2024 voters be like..
(lemmy.world)
"a women president" I think the pendulum has swung back too far. You can use "female" if it's in adjective form, that is in fact normal.
Trump is femme/queer coded as hell.
The jazz hands, the makeup, the camp interior design.
The beautiful younger wife whose main purpose is to symbolise traditional heteronormative stability, but clearly is not romantically involved.
and yeah the ballroom
He posted this on Truth Social, then deleted it.
His weird dance where he's wanking two guys at once...
Also, out of all the timeless classics from that period, he specifically latched on to Village people's YMCA as his favorite song, but only because he likes the music, guys...
The talking about all the strong, beautiful men around him, the obsession with watching mostly naked muscular men wrestling with each other...
Harris said she wouldn't be any different than Biden, meaning she doesn't have a spine and would have let Bibi Netanyahu and the Israeli government dog walk her with little pushback.
Genocide is an unforgivable crime that must be rejected by everyone at every station in society.
Fuck Joe Biden for not dropping from the race earlier and withholding primaries from us. Genocide Joe will earn his keep forever with that decision.
Her support for genocide was certainly a glaring weakness, but what really lost her the election is that the majority of left-leaning voters are sick of status quo corporate policies. Democrats keep trying to court the Sunday brunch crowd, when the economy is so bad that the brunch crowd doesn't even exist anymore. The Dems have alienated the left-wing so completely that they ran fucking Liz Cheney as VP. But even that strategy was stupid because why would right wingers vote for Republicans-lite?
The veil is starting to fall on US politics, and the people starting to realize that American Democracy is a dream, not reality.
Democrats spent the 2024 Presidential Election courting Republicans, even far right Democrats, instead of banking on a populist leftist platform of people over profits.
The ultimate manifestation of the base rejecting that ethos was in the Palestinian freedom movement.

Trump was right. I voted for Harris and the economy is much worse now. I am sorry.
This.
I know Harris and Clinton are controversial but they were two of the most qualified candidates to ever run, who happen to be women. Yet, somehow, the biggest moron on the planet defeated both of them. That moron only lost to the oldest man to ever take office, up to that point.
Careful, there's a lot of morons on lemmy that would rather live in a fascist state than vote for a candidate that isn't 100% perfect.
Entirely too many people let perfect be the enemy of better

Qualified how exactly?
Harris couldn't make it out of Iowa when she tried a legitimate run and Clinton had to rig primaries to win against Bernie. (A practice Dems were later forced to defend in a public court proceeding.)

But but but both sides! Kamala would have been worse than Trump in every way shape possible. Because… both sides!
/s I really hate people who argue both sides are the same. It just reduces voter turnout and republicans win when less people vote.

Imagine if Biden and the DNC had the brains to back a capable woman with the actual skills to do the job instead of a puppeted genocidal failure who stood for nothing, can barely manage to stumble through a speech, and couldnt lead her way out of a paper bag. There are lots of capable women who can do that job. The DNC screwed everyone with that and we lost to one of the lamest republicans anyone can imagine. The party is ready to implode at this point due to incompetence , spinelessness and bribery by genociders.
She was still a better pick than the turd in office right now. But Americans are too brainrotted to accept and correct their own failures.
you keep trying this "lesser of two evils" "lets court the middle" "strategy" and it never works. When will you learn this. Your strategy wont win future election, its practically designed to lose. The last time you tried you eroded the base in every measurable demographic except 1, did you even notice that? If you lose in every demographic with a strategy, how will you ever have the votes to win any election? By making up votes from independents and converting republicans, Schumer famously said. But that keeps being tried and it keeps failing, time after time. Its factually proven to be bad strategy and you have to learn to win. Whats it going to take for you to choose not to lose?

It's by design. It's not that they can't find capable candidates in a population of 340+ million people, that would be rediculously incompetent. Their candidates are just exactly what the DNC wants: status quo. The DNC is nothing but conservative at this point, and they'd rather lose, than risk a socialist candidate who will break the status quo.
Depends.
Is this woman overtly bigoted and does she constantly demonize half of U.S. citizens?
If so, then she'd have staunch support of all conservative voters regardless of what else she does.
Nope. Nobody voted for Nikki Haley in the primaries.
Oh yes.
Love it when people pretend that Democrats support something because they offered a sound byte. 🤟😎
What mattered was that they didn't do anything meaningful to solve the problem.
