The Democrat vote is ALWAYS 15 million below Biden’s RECORD popular vote number! Trump got HUGE numbers for a Republican. Do your homework, and stop trying to create a narrative using COVID numbers.

Surely you didn’t expect another 81+ Million democrat turnout like Biden got, did you? That will not happen again, not for a long time. It’s an outlier by a good bit. Even with the Libertarian and Green candidates it was ridiculous what happened last election, and is really only explained by Covid and people not having other things to do. Check out the link to Wikipedia popular vote numbers below, or just look at the graphic. It’s startling. You got as much as Democrats could give.

Massive Republican Turnout.

That’s never the case. You always need to campaign.

Not AGAINST something.

FOR something.

My little vote was a piss in the ocean, but the DEMOCRAT PARTY had the power to run a good candidate, to fund a GREAT CAMPAIGN, but instead, they put Trump in power. It was so bad it has to be deliberate.

And they got you to blame ME for it. Your fellow citizen.

The power elites win.

PS. I voted for Kamala, but I hate this shit of you blaming individual voters, like they aren’t just trying to vote for a better life for themselves.

Inflation killed her. It’s the economy. You have to send the message that you’re going to make things better. Numbers don’t help here. What matters is what people’s bank account is like.

She didn’t say shit about it. He did.

Did she campaign? Did she run a good campaign? Did she go into the black barber shops, like Trump did? Did she go into the McDonald’s, like Trump did? Did she go out to meet the people, like Trump did?

She tried scaring people away from Trump and it didn’t work. They want an economy that’s doing better than this. They want jobs. They want their life to be better.

That’s how you win elections. You tell people you know how to make their lives better. You don’t tell them the other guy is going to make their life worse. That doesn’t win an election. It never has.

It gets downvotes, but it’s still not wrong.

And I don’t suppose it could be because people are not happy with joblessness and inflation?

How does that compare to past elections?

Do you see enough votes from any independent to get Kamala elected? Stop blaming the voters. She didn’t campaign.
