The fact that this map exists is as big an indictment of American politics as anything I can think of.
The link says "Sorry, this content isn't available right now."
Probably should have just done this in the first place.

Buncha crap defending a fascist.
Your constant gaslighting and misrepresentation of what's been said gets tedious after a while, so I probably won't be responding to you on this issue any further.

I hate to admit this, but now that we're here I wish Trump won in 2020. That would mean first and foremost, he'd be fucking out of our lives for once.
ehhh.. I haven't even ruled out that he'll try and make a 3rd term happen in 2028, just that he'll probably thankfully die by then.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say in 2 years, there's going to be a big swing in the other direction, because Trump sows too much chaos and the GOP will overreach. I can't imagine them surviving in 4 years. I guess we'll see how bad things get.
If the sundowning that was evident on the campaign trail accelerates, I wonder what will happen. I know his handlers can get away with just letting him ramble for a good long time under controlled circumstances, but does he have 4 years in him?

A lot of that feedback likely came from stupid boomers and Gen Xers. That indicates education has been failing since the 60's. A cursory look at social media would show they can't even form thoughts.
They just regurgitate every Murdoch propaganda talking point they ingest. "But hunter bidan laptop!"
Hang on… Gen Xers? I thought we were the cool increasingly old people?
If we’re turning into Boomers, Millennials and Gen Z are next.

More than half of America wants a return to where the concerns and appetites of white men are prioritized.

Ended up at 62.9% in the end, by my maths. Christ.

Kamala Harris didn't run on bread and butter but she also didn't run on identity politics, unless you consider "running while black" etc running on identity politics.

As much as we like to think we've moved the needle it doesn't matter if it's the same record. We need a new record.
I'm curious as to how many of the 75,000 undocumented Canadians, 599,000 Europeans, and 1,697, 000 Asians will be getting booted if Trump holds his resolve for the first day. "There's no price tag," he says.

I’d say her the Dems allowed themselves to be defined as Cultural Warriors by their opponents. The Dudebro Trans Paranoia ads were ludicrous and meant the Dems got defined as the people that want your daughter getting slapped down in basketball by a 6’3” guy in a dress and stuffed bra. How do you respond to that without validating the claim? It’s a Catch 22 situation because 99% of the population have other priorities and the Dems weren’t talking about those either. Well, unless you count another Means Tested Fucking Tax Credit.
