the world and telling people the economy (markets and stats people no longer have faith in) is great has the opposite effect then what the Dems intended.

This mess stems from a combo of a two party system (you know that thing the US founders warned you about) and a fundamental failure (real or perceived) of society's ability to reward people fairly. Now you don't have a middle class to pander to, you just have levels of poor and a few ultra wealthy (both demographics that tend to vote more right then left).

The real telling stat here is women voters. At what point would a woman vote contrary to her own body autonomy, safety and general rights? Like anyone else, when she is poor, hungry and angry.

The poison of the "big tent". Move a little over to let people in enough and you are no longer representing anyone in a desperate attempt to represent everyone.

Well I was posting it more to the point of the I am sure wave of people saying "Well I voted for the Dems" is fast approaching.

Yeah.... that was.... an odd choice they keep making.

Yeap, and yet we are not building anything that is not large semi or detached homes. Here there is no subsidies (current or planed) for building apartments we desperately need and instead our providential government blames municipalities for "red tape" causing issues with builders. You can talk to builders, they don't want to manage buildings and they build what makes them money, its not rocket science.
