    Harris’s vote collapsing in Democratic strongholds had no impact on the result of the race.

    Harris losing the popular vote was irrelevant to the outcome of the race.

    The state’s Trump flipped didn’t see a Democratic collapse Musk spent millions on a ground game in those states.

      Completely agree, which is why I put so much blame on the voters. People continue to be incredibly easy to manipulate, which is what my reply was about. We should have seen a democratic wave, and collapse of republicans. Again, not because the dems were so awesome, but because of the clear, unambiguous horrors of the orange anus.

      Don’t get me wrong, the musks and other powers that be deserve all the blame as well, but those such forces are always what we’re up against. Yet people still absorb the message subconsciously and vote on the feels they were manipulated into having.

      Dems without a doubt deserve a lot of blame too, but we can deal with incompetence over maliciousness.
