I mean the DNC was promising... Almost nothing. Say what you want but that lesser evil nonsense is not democracy and there was no way it was ever gonna work.

I'm not sure but isn't that a thing more among Latino immigrants?

I don’t think this was the decider

It's not the only factor, but I think it's a fact that had Arab Americans voted blue in the same numbers as 2020, democrats would've won Michigan. Which wouldn't have fucking mattered because Harris lost before Michigan even finished counting, but yeah.

They're still solidly blue when people actually vote.

I mean that's most of America.

Khan or better? Nope, definitely not. It's Lina Khan or a corporate suck up.

worse than trump who would keep kahan?

If you think voters compare between the two candidates on every single policy to make a 100% logical choice of who to vote for then I have bad news for you.

They live in the Emirates so life must be very restricted for her.

As a Middle Eastern guy with stereotype-level knowledge about the Emirates, I don't think so. Even if Islam demanded women be restricted in their lives (it doesn't) Emirates is very famous as an "only Muslim on the cover" country. Now we can't really guess anything about her life, but whatever she wants to do, it won't be the country stopping her.

And wages might be growing, but are lagging far behind inflation.

To be very fair real wages grew during Biden's administration, but probably not enough and definitely not for everyone.

I mean to be fair it probably wasn't necessary until last Tuesday.

Only those who visit Lake Como can want to buy our souvenir; memories are not bought but lived.

Amazing.

I mean he would love to be a front seat driver but the DNC won't let him.

someone was just tellin me that pamela lost because she did not stand behind lina khan enough.

I mean that's definitely part of it. Lina Khan was one of the best parts of the Biden administration, so if Harris won't even promise that then she wasn't just a status quo candidate; she was a status quo but worse candidate.

Trump won this fair and square, as much as it sucks to admit. I sincerely doubt there were enough stolen votes to matter anywhere; he just ran a competent campaign and Harris didn't.
