Right but this gets to Wichitaâs point.
Obama ran on âI will give you health careâ, had 60 fucking votes in the Senate, and we got Mitt Romneyâs Health Care plan that wasnât even written in a way that could survive the Supreme Court.
eDem messaging to poor people of âYour same life but 2-4.8% better over 4 years!â Just doesnât motivate people
Yes.
The majority of this forum bought all those indicators hook line and sinker
Now that I think about it, thatâs probably exactly what theyâre gonna do. Why go to the logistical trouble and expense when you can just make theatre of it, then people in South Dakota can praise him saying âIt worked! Since Trump got back in office, not a single person in my family has been raped or killed by an illegal! The GOP has my vote for life.â
I donât know if Iâd agree that the forum thought the indicators meant the economy was in great shape, and therefore folks werenât struggling with affordability.
The difference Iâm highlighting is that this is exactly what the right will do in just a few months. They literally believe that if you put an R on top of the same economy, then it is a good one. I donât think nearly as many Democratic voters are that dishonest, otherwise this chart would simply have inverse red/blue lines.
I would have won.
Blue Wall, more like Blue Lawl.
Itâs all about messaging!
And Dems are shit at that.
Reps are great at triggering the amygdala of fearful people.
Ilhan Omar did 10 points better in 2024 than 2022.
AOC probably did worse because she cooperated more with the DNC, didnât vote against some weapons to Israel (voted present) and voted to squash the rail workers strike.
Eta: Jayapal did the same
Eta: Pressley ran uncontested this time
Eta: Tlaib did 3 points better in 2024 than 2022
Ilhan Ohmar one of the absolute best.
Yes. I heart AOC as well, but a lot of her constituents were not happy with the three things I mentioned.
Need more Bernie style.
Yeah. Fear won.
Looks like Omar did more like 1 point better, which is still good. AOC seems to be slightly up from 2022 with not all votes reported yet.
Are you sure youâre not comparing 2020 and 2022 from Wikipedia?
I donât see a how the housing crisis doesnât get exponentially worse if Trump actually deports 20m undocumented people. Thatâs the entirely of the residential construction workforce.
But the houses they were living in become empty and non-deported people can move in.
Could be. Iâm walking my dog and using the phone and itâs not easy to look stuff up.
Arrow map (excluding west coast for some reason). A few modestly blue areas and a sea of deep red.
In terms of improving areas, youâve got:
- Colorado
- The crescent from Atlanta to Charlotte
- The shore of the northern half of Lake Michigan
- The western sliver of the Great Plains.
What ties these four area together I have absolutely no clue.
Prolly best not to bother atmo. Chill!
Iâm fixing a motorcycle; seems like a good use of time atmo.
