Summary

Despite Trump’s criminal record, serial lying, and racist demagoguery, he won the 2024 US presidential election, reflecting America’s deep-seated anxieties and cultural divisions.

Trump’s celebrity persona, economic populism, and culture warrior appeals resonated with his base, while Kamala Harris faced challenges in defining herself and overcoming gender and racial biases.

The election underscores the decay of American democracy, raising concerns about the future of the nation.

    Whiners like you enabled the genocide. What are you gonna do about it now, write the White House, " plz mister Trump I did my best to generate voter apathy so you can get elected, plz stop the genocide now"

    Now the Dems have NO political power, and geniuses like you will most certainly continue to blame them for not stopping Trump and the Republicans from finishing the job.

    Congrats, Quisling! You win!

      What you’re doing right now is the real culprit… punching left. I voted and I’m in a solid blue state so my electoral votes would have went to Kamala regardless but you’re not going to get that and I guess it really doesn’t matter cuz you’re never going to have a chance to vote in real election again anyway.
