Trump Tower Gaza

“Will the big money interests and well-paid consultants who control the Democratic Party learn any real lessons from this disastrous campaign? Will they understand the pain and political alienation that tens of millions of Americans are experiencing? Do they have any ideas as to how we can take on the increasingly powerful Oligarchy, which has so much economic power?” Sanders asked.

”Probably not”

Bernie has been the Cassandra of the Democratic Party for decades. They need to realize that it has gone too far. The insane wealth gap, which has surpassed pre-Revolution France at this point, combined with the unaffordability of everything has created a crisis that won’t be fixed by platitudes and vague promises.

People are desperate, afraid, and angry. Changing that to hope and enthusiasm requires real plans that average voters can understand and even more than that requires correctly showing people the source of the problem.

Being beholden to billionaires is the real problem. And all their money, advertising, polling, and other bullshit didn’t do a damn thing to help Harris. Take them on the way FDR did or give the country to republicans permanently.

Exactly. Trump always looks strongest early on. He looked like he had beaten Biden on the early counts. Blue votes get counted later.

I’m seeing that, and I appreciate the level of work that went into putting that together, but I think it’s confusing people.

82,000,000 people voted early. It’s ridiculous that the race doesn’t start with those votes counted and reported.

Trump is up 3,000,000 in the popular vote in reported precincts. That trend will not hold. Harris will flip that and then some.

Megathreads for random bullshit can be awful. Megathreads for major global events are awesome.

And we aren’t that small when everyone is together in one place commenting about something huge and relevant. It can be a lot of fun.

Thank you.

I hate to be that guy and maybe I’m just missing it, but is there a megathread for the election?

Edit: Not to say these posts aren’t valuable. They obviously are. I’m just not seeing a central discussion.

Behold the undecided voter. These people decide the election if they actually show up to vote.

He’s already crying foul? Are the numbers that bad? First solid good sign of the night.
