Summary
Donald Trump has won the 2024 U.S. presidential election, marking a historic comeback as the first convicted criminal and the oldest person elected to the office.
His victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, who aimed to make history as the first female Black and South Asian American president, shocked observers and demonstrated enduring support for his populist, nativist platform.
Despite criminal convictions and ongoing controversies, Trump’s base remained loyal, propelling him past 270 electoral votes with a decisive win in Wisconsin.
His win raises concerns about future U.S. domestic and foreign policies, as he promises sweeping immigration crackdowns, “retribution” against political enemies, and domestic military deployments.
don’t blame the voters when Harris refused to bring more to the table other than ‘Not Trump’ and helping people get mortgages on overpriced real estate, and propping up the oil/fracking industry, restrictive border policy
guess people were not able to see the difference at that point and that is not on voters
in the same boat plus worse than your kids not even allowed to vote either
but it was on Harris to put out a better alternative
she came out as Trump Lite with similar policies and that is what lost the election
Harris could have taken what she was given and rolled right through to a landslide victory but instead she courted Republicans and advertised the same tired old politics
Those same kids probably also saw Harris throw them under the bus last week.
Just took another four years for his insurrection to be successful. Look forward to having him run for another term.
if Trump is not able to run again what else are the Democrats going to run on?
What the fuck is wrong with this country. After his first term, after watching this shambling fucking skeleton of hate and vitriol decompose in front of us for the next four years. What the fuck is wrong with this country
Voters wanted a candidate on the left, as usual. They weren’t given an option, so they didn’t vote. Same thing happens with Clinton. It isn’t rocket science.
Fucking stupid disinformation posts like this one across all platforms. When people don’t vote, their voices aren’t heard and this is what you get. If the Democrats had actually won across the board, it would have been the perfect time to force a shift left from within the party.
Fucking morons in this country.
If the left want someone to represent them they need to actually show up and vote. Politicians keep tacking right because those are the people who vote and may switch sides.
Misogynists and racists either didn’t vote or voted for the white man, even if they didn’t like him.
It’s always someone else’s fault and never the person that abandoned, ignored and smeared huge chunks of their voter base.
Around 52% of the eligible voting age population voted. And over 15 million less people voted this election cycle compared to last.
This is what people chose this election cycle and they will reap what they sow
At least next time you hear a kid saying they want to be president you can say: “Sure kiddo. Literally anyone can!”
