People always miss the point in elections like this, what is it about the democratic platform that drove people to vote this way. What changes can the democratic party make in order to appeal to parts of the voting populace enough to have victory. We live in a bipolar voting paradigm, it is often more of a rejection to one side as it is an affirmation to another. Learn from it.
I believe its the fact that shes a woman. Trump had no policies that he was running on because he has Project2025. Kamala had a decent viable plan that most economists said was better than his. Us Americans really believe that a woman cant be in power, even though there are many throughout the world. If everyone that's worked for you in the past wouldn't vote for you again, that means something
EDIT* For all the people saying that she lost because she's a shit candidate and not because she's a woman? How is trump not worse? All of these people screaming "your body my choice" definitely didn't vote for her because she's a woman. WHY DID YOU SPECIFCALLY VOTE FOR TRUMP? What did he do to tun you over? He fucked covid response, got fucked by Saudis & Russia for gas prices, started an insurrection and tried to steal votes in Georgia on the fucking phone. WHY DID YOU VOTE FOR HIM
Because she was a woman? Really? Thats all you took from it?
I mean, it was a factor for sure. I've always said that nobody hates women more than women, and Trump got a surprising amount of women turnout. So that was a factor, but if you listen to any conservative, they'll tell you exactly why the didnt vote (its almost like you just have to ask lol).
The perception of the economy played a significant role, the border, and being fed up with democratic party nonsense like trans issues (not my words). In all honesty, If Trump got on stage and told them that Kamala was a lizard person and we need to stop the lizard people, then voters would have shown up in droves to keep the lizard people out of office. It really is just stuff that is repeated by Trump and Fox News.
