Summary
This victory makes Trump the first U.S. president to serve non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland and the first with a criminal conviction to hold office.
Democrats were shocked by the loss, particularly as exit polls revealed significant shifts among key demographics: Latino men favored Trump by 10 points, and more voters identified as independents or unaffiliated.
The economy was the top priority for Trump supporters, while Harris voters emphasized democracy and abortion rights.
The election also showed increased dissatisfaction with the country’s direction, as 72% of voters expressed anger or frustration.
Progressive doesn’t get you anywhere in America
How would you know, we haven’t had a viable progressive party in decades. We’ve only had conservative and diet-conservative. Turns out that’s not a winning move. I don’t even know how we go about fixing the country at this point, but a top to bottom overhaul of the DNC couldn’t possibly hurt.
That’s exactly my point. Hell Oregon has a progressive party and they can’t win local elections in supposedly a progressive state.
It sure as hell looks like going the other direction worked /s
Because the country has moved further right than the 90s/early 2000s Republicans
