Yet no message was as unpopular as the one we call the “democratic threat” message.

Much like Harris’s recent rhetoric, this message called on voters to “defend our freedom and our democracy” against a would-be dictator in the form of Trump. It named Trump as “a criminal” and “a convicted felon” and warned of his plans to punish his political enemies. Of the seven messages we tested, each relating to a major theme of the Harris campaign, the “democratic threat” message polled dead last.

Populism vs. Plutocracy

It's hard to watch the wealthy elite demand obedience from us and punish us when we refuse to comply, then see them as defenders of democracy.

They've gotten so wrapped around themselves that they're all over the place having a fit because....the majority of voters voted against....democracy....

🤔

Stephen Colbert said it flat out:



To them "democracy" means, "Do what we, the 1%, say." Which is, of course, the exact opposite of democracy.

So I want to offer an apology to my fellow humans. I really didn't think they had it in them. Independent thought is a marvelous thing and it always makes me happy when I see someone exercising it.

:clap:

Keep hearing the same thing... "Ran an amazing race!!"

She was a dolt. An airhead. Couldn't/wouldn't answer one, NOT ONE question on policy or plans. She was worthless as a candidate and should NEVER have been put in that position, much like poor Biden in later months. Trump won by virtue of being a better candidate, and that's all. Not because he's a man, not because she's "a black woman" (liar...). The better candidate won, like what is supposed to happen.

Many of us on here knew that Trump could win, but we did not have confidence in our voting system after 2020. We were all so sure he would win in 2020 and he didn’t, so with this election, we did not want to get our hopes up that he would win, knowing the Dems could steal it from him and us again. We can never ever let them steal another Election from us again!

He should be happy. 4 more years of railing about Trump will keep his job.

The difference this time was changing the rules to include the early votes and not wait until late and dump them in.

2020 had the mechanism of broad balloting by mail and ballot harvesting that was claimed to be needed because of the China Flu. It was the perfect plan for the steal.
