Youāre in the headline, btw.
Iām not American.
And most Trump voters/no voters are going to wish they werenāt either in three or so years.
Iām not American
Iā¦then why are you telling Americans that weāre wrong for thinking the DNC ran a shit campaign?? Like, youāre right, weāre in for a FUCKED time starting January 2025, but did you really expect people to turn out on election night out of an existential threat? Does that happen where you live?
Harris didnāt lose because everyone voted for Trump, Harris lost because the Demās voter base felt so unheard by their own candidate regarding their issues that they stayed home, exactly as Bernie Sanders said. The numbers and voter stats are all there for people to read. Harris AND Trump got overall less votes than 2020, but Harris lost the Blue Wall from 2020. Hillary at least won the popular vote, Harris and the 2024 DNC donāt even have that.
It doesnāt matter where you are in the world, voter turnout correlates to progressives getting in power. The conservatives always have a core base of ~20-30% of voters that will always show up (no really, look up historical voter numbers in your own country), and the DNC have really tried appealing to these people in the US instead of bringing out their own base!
Itās a flawed strategy because itās shown over and over again that these core voters will always vote through their conservative party lines.

Youāre right. Too stupid of me to think Americans would hold their noses and vote to keep someone whoās objectively worse for the whole planet out of the oval office.
Does that happen where you live?
No unfortunately, but I live in a third world country full of uneducated population. Again, dumb of me to assume Americans would be any different.

And theyāre getting second Trump presidency. Good job riding that high horse. š
Itās not a high horse, because I voted for Kamala Harris. But as someone who actually goes here, I knew this was going to be the exact outcome, because this high minded āvote for Trump to save democracyā is what got us in this mess in the first place. It happened in exactly like this 2016, and the Demās didnāt learn.
Sure, we can blame the electorate, Iām all for it. But saying that itās SOLELY the electorateās fault when the DNC has been trotting out milquetoast candidates one after the other is so disingenuous. Americans keep saying they donāt want two right wing candidates, but no one is listening.
