Find me anyone mentioning the price of eggs back in November. That wasn't a thing.
I do remember a lot of people very vocal about Palestine, and how important it was to not vote for the Democrats over it. And just how are the Palestinians enjoying their hard won Republican victory? I'm still not convinced that wasn't a foreign psyop.
Hating black women? Sure some of that happened. Hating black men happened in 2008 and again in 2012. Remind me who won those elections?
Barack Obama ran on a campaign of hope and change. Kind of a charismatic JFK sort of persona, fairly young for a president, grade school age kids, projected energy and verve, inspiring speaker, etc. His campaign embraced the internet and social media in a way that hadn't ever been done before which made a lot of young people feel seen. That simply isn't there anymore. The official Democratic party policy is Nanci Pelosi's stock portfolio and their official messaging is " 🏳️🌈 #blm #latinx" It was more important to run a woman candidate who wasn't able to give a coherent answer to "What is a woman" because appearing to pander to the feminist and trans community was more important than winning the damn election. "At least we're not our opponents" yeah that's basically all you've been since the youngest eligible voters today were born; people can only hold their noses for so many decades.
Let's be honest, the Dems were hoping that being afraid of Trump was going to win them 2024 the same way it won them 2020, except that the only reason it worked in 2020 was because being under Trump was fresh in people's minds.
