    In the end it is about messaging. Always was but now more than ever with social media most people are voting on vibes. In New York they used it masterfully, laser focused on simple economic messaging without getting lost in the weeds. Kamala did the opposite, confused voters with wishy-washy messaging. People wanted change and she offered more Biden, if she had any kind of coherent message.

      The election was stolen from her, so criticizing her performance feels disingenuous.

        You think she ran a good campaign? It’s still partly Biden’s fault for not getting out sooner. Both of those things are on those two individuals.

          Im not saying she ran a good campaign, but i do believe she won. There is too much evidence of cheating. Trump and Musk both publicly said they cheated, and the biggest smoking gun of all, is the fact that Trump “won” all the swings state by just enough margin to not trigger a recount. No president in histoey has ever been so popular to clinch all the swing states. Thats just too much fuckery.

          Could Harris have run a better campaign? Absolutely. Does she deserve critisism for losing to Trump who cheated? Absokutely not.

            Is had never occurred before, at least in an election without a true landslide candidate, that one side won every flipped county. Normally some counties always change in both directions, but in 2024 it was the first time ever in a close election that every single county that flipped went to the republicans, while the dems flipped zero. Mathematically that is beyond extremely unlikely to occur in any close election, as there are well over 3,000 counties and similar statistical areas. Yet allegedly it did in 2024
