The past two nights I've been stuck around liberals that have stared into the abyss for too long. They claim that scared idiots like conservatives like simple answers. Yet the simple answer they cling to for their election lose is that America is racist and sexist.
Never mind the fact that compared to Biden, Kamala got 6 million less votes. Trump only went up by 3 million votes compared to his last presidential rub. The fact of the matter is no one liked her. She has a history of being unpopular.
They say that Trump is holding onto power so he doesn't go to prison. That makes zero sense because he could give himself a blanket pardon just like Biden gave his family.
I really wish these people weren't in so many of my social circles. I need to find ways to meet more regular people

Kamala was cringe. Hilary was cringe.
The fact they were women might have contributed to the cringe. The "first woman president" and "first BLACK woman president" making history increased stakes were cringe.
The cringe candidate loses. Always has.

Whether it was Kamala, Biden, or Newsome, it really didn't matter.
In the seconds following the Trump assassination attempt, the election was already over. No one was beating him.
I think Biden and Kamala knew it, and that's why Kamala took over. They knew they would get trounced, but they could at least achieve "First Black Female Presidential Nominee". That's why Kamala went around talking about coconuts, and "what can be, unburdened by what has been". She was saying, "Look, a black woman can be on the ticket. We are gonna lose, but don't have a crisis, America is still a progressive country."

both the coconut tree anecdote and the "unburdened by what has been" quote were solid messages. people have lost sight of how good they have it today, what it took to get here, and the fact that all of that is now behind us.
she ruined them by regurgitating them in a variety contexts and tones, when it should have just been a one time thing.

I found it heartbreaking. A shell, like they had died before their body did. If you're lucky you get some time where they remember the past and you get to be their dead sister, husband, child. They don't really make new memories, they can't, so everything including who is in front of them gets slotted into what they do remember.
Do you know about the bus stops? A number of care homes for the elderly found they calmed patients down to have a fake bus stop outside. Dementia patients get panicked easily, you see. There's someone they can't find or something they need to be doing. But they found if they sat at a bus stop, they would calm down and wait there for the bus that never comes. Their declining brain found a familiar groove, and didn't notice that it was a perfect circle that didn't go anywhere.
It's a terrifying illness. Trapped in your own decaying mental and physical facilities. Imagine watching your own self breaking away, like a cliff being steadily destroyed by the waves.

The Harris campaign was already on the wrong foot after that disastrous June debate; people were already distrustful of how Harris subverted the primary entirely. THEN the assassination attempt happened and it was 100% locked for Trump at that point.

I don't even think it was Kamala, I think the Democratic Party has just insulated itself from real opposition for so long that it got no sincere feedback from the people until they were off in lala land.
Kamala was just a symptom of that fact, and she embodied the fake, vague, insincere anti-normal personality of the DNC as a whole.

No doubt that she was qualified for the job.
The issue is that the DNC would not run a primary and that Biden went back on his word on being a one term president. I think she would have been eliminated in the primaries again otherwise.
Can you name a single person that could be considered a true head of the dems right now?
Rightoids just lumped themselves behind Trump. As r-slurred as it is at the end of the day they have a strong leader, albeit unwise, to look to.

Libtard is as normal as it gets. 99% of any politically active conservatives are rictus-grinning nazis. Anyone apolitical is 90% guaranteed to just be neurodivergent and impersonal. Those last 10% are too busy grilling to give you the time of day.
It's far simplest to just placate the libtards by nodding your head, and hope they don't ever ever ever become leftists or commies: at which point, so is lost and you can just walk away and forget them.

My lib relatives try my patience every time I see them. I can tolerate their ideas about racism, sexism and co but they're so fricking condescending.
I hear the media-literacy and voting-against-their-own-interests memes every time they come over, it drives me nuts.
Jump in the discussion.

It's irritating as frick when you slightly disagree and the loud condescending attitude comes out. I had a friend of a friend say that republicans are making sure you can never vote for anyone else because republicans are against ranked choice voting. I tried 3 times to say that democrats haven't had a problem getting elected without ranked choice. She kept getting more shrill and loud until she finally let me get three words in. Once she heard my point she was quiet for a second and loudly went on about something else.
If they want to talk about any cultural force that won the election I would say anger against the liberal attitude was stronger than racism or sexism in this election. Especially when democrats think that calling republicans 'weird' was a win. It made dems feel good but it reminded everyone else that democrats support drag queen story hour
