Can you show me where I'm wrong, or did you just not know about any of this?


Biden took a host of actions on Day 1 to increase illegal immigration. That "border bill" would have rewarded illegals with a legal status and was in no way a solution. Biden could have revoked his Day 1 acts at any time and chose not to. Everyone knows Dems want unlimited illegal immigration into the US. They present no limiting principle and punish no one for violating this nation's laws and sovereignty.

Inflation is a bigger issue, but it's linked to illegal immigration because the aliens are getting checks without commensurate economic production. More money chasing the same good yields higher prices. Neither elected Republicans, who also favor illegal immigration, nor Democrats will tell the truth. The really sad part is the media cannot help but lie at every opportunity, so it also will not tell the truth about the consequences of illegal immigration.

Trump is a dumb pig. The fact he was the best candidate reflects how far the US has fallen.


I disagree. Dems do not want open borders and unlimited illegal immigration. No Dem I know does. But the problem was that they were ineffective and incoherent on their messaging on it, ineffective on legislation, and completely got drowned out, outmaneuvered and sabotaged by Republicans at every turn.

As for inflation, getting rid of every last illegal would barely make a dent in it and it's going to get a whole lot worse if Trump follows through with his blanket tariffs.

And there go all my posts. Yep, Democrats won’t learn a thing. They’ve lost the middle and they don’t know why and they don’t want to know why.

This was a reckoning. Thanks to the wisdom of our founding fathers, it was done at the ballot box instead of with violence.

The average person wants secured borders.

The Democratic party continues to stick their head in the sand and say anyone who disagrees is racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, etc etc. And maybe some of that is true.

But there's a big group of people who want common sense. They don't want trans kids to kill themselves, but they also don't want drag queens strutting half naked in elementary schools. They don't want immigrants in cages, but they also think 'catch and release' endangers our country. They don't want black teenagers in jail due to racist cops, but they are tired of watching habitual criminals face no consequences.


+1000 and let me add this, I am Latino and The average Latino hates the word "Latinx"

Democrats are in a tough spot because if they do or say one thing wrong they could lose a voter for life... So they are constantly playing the defense trying to politically correctly speak their way out of any difficult situation into appeal to every small Fringe group that there is.... Because I really do think they want freedom and Justice for all but that comes at the expense of winning.
Really think they need to identify some boulder blocks. They can shore up and focus on those and not constantly get pulled in the weeds on all of these other issues, but that gets messy as well because in this election Muslims overwhelmingly voted for Trump. A man who said he wants Israel to white Palestine off the map so people don't always vote logically

Democrats are the party of stupidity and lack common sense. Trump was right about that. Why would you want open borders, gender studies and critical race theory in elementary school when kids don’t even learn cursive anymore. Why would you support clean energy but allow China to make the solar panels and trade here for free? The pollution from China hits California in 10 days time.

None of those things are happening. You are such a tool. You parrot any BS fed to you on conservative media. This is why Dems are losing people. They assume people read and think critically about the information they consume.

There were a tremendous number of 2020 Dem voters that sat out of this race. Sitting out is not an endorsement of Trump’s policies. It’s also not an endorsement of Dem polices.

Dems don’t need to look at Republican issues to figure out where they went wrong. They need to figure out why so many prior Biden supporters didn’t vote at all.

For the PP mentioning Wisconsin, I don’t think it was split tickets. I think they voted for Baldwin and not Harris. That’s a huge issue and I agree with another PP that inflation, though not Biden’s fault, was a huge factor.

But Trump supporters need to stop gloating and think this election signaled support for his non-existent policies. It signaled that the Dems need to focus on issues that impact the 15M people who voted for Biden, but didn’t vote for Trump or Harris.


+1 . But don't forget it is we,dems, who lost because of trans athletes.Loool

It's not about why we lost, it's about why Trump one. He is the worst person for the office which he proves routinely, every single day, over and over, yet 50% of America voted for him. What does that say about YOU.

You are the typical low information Trump voter, so you have our sympathies.

The question is, why do you choose to live in a blue state when you could joint your fellow hillbillies in so many other states? It’s doesn’t much matter to me, you all have to hide like rats here, but wouldn’t you be happier elsewhere?

This. GOP is good at scapegoating and humans have always fallen for that.

Strong man who lies wins again. This is all about the people who voted for him and what they want and what they want to believe. The Dems need to get better at propaganda. The message of this election is simple: people liked the lies he told.

I’m a liberal who tracks red news and it was shocking how conservatives were not exposed to headlines or stories that were all over mainstream media! Even headlines like “they’re eating the dogs and cats” didn’t make it on Fox News. Instead there were pieces interviewing locals who had lost a dog or cat.

Dems need to aggressively market themselves online. We also need some rich guy to set up an entertainment site that goes after the uneducated but spoon feeds them liberal news. Sneak the vegetables in (real news) with the sugar (crap entertainment).


Brother, please. Dems had no idea Biden had lost his marbles with their selective news consumption.


And Republicans now have no idea Trump lost his marbles with their selective news consumption.

Biden's history. Trump is going to be a mess.


History will be much kinder to Biden than to Trump. Bank on it. If we are lucky enough to survive the Trump years, someday children will read about this time and wonder how Trump voters could be so gullible and cruel, much the way we look back at the Salem witch trials and McCarthyism etc. This is a pattern of human behavior.

The only way to counter propaganda is truth. Lesser lies don't help because there's no contrast.
