Trump’s WARS Return! Dems Have To NOT Get Dragged In! (w/ Ron Brownstein) | Bulwark Podcast

[@CarrieLovesLife.]

As a white woman, I am furious at my fellow women. It’s one thing for men to not care about women’s rights, it’s quite another when women vote against the well being of women. Also…. Please please let’s not diminish that racism and misogyny played in this election. We must NOT keep ignoring this. I think this accounts for MANY of the non-voters… they didn’t want to vote for Trump, but also did not want to vote for a (black) woman. It’s just not going to show up in the polls. Men (and women) are not going to say this out loud in polls, etc.

I'm pretty sure it all comes down to social media, between the Russians, Chinese, Musk, and now Facebook along with Fox it's a wonder people get any true information. We needed to take what happened in 2016 much more seriously and not allowed MAGA to normalize their narrative full of complete falsehoods. They have killed the first amendment, I have always understood people's right to burn flags, dress up and 'reenact' certain sides, etc etc. This is different though, free speech doesn't mean someone should be allowed to convince people that a cabal is using space lasers to burn forrests with the help of their minions in government who spread dead leaves around as kindling. MAGA is a disgrace and we've allowed them to define their own reality.

[@georgemetz7277]

I think history will be kind to Biden, he has and is accomplishing a lot. Most effects won't be felt for awhile though and we have short memories. But getting real, he should never had run a second time to begin with. I can't be the only one to think of him as an interim president, between Trump that HAD to go, and the next logical democrat. I don't know who that would have been, probably not Kamala. The electorate just isn't that deep. After the debate Biden had no chance and he was on shaky ground to begin with and people believe Trump will make things better for them. No, I can't explain it but con artists do in fact get away with shit.

[@kaylew1124]

I feel the same the message was strong and clear.... No one ever considered that this time the election was really stollen! Why in hell would trump tell his followers that they did not have to vote? That he had all the votes he needed! Why did Elon Musk tell attorney general Ken Paxton that He was the reason that trump won all the battleground states he said to him I did that! And no one question that? America did not vote for this man I assure you! Our own Data Scientist have been writing letters and blowing horns to let everyone know that! the data shows that the election was indeed altered and had many anomalies and all we have to do is look at the grafts that are public records and you will see it! It's called the Russian tail! Trump and Elon did the unthinkable and we ignored it!

If you were to rank every single US citizen by their suitability for the Office, I don't know who would be number 1. But I do know who's name would be dead last.

In other words, selfishness.

I guess we can't ignore what I saw on the weekend before the Election - a constant barrage of Lying Ads during my football games - I was so damn angry but the billionaires were exercising their POWER.

I'm 80, this is something we've never seen before! However, our forefathers, grandparents, and parents saw things they could never have imagined. My dad fought in World war2, they relied on their leaders to get them through. We, are going to figure this out, just as George Washington, Abraham Lincolv, Roosevelt, John Kennedy to name a few. We just need to resist, stay focused, just like our forefathers did and hopefully great leaders will rise!

4:57 Ok, but how much of that dissatisfaction was based on complete 🐎💩? That's my problem with it; most of what people had a problem with wasn't real.

Evangelical woman will not vote for a woman!

[@lpododdsowedeguzman2995]

Here's my thought men and some women could not vote for a woman and she being black as well.

If the next Democratic candidate does not come out full throated for universal healthcare he's toast

[@brigiddezarn6796]

College-educated young ppl who didn’t vote- hated Biden/Harris’ Israel/Gaza policy. Young voters in general- troubled by unreasonable cost of housing.

[@cherylpais6462]

College isn't what it used to be.

I need you to explain why 92% of Black women and 80% of Black men who voted for Kamala Harris were motivated to do so.

[@DonaldWest-qk1dt]

never underestimate stupid people in large groups

[@egx161]

I’m so tired of these sclerotic politicians in congress. We need fresh new ideas. Bold young progressive vision and we must end this era of MAGA. The racist base and the oligarchs will doom our country.

[@kevinkeith4578]

People were confident Kamala had it in the bag and stupidly stayed home

[@robynnordstrom7799]

Let’s hope they get a chance to correct their mistake in four years.

[@lanafletcher6265]

Sad stat!!

[@VickieJohnson-il8qi]

Don’t forget the people who remembered Trumps name on those checks at the beginning of pandemic? Trump gave us money🙄

[@pohkeee]

☝🏼…yes he understands the naive emotional profile of his voters…simple, straight forward, no economic or legislative savvy involved.

Only women would vote against their own interest. Depressing

[@rosiemccrindle2271]

So it was only women who voted for plump?. 😂😂😂

In the past the President would have had a fireside chat that was on national TV, which had very few competitors at the time. The President could have explained the economy in a way that people understood. Today we have such fragmented and politicized media that would have diluted and marginalized any similar messages we could have communicated today.

[@MultiSkysthelimit]

I blame the legacy news that over critiqued Biden Harris's while giving Trump a pat on the back.Thats how she lost,all that batty news coverage'.

[@donelson52]

Was MAGA-Republican voter suppression, especially in Red states, a real effect? What scientific studies have been done?

[@carlenefessler4984]

Ron said that, historically ,when voters are unhappy, they vote for the other party. What if the other party knew this and played on it. There is no question that the 118 th House of Representatives did as little as possible. And if price gouging is the cause of the higher prices, isn't it true that most big corporations lean toward Republican. Could this all have been planned to achieve the outcome of November 5, 2024?

[@rokess5053]

All this analysis without mentioning how unpopular Harris was before the campaigning even started.
