Why is the focus on Black men when fewer than 25% voted for Trump. Meanwhile more than double that percentage of white women voted for Trump. Where is the analysis of their bizarre voting behavior?
Exactly like 2016.
White women gave Trump the Presidency because deep down, they know structural racism benefits them more than any other group besides white men.
As we transition into full-blown tyranny, and the out-group begins to grow, I’m trying to educate myself about how to cope with it, survive and maybe even resist. I have found that discussions among black Americans online are extremely enlightening in this regard, presumably because they have existed forever in a precarious state, something like that which many more of us are about to be thrust. I’m not interested in scapegoating black males over this election. This happened because too many Americans are dumb fucks, ruled by emotions, and gullible as hell. End of story.
I’m fucking sick of talking about race as if it means anything at all compared to class. We need a two step program
- Tax the fucking billionaires out of existence
- Stop destroying the biosphere
Want to make that program palatable? We use the billionaire taxes to make life suck less for everyone in a clear, food-on-the-God-damn-table-and-children- in-decent-schools Kind of way.
Racism is real and deadly, but what are we gonna do? Bully the racists into being less racist? Send them off to camps for re-education? Let’s just focus on giving everyone enough money that they don’t have to rely on some racist boss to give them a job, or a racist landlord to give them (allow then to pay for) a home.
Healthcare not tied to employment too pls.
Sounds good until you factor in the need for votes to get such policies in place and the fact that it won’t happen because the racists are responding to media stimulus.
Going to be some well fed leopards next year when Trump starts deporting them.
If it really starts happening I think we would immediately see so much bad raw footage.
I mean there would have to be l mass deportation camps built and people raiding houses. Also blue states won’t go along with it.
Which will likely sway public opinion back to Dems who will win in 2026 midterms.
But… 2 years of unrestrained power can do a lot of damage.
They’re gonna make an excuse to not have midterm; then the country is under attack from whatever and not have 2028.
Most of the border states voted for him. California is the sole resistance but they’re going to face a lot of problems as they get flooded with refugees.
This is the big zionist media lie they used to favour Trump.
“More pro business” does not mean better economy and jobs. It just means making the oligarchs even richer.
If media keeps telling you Biden economy is shit, even when its not, you have to be very economically sophisticated to know they are lying for Trump/GOP.
There will be no tax breaks for tips, overtime, or social security. These are not Republican “values”. Only slavery is. Tax cuts for corporations and rich will happen. Tariffs and antagonizing world will not reindustrialize America.
Media enabling a confident liar, with massive Zionist money, is what got him elected.
We look forward to the job and economic opportunities that the asteroid will provide.
I expect many posts in the “leopards ate my face” category from that group.
Boy, are they going to be surprised when the minimum wage goes down and what little worker protections US workers have are gone and the economy tanks because of Trump tarrifs and the retaliatory tarrifs from the rest of the world
Work will set them free unfortunately
I expected this after watching Khalid Attaf videos of talking to customers in his family’s gas station/convenience store. It was depressing to see the reasons people were planning to vote this way. If you watch this, save at least a thread of sanity and don’t read the comments.
I guess we had Too Much rising wages and record unemployment that it made them all nervous of when the fuckening was going to happen.
Lol. I ain’t touching this shit with a sky track forklift with a 20 ft boom
You gon learn today…
God, this article is awful.
There’s stuff like this:
A majority of voters nationally said Trump was a strong leader; slightly fewer than half said the same about Harris.
…which implies there’s some significant difference here without giving you the specific numbers. Is this 51% to 49%? They go into the Latino specifics, but only for Trump, but even break it down further to say what percent of Latinos think Trump is strong versus the percentage of Latinas that think Trump is strong.
The AP is always held up as this infallibly unbiased source, but even if we agree that being unabashedly both-sides centrist is unbiased, that’s not even close to what’s happening here. To even remotely both-sides this you’d have to show all the people that think asking the question of Trump’s strength is an absolute joke and it’s bizarre we’re even discussing it because the only people that believe in strongman leadership are literal fascists.
With respect to the actual headline and meat of the article, it also doesn’t challenge the assumption that Trump would be better for the economy. If you’re going to include people who were brainwashed into believing that, you have to juxtapose them with the endless historical precedents and current studies that show his policies will absolutely be detrimental to the economy. Even corporations are going to tank in the long term, because you can’t steal from the working class forever.
By continuing Trump’s campaign propaganda without serious challenge, this is a right-wing article in support of his administration. A more centrist article would say something closer to “Trump tricks public into believing he’ll be better for the economy” because that’s the reality of what happened.
Fuck this scapegoating bullshit.
