    Yeah I gathered that pretty quickly. No adult says "cuz" and his other abbreviations. Nothing he says adds up and he loses his cool any time somebody disagrees with him. My teenage daughter has more control of her emotions than him.

    She was so awful. Talked to her voter base like they were in the 2nd grade.

    "AI stands for artificial intelligence"

    Thanks Kamala. We all watched the Matrix too.

    Venture capital brah memorized some key terminology. Dude knows what "semiconductor" is. Jesus Christ he's only a couple steps removed from being able to design his own microprocessor homebrew style. Man we finally got smart people in the White House.

    @Space Ghost kidna showing how easy it is for venture capital tech bros to convince the general public of high intellect by memorizing simple terminology.

    A actual genius will tell you that Harris and Vance gave essentially the same level of detailed analysis of the state of AI. Nothing he said informs people. OMG we use semiconductors to make microprocessors and code algorithms?

    Do you ever leave the internet? No way you can possibly hold down a job. Harris is a clown. Plain and simple. Nobody respects her and that's why she lost

    This was reported shortly after the election.

    I believe it was Ezra Klein that discussed it and essentially said that Democratic leaders that believe they lost because of turnout are mistaken, because one of the areas that Trump gained support from was demographics that had lower voter turnout usually.

    I mean it is pretty simple - Trump ran as and won as a populist, and as someone that was not afraid to engage with the media, including nontraditional media. In comparison, Biden and even Harris seldom made public appearances and was very careful in how they engaged with the media and that backfired. Couple that with an administration that seemed to be more concerned with the LGBTQ+ community and the housing of Venezuelans that blue collar Americans - and it was a recipe for disaster.

    I'm more concerned about what went wrong during the Republican primaries.

    Trump won as a populist but he didn't promise anyone free stuff. He didn't really run on expanding government programs and service.

    It's not like he said "Free college" "eliminate student loans" "free healthcare" "free childcare" etc etc.

    Which I find interesting.

    I think the Democrats lost because:

    1. Inflation/Cost of living - I think this is was the biggest issue by a large margin. I think any encumbent who sees an explosion in CoL/inflation is cooked.

    2. Democrats are the party of scolding - Liberal energy is "I am the purest" and if you hold even a single policy position to the right of me on any issue you're an evil, bigot, Nazi, racist and deserve to die. This lead to huge problems especially concerning things like government funded trans healthcare and trans sports. The country is overwhelmingly in one place on it and the Democrats cannot bring themselves to agree [for fear of being labeled as bigots by a fringe] and instead of just agreeing with the broad consensus just die on that hill and/or pathetically attempt to deflect the question. Which, you know, doesn't work.

    3. Biden was a walking corpse and Kamala had no rizz at all. They had little-to-no authenticity or personality. They were risk averse. They spoke like robots, if they spoke at all.

    What went wrong is that the DOJ should have jailed Trump, ending this bullshit.

    He will be easy pickings for right wing commentators.

    Unless his policy proposals actually work... but... you know.. that's unlikely.

    Democrats really don't know how to communicate how their policies help blue collar and rural Americans. They spend too much time talking about small sub groups of people. I'm all for trans rights but that represents like .001 percent of the population The last Democrat that could connect with non college educated white people was Clinton.


    What I don't get is women who vote for Trump. What is in it for them at all?
