But but but aren't Dems living from paycheck to paycheck too?
I see the typically pro Repub Mainstream Media pundits are blathering their usual trashing of the Dem Party, their "failures" to understand this or that, their ineffective campaign strategies and tactics, losing touch with the American people and all that while praising the genius of Trump, the connection Repubs have with the American people, how Trump got it that this economy sucks while Harris didn't and all that.
However, this is what happened in terms of 2024 voter turnout:
[B]Trumps victory and his improvements all across the country.
Compared with 2020, a greater share of votes were cast in red areas.

[QUOTE]Overall turnout numbers will continue to tick upward over the remaining weeks as additional ballots are reported.[b] But the disparities in the current results are clear in suggesting a strong performance from the GOPs base, and lower turnout from Democrats.[/b]
The shifts were not entirely uniform: Turnout did not drop as much in Democratic strongholds in the battlegrounds, perhaps a sign that the partys campaign apparatuses and the significant attention paid to the election in those states still drove the partys base. In Wisconsin, for example, turnout in Milwaukee and Dane counties roughly matched 2020 numbers.[/QUOTE]The history of Dem vs Repub voter turnout for the most part shows Dems turning out to vote more than Repubs during times of verifiable, objectively identifiable economic distress while Repubs turn out to vote more than Dems after being riled up by irrational fear, hate and sucker social issues spun by their Party's con men along with their perennial election benefactors in Mainstream Media.
Despite what they give for an easier, lazier answer to the "Which Party / candidate handles the economy better" poll question, the consistent historical fact is the American Electorate does not elect more Repubs to fix the economy when it is indeed crashing down around our ears as it does so often at the end of Repub presidential terms. They vote for more Dems to fix it.
Only when the economy and jobs creation is doing quite well are Dems complacent enough to stay home or to not bother to vote. Like they did this time.
As I pointed out months and months ago, the irony is the greatest threat to an easy re-election of Joe Biden is that in fact his economy is doing too well. That is precisely when voters and particularly Dem voters don't feel a need to race to the polls on election day or bother to vote by any other means. They are fine with how things are. Oh, they LOVE to complain about it, about the price of everything. But their habitual complaints about those things don't translate into being so concerned about it they must vote to change it.
Kamala Harris lost while Trump benefitted from those circumstances this year the same way Hillary Clinton lost while Trump benefitted in 2016. At the end of Obama's presidency, the economy was doing quite fine and everyone knew it.

That's why more Repubs than Dems came out to vote this time around and the only reason Trump was carried into a win on a Red wave. Period. Sorry.
People have always complained about the price of bacon and eggs. Yet, plenty of bacon and eggs are bought and eaten every year.
Considering wages have far out-paced the typical American worker's purchasing power of 2019, adjusted for inflation (thanks to Blue Cities in Blue States raising the minimum wage in 2018 and 2019, the ripple effect from that into higher wage earners and the brave and brilliant Biden recovery from Trump's Pandemic), the reason fewer Dems showed up to vote this year was simply because their financial situation is quite alright today, thank you very much. As it also is for Repubs. But Repubs were riled up to vote by con man Trump based on irrational fear, hatred and the usual sucker social issues than can always be relied on to rile up Repub suckers.
It would be interesting to see how many Propositions on ballots around the country requiring additional expenditures to fund this or that also passed just fine this year compared to, say, 2008 and 2020. That would be because voters know they can afford it. Thanks, Joe.
And now you know the REST of the story.
Best save your energy for the REAL work ahead...
[QUOTE=Woodman09;2958824]What is KKKK? Ku -Klux- Klan- something?[/QUOTE]Yeah, Trump's Papa Smurf, was a member of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK), glad you're paying attention!
Funny you ask, as your KKK comment, is used prolifically, by another member of your MAGA ISG cohorts, perhaps you should ask them, n'est-ce pas? [i][b](...kkkk!) See the difference?[/b][/i]
[QUOTE=Woodman09;2958824]LOL a great economy? 10,000 jobs last month --High Inflation-- I guess the Majority of voters are just Dummies and Spidee is a Genius--LMAO.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2958834]Not even one day after being wrong about anything do you eat any humble pie. Of course it is the same old bullshit with you and all them. Oh we were all wrong about Trump winning? Never mind.
Maybe shut up and figure out what you got wrong before popping off again. How about that? [/QUOTE]You guys can bloviate, all you want, in the face of a trifecta. Less excuses for MAGA, to hide behind, when enviably shit doesn't get done and the "know nothing", "do nothing" MAGA congress show up.
So enjoy the win, the REAL work (not shooting off your mouth prematurely), for Repubs/MAGA to [I][b]"run the country into the ground",[/b][/I] starts very soon!
But I'm really hoping, this time around for Repubs and MAGA, it'll be different and won't be the case? Here's to hoping!
MAGA is a big tent but like I said before we didn't need or want your vile vote
[QUOTE=Tiny12;2959037]Actually I'm celebrating the defeat of old white men, Democrats Jon Tester, Sherrod Brown, and Bob Casey. And the victory of one old white woman, Republican Deb Fischer. Republicans will control the Senate! Unfortunately American Hero Mitch McConnell, who's retiring, won't be leading them next year. It's almost certain Republicans will control the House too, a fact not recognized by many Democrats. Joy Reid on MSNBC still thinks Hakeem Jeffries will be the next Speaker of the House!
Trump's a mixed bag. I couldn't vote for him, because of his character and his election meddling in 2020/2021. But he will promote deregulation and rational taxation. Hopefully he'll play a part in bringing peace to Ukraine. On the other hand, he's a spendthrift. A Harris presidency and Republican Congress would perhaps be less likely to run big deficits. But maybe there's light at the end of the tunnel on that. Trump said Elon Musk will engineer cuts to save the federal government $2 trillion a year. Ojala!.[/QUOTE]I really hope you voted for the gay dude with the loaded gun for you.
And congrats you might just actually be even worse than ET and Spidy with your toxicity.

NOW The DNC can suck Willie Brown 24/7 w / Harris.

You know Trump already had a 4 year term, right? With a record of results.
[QUOTE=RamDavidson84;2959004]It really never ends LOL. Trump could literally save the Planet from world war 3, Alien invasion, and an asteroids strike in the same month and Dems will still find something to complain about. Give the man a chance and wait until he actually does something fucked up to call him out on.
Here are some examples of the Biden failures.
1. Pull out of Middle East failure.
2. Closed pipe line costing 50,000 jobs in PA. Probably cost him those electorals too, but he had to bend the knee to the deep state..[/QUOTE][B]Trump to leave office with the worst jobs record since Herbert Hoover.[/B]

BTW, Trump himself admitted if we'd only gotten a heads up about those emerging COVID cases "two months earlier, we could have stopped it easily. " Meanwhile, Trump was more responsible than any other person on the planet for more responsible parties NOT getting that heads up "two months earlier ".

[QUOTE]Talking to Woodward on March 19, 2020, Trump said Barron, then 13, asked what was going on and he answered: I said, it came out of China, Barron. Pure and simple. It came out of China.

And that is in addition to the fact that your list of total nonsense can not be remotely substantiated to be a Biden failure or transgression anyway.
