TALKING HEADS
WINNER: CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD
That Comedy Central show may not have worked out, but The Breakfast Club co-host truly spoke truth to power this election season, repeatedly. From warning Americans against what could happen after Election Day, Joe Biden's electoral and cultural shortcomings and the burning desire out there in a divided nation for less jargon and more straight talk, he was way ahead of the curve. In piercing on-air interviews with Kamala Harris and RNC boss Lara Trump, Charlamagne owned the curve. Calling out CNN's "bullsh*t"-spouting Anderson Cooper and the mainstream media in late October for not putting a glaring spotlight on the real "fascist" dangers of a Trump return to the White House, the CAA-repped Get Honest or Die Lying: Why Small Talk Sucks author had one of the defining media moments of the modern era.
LOSER: JOE ROGAN
Sometimes supporting Bernie Sanders, sometimes admitting he isn't someone you should go to for vaccine advice after dispensing vaccine advice, Rogan over the past decade has made a successful, untraditional media career off red-meat men, literally and figuratively. The pratfall-filled 2024 election was tailor-made for the former Fear Factor host, bigger than ever off the Austin-based The Joe Rogan Experience podcast and his longtime UFC announcer gig. Yet somehow Rogan turned triumphant into one bad joke with a sycophantic and meandering three-hour fact-challenged sit-down with Trump. The interview got tens of millions of downloads, and Rogan formally endorsed the Republican he once called a "man baby" late Monday night. Maybe the fix was in, and that's why Rogan petulantly shunned an interview with Harris last week. The VP's team wanted Rogan to meet her on the campaign trail to record the podcast and was offering an hour. Rogan wanted to do it in Austin and get three hours. In the end, he got nothing. I mean, dude, why didn't you take the win? Maybe you never wanted to. Might be time to lay off the bison for a bit; it's gone to your brain.
SURROGATES
WINNER: LIZ CHENEY
Let's not fool ourselves: The daughter of Darth Vader himself, former VP Peepee Cheney, may be standing with the current VP for the rule of law and facing down the insurrection-rousing Trump, but Liz Cheney can't be unaware of the historic role she occupies. Put out in the wilderness by Trump seeking revenge for her participation on the January 6 congressional committee, the former Wyoming representative has gone from being one of the Democrats' sworn foes to the party's closer surrogate and VP nominee in all but name. If Harris wins, Cheney will be the real comeback kid.
LOSER: TONY HINCHCLIFFE
If Trump loses the election, which he will claim early that he won, it will be in no small part due to the trashing of Puerto Rico and insulting of Latinx by the roast comedian at the October 27 mega-MAGA rally at Madison Square Garden. The GOP tried to reset by focusing on Biden's gaffe playing on Hinchcliffe's "garbage" slam of the American territory, but the damage was done. Put it this way: When Megyn Kelly rips your "bro-tastic" event and its opening act, you're in trouble.
TV
WINNER: MSNBC
In a divided America it seems everyone has their echo chamber of choice. For those on the right, that's still Fox News. For those on the nearly everything else, it's MSNBC. Sure, CNN had almost 52 million watch its much-simulcast June 27 debate between Trump and a befuddled Biden, which was the beginning of the end for the incumbent's re-election bid, but the cable newsers are all down from 2020 in this fractured environment. Fox remains No. 1, but the Comcast-owned MSNBC is a solid No. 2, with CNN in third place for most of the year. It's never good to undermine the power and draw of Rachel Maddow in an election year, but the truth is in the math: According to Nielsen, MSNBC has topped CNN repeatedly on core events this election, like among the 25-54 demo during the DNC, and, for the first time ever, in a presidential debate when Harris and Trump met September 10. Compared with 2016, MSNBC is up 40% among viewers on average, while CNN is down about 33%.
LOSER: BROADCAST NETWORKS
The reach of the news divisions of ABC, NBC and CBS is way, way down and prestige last meant something in the Reagan Era. All of which means, for the most part, the broadcast networks were side players in the drama of this year's election. Yes, ABC saw massive viewership numbers out of its multi-outlet simulcasted September 10 debate between the VP and the former POTUS. Yet, none of that was seen on ABC by the millions who subscribe to DirecTV as Disney was in a contract dispute with the satellite provider at the time. CBS has gotten more attention for Trump ranting about revoking its license over edits made to a 60 Minutes interview with Harris than anything in that interview or anything else the network has done this election. Somewhere in the heavens, Walter Cronkite is wiping away a tear.
BILLIONARIES
WINNER: MARK CUBAN
The eminently unlikable former Dallas Mavericks owner proved a true shark in the 2024 election. Putting on some glasses and bringing down the volume a bit, Cuban reinvented himself as a self-deprecating and stats-sharp surrogate for Harris. Got to give the man his due.
LOSER: ELON MUSK
Twitter is now worth about 80% less that when the government-subsidized Space X chief bought it for $44 billion in late 2022, and the onetime global town hall is now foolishly called X. Still, dumb names aside, the world's richest man has a right to play with his plaything even if Twitter has turned into a disinformation dung heap. He owns it, he can break it. However, joking about someone taking a shot at Harris with Tucker Carlson (another 2024 loser, BTW), literally buying off voters with $1 million checks and ranting about illegal immigration while avoiding some hard facts about his own entry into the country, the South African-born Musk did neither himself nor Trump any favors. Not so smart to be bouncing up and down for Trump at rallies like a 6-year-old who broke into the pantry and got his hands on the entire box of sugar-packed Lucky Charms and donating nearly $200 million to a Trump Super PAC, while ignoring the ex-POTUS' dismissive attitude to allies once they outlive their usefulness. Even with all that, the lack of a real response from the billionaire to reports that the security-clearance-privileged Musk has been chatting regularly with Vladimir Putin separated the men from the boys and sealed his fate, regardless of who wins.
PLATFORMS
We have a tie.
WINNER: TIKTOK
The Biden administration and half the power players in D.C. want to shut down the social media platform owned by Chinese internet company ByteDance for national security reasons. Joe Biden, the VP and everyone else in D.C. who wants to be a player know that TikTok is also one of the top information sources for Americans under 30. The realpolitik is TikTok is bigger than the U.S. government to many voters, and that's why if you can't beat 'em, join 'em – which is what Biden, Harris, Trump and almost everyone else have done.
WINNER: PODCASTS
Trump says his teenage son Barron has been advising him on podcasts to reach traditionally non-voting audiences. If true, Barron is looking pretty smart in both campaigns. From the laughing and mocking hosts of Flagrant, to Bussin with the Boys' ex-NFL players Will Compton and Taylor Lewan, to the oddly touching back and forth with Theo Von and of course Rogan, Trump took the lead and found welcoming safe places that had a much more direct and unmanicured route to voters than 60 Minutes or another debate. As proven by the VP's appearances on Call Her Daddy with Alex Cooper and Club Shay Shay with Shannon Sharpe, not to mention the radio perches of Howard Stern and the Breakfast Club, the power of podcasts are something on which both candidates agree this election.
LOSERS: LATE-NIGHT
Jon Stewart came back to work the Monday shift on the Daily Show after host-in-waiting Hasan Minhaj was unfairly given the media equivalent of wedgie by the New Yorker, but who really cares? Certainly not Harris or Trump, as neither of them showed up on the Comedy Central show. Sure, the VP was with Stephen Colbert on October 8 and on SNL this past weekend, but otherwise late-night was pretty much a no-upside risk for the tightly scripted Harris in a whirlwind campaign. As for Trump, fuhgeddaboudit – been there, done that. Can't take the jokes.
MVP
WINNER: BEYONCÉ
Taylor Swift delivered her endorsement of the VP as the September 10 debate with Trump ended, but it was Queen Bey who has proved essential to the Harris campaign. Beyoncé's 2016 tune "Freedom" is the VP's walk-on music at those well attended rallies. The 32-time Grammy winner supposedly donated $4 million to Harris' campaign in its first days this summer. Beyoncé never showed up at the DNC despite those absurd whispers she would be there on the closing night in Chicago. Saving the best almost for last, the "Texas Hold 'Em" singer showed up in her hometown of Houston on October 26 with her ex-Destiny's Child bandmate Kelly Rowland to introduce the VP. Unlike Barack Obama's second inauguration, Beyoncé didn't sing at the rally co-starring Willie Nelson, but her words of a "new song" for America to sing was music to the Harris campaign.
LOSER: JEFF BEZOS
We don't know how much Amazon founder Jeff Bezos had to do with Prime Video's upcoming live Brian Williams-hosted Election Night coverage. Thanks to his own staff and his own words, we do know that Bezos put the kibosh on the Washington Post's endorsement of Kamala Harris. The LA Times' owner Patrick Soon-Shiong pulled a similar jack move last month too. Billionaires will be billionaires, but fact is Bezos has much further and deeper-reaching tentacles than Soon-Shiong, so his decision has greater implications. Which is why Bezos tried to distance himself from the meeting between Trump and executives in his space-exploration company Blue Origin on the very day the no-endorsement was made public. To use WaPo's Trump Era mantra against itself: We all know it looks like democracy could die when you bend the knee. That's a stain that won't wash away from this would-be American oligarch no matter who wins.

Inevitably she's going to fade out of relevancy like Hillary and the other almost-presidents. What are we to do? Let her hole dry up and die, or fill it with something else? I need answers.

Forget abortion rights. Forget democracy itself. White women collectively made it clear what the top issue has been all along: White privilege.
For the third straight election, white women, the biggest share of the nation's electorate by gender and race, voted for Donald Trump. For the second time out of the last three elections, they voted against a woman for president of the United States. By bringing Trump back to the White House, they betrayed their comfort with a race-baiting misogynist who should be in prison as a convicted felon instead of sitting in the Oval Office.
In the CNN exit poll, 52 percent of White women, the same as in Trump's victory in 2016 and no serious change from the 55 percent in 2020. However, 98 percent of Black women voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
There was no movement in battleground states that President Biden took from Trump in 2020, and Trump clawed back. In Pennsylvania, white women gave Trump 51 percent over their votes, comparable to the 52 percent of 2020. In Wisconsin, white women gave Harris 53 percent of their votes, barely budging from the 52 percent of 2020.
In Georgia, white women's support for Trump increased from 67 percent to 69 percent, approaching the 74 percent Trump support by white men. In Arizona, white women were frozen at the same 52 percent support for Trump of 2020.
To be sure, exit polls are a rough first draft of the electorate. And there were other subplots, such as a big Latinx shift toward Trump despite the castigations of Mexicans and Puerto Ricans. Other subplots did not pan out. Despite the talk that many Black men might desert a Black woman candidate, 20 percent of Black men voted for Trump, little different than the 19 percent of 2020.
In the end, this election was not the nailbiter of 2020 because Trump maintained an iron grip on white women without a college degree, and only suffered minor erosion among college-educated white women. Trump won 60 percent of women without a degree in Pennsylvania.
White women simply deserted their Black sisters (who gave 92 percent of their vote to Harris), voting for the curmudgeon who boasted of grabbing women's genitalia, uttered fecal references about Black nations and Harris, and packed the Supreme Court with judges who overturned a woman's right to an abortion. White women voted for a man who is sure to cut government services that benefit everyone. Having been the biggest beneficiaries of affirmative action, which the Trump courts haves effectively killed, white women collectively have cemented themselves as the front-line soldiers in destroying it for everyone else.
The only possible conclusion is that many white women remain hypnotized by Trump's promise to "take America back" to a time where white was right. Several studies show that the more racial resentment a voter holds, the more likely they were to vote for Trump. Trump rode that resentment all the way back to the White House, with white women as his caddy.

In an interview on Thursday with The New York Times, Ms. Pelosi said what was widely reported around the time Mr. Biden dropped out: that she believed it was implicitly understood that his exit would be followed by an internal party competition for a new nominee, instead of an anointment of Vice President Kamala Harris.

First, a huge thank you to VP Harris and Gov. Walz and all the team who worked so hard, only to be devastated by the results across the whole country. You gave your hearts to this, and it wasn't enough for half of the voters — or for those who stayed home. The rest of us will carry on and do our best, individually and as a community. But make no mistake — it is going to be much harder.
Perhaps I'm being unduly alarmist. But this country has just elected a fascist leadership, with a Senate and very likely House to implement all their worst ideas, and a Supreme Court that has already shown it will approve anything they put forth. Their plans include hollowing out the civil service and replacing all the institutional guardrails at the federal level. This time, he will enter office with a cadre of loyalists prepared to implement his every wish, and more – they have their own agenda. Should he falter, he brings a vice president who is young, energetic, and apparently even more committed to their autocratic and white Christian nationalist vision.
Half the voters support all of this, and half or so of the states already have autocratic governments that are already implementing their policies, to the extent they have not been blocked at the national level – protection that will disappear January 20. Voter suppression will target the rest of the voters – us – and the states that have held out against their agenda.
This time, we have no "America" across the ocean to serve as a beacon of democracy and a refuge from the worst. This time, the autocrats will have control over a massive system to monitor dissent – no electronic communications will be safe, and the post office already tracks every piece of mail. In a larger country, organizing resistance or civil dissent is going to be a lot harder.
California, Colorado, New York, and a few other states will have some ability to protect their people, but you can expect that to be targeted as well. Sure, some of us as elderly white people are not going to be the ones they come after first. But we will see a lot of people hurt, and very soon.
Please tell me I'm not catastrophizing. Please tell me I will wake up tomorrow and this nightmare will be over instead of just starting.
