[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's the outcome that is most perplexing to me.  The explanation being given by the talking heads is that they were unhappy with the Biden administrations support of Israel.  But they obviously realize that a Trump administration would be just as supportive of Israel.  I would assume that they would go with the candidate who belongs to a party that has a significant faction of people opposed to supporting Israel, which is non-existent in the Republican party.   Can anyone help me make sense of this?[/quote]

Protest vote. She could have met with them in a small group if she didn't want to be cornered. But they were not going to hear anything from her that they have not already heard: "stand with Israel but stop humanitarian crisis in region....blah blah blah"[/quote]

There is [b]no such thing as a protest vote [/b]and that’s what most of this thread is saying. [/quote]

That is FALSE. Do you want to speak to Dearborn MI residents who did just that??? [/quote]

They voted to make America worse. A vote for Stein was a vote for Trump. He will do nothing for Gaza, and he will make their lives harder here.  They should have voted for Harris, then organized a campaign to sway her when she was in office.

Instead, they voted to endanger the lives of my children, take away my health insurance, and my mother’s SS and Medicare.  My sympathy is dry.

I don’t think they’re alone by any stretch. I think a lot of left leaning voters were manipulated online to make them one issue voters in Gaza specifically to help Trump win. And unfortunately , it worked. [/quote]

I do not think even this pointlessly maligned population were single-issue voters. But it’s pretty easy for you to withhold your cleary expansive sympathy when the Michigan strategy was: bring Bill Clinton into the state to say publicly “Jews were there first!” to get a roar and clapter, and to also fly in Richie Torres and Doug Emhoff.

If the convo is about Michigan, in some pretty arrogant ways, the Harris campaign told hesitant voters to eff themselves. And they told the campaign to go to hell.[/quote]

Yeah Harris's messaging obviously wasn't effective!

I'm not sure why you're shouting at Dems now. We lost, badly - it's out of our hands what happens now. We didn't persuade these voters that we'd do more for them than Trump.

And now they get Trump. So - they voted, and they won.

And now they get Trump - and hopefully he'll keep all his promises.
