The president’s big gains with Black, Hispanic, and young voters in 2024 suggested a major shift. Less than two years later, he has lost those new supporters.
People are deciding they have nothing to lose. They might as well change something. They are wrong, but they can’t see the connection between their vote and losing their Healthcare 14 months later.
I wholeheartedly support a shift in our representatives such that they actually represent our interests instead of big corporations’ and billionaires’ interests, but those kind of changes come from the bottom up, not the top down, and even if that weren’t the case, even an imperfect democratic president would have been better than Trump.
While I could believe you when you imply that Trump got voted in by voters lashing out, that’s hardly a good way to repair a failing democracy. How many deaths can we lay at this administration’s feet, just this term? I hope these voters are aware that their vote for Trump made that happen, when it comes time for votes in the future.
Almost like a huge chunk of voters just want some kind, any kind of change.
What a lot of people seem to always forget is that changing things for the worse is still a change.

Thats a large part of what lead to Trump.
If by that you mean the establishment’s dogged refusal to deliver what voters want and insistence that everything’s fine, I agree.

You’d think Dems would maybe pick up on such a winning strategy
