Why did Kamala lose ?

Anonymous
Turns out if you try to assassinate the opposing party’s candidate multiple times and then call half the country Nazis and garbage people look at you as the bad guys.

The Democrats are the bad guys. They lost.

I bet they only lost because Putin and his troll farms hacked the voting machines last night.

I bet they’ll say this post was from a Russian troll farm.

The idiocracy is the left. They can’t tell their right foot from their left.

One side tries to experiment on kids through hormone blockers, allows men to pretend to be women in their locker rooms, funds endless wars, makes friends with the despised Cheney’s, think Trump will ban abortion and yet they lack total self reflection and call the other half dumb. Interesting

Oh I’m talking about you BTW…just so you know.

Given that the Democrats were the party contesting election results before the Republicans also started doing it (this does not excuse J6 in the SLIGHTEST), I wouldn't be surprised. Certainly someone has already started this nonsense on some corner of the internet.

Biden won by 16!!!!!


No way it should have been that close.

Lots of angry voters there voting against Harris!!!


I'm in suburban cook county and I know a shocking number of moms in my peer group who went for Trump. They had to keep it secret from their "vote blue no matter who" parents. But retired people have an old image of the Dem party that's no longer accurate. The moms had a variety of reasons but they ALL brought up the gender nonsense that permeates the schools. Assemblies in ES to celebrate a teacher coming out as trans, endless books about expressing your gender, teaching kids about being non binary. The party has alienated a generation of young parents with this baloney.

This...this is the hill you'll die on? I should mention she's very uneducated.


It’s emblematic of something bigger…including things like an outright dismissal of legitimate concerns coupled with an elitist judgment of their lack of education.

I mean, we just lost…to a really unqualified and dangerous person…and the knee jerk reaction is that more than half the country is stupid and we are smarter…really? If we were smarter, we would have won. We would have had better messaging that acknowledged all the concerns raised by voters over the last few years.


I can’t imagine any sane parent of daughters thinking Trump is the better option here. Explain it to me like I’m 5.

Democrats didn't try to assassinate him. And Trump called half the country garbage and scum.

-lenient with illegal immigration

-emphasis on wokeness, trans issues, DEI (all things that I care about but average person does not)
-perception that Trump will bring more blue collar jobs back home
-tremendous impopularity of Biden
-handling of Israel/Gaza war


+1. And Biden calling people “garbage” a week before the election didn’t help either (though I thought her response and distance to his comments was good).


Trump was calling Pierre ricans garbage a week before the election, called for the suppression of the free press, and for Liz Cheneys execution all in the past week. Not sure why Dems are judged on a double standard. The question isn’t why Kamala lost - it’s why did trump win despite all of his disqualifying factors including counted felonies, staging a coup, being twice impeached for quid pro quo and trying to obstruct democracy, his general vileness and all the other corruption of his first term.

And I honestly have no idea. I am completely puzzled. Trump is a disaster of a candidate. My best guess is that voters just didn’t “like” Kamala for the same reasons they didn’t “like” Hillary- deeply rooted misogyny. The war in Gaza also likely fractured democratic support, not unlike Bernie bros in 2016.




Hilary and Kamala are two deeply unlikable women. I held my nose and voted for both but neither one have a shred of likability.


And Trump is likable? Why must women be likable to be electable when men do not?

Hillary was a far superior candidate to both Kamala and, goes without saying, Trump. Brilliant, hard working, sharp, articulate, put in her time in real policy shaping roles, actually won a primary. Any man with her qualifications would have beat Trump, especially in 2024. This country just hates women and they have to clear hurdles that men do not.

What a racist and xenophobic generalization!

You are wrong and also a terrible human, PP.

And for your information, it is “LatinX people,” not Latinos.


It’s Latino and Latina . No one uses LatinX other than white women and dudes who put soy in their lattes


This, overwhelming percentage of Latinos in this country doesn't use or like the term. NYTimes reported it's something like 4-6% that support the term. Maybe start calling people but what THEY think they should be called.


Weird. The Latino community is who came up with it in the first place, and it got adopted my many others who were tired of having to type out "latino and latina" over and over again. Shorter to just type "latinx"


Queer online communities came up with that. And immigrants overall are more conservative. Of course it wouldn't stick with them.


I worked in an immigrant nonprofit and no one there was using Latinx. Actually they were using Hispanic.
