Landslide? Trump Won With Only 1.6% Margin Among Voters

Twilight Hue

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Nope. Your direction will be crap like the last time. It always is with Republicans.
Elect incompetent people at all levels of government and you get incompetent results.
The voters are the problem. And then the voters will complain about their elected representatives, over and over.
Never realizing they themselves are to blame.
The low-information cycle continues.
Nice denial and insulting voters.

Maybe someday you will realize the real reason and it has everything to do with what you said in your post. Just not exactly in the way you think it is.

Your reason is a fantasy.
The real reason is people thought prices would be lower under Trump. Deny it all you want.
You act like MAGA has somehow gained sympathy and respect in America, nope. You're still the same people.
Nothing's changed.

Trump's initially large margin of victory was largely a red mirage, but he is using it for all he can. His supporters, of course, will just echo and amplify the "landslide" fib of Trump's plurality victory, because they want him to have the appearance of a mandate.

The reality is that Trump's popular victory is much slimmer than most popular victory margins in the past 100 years. Biden beat him by a much larger margin in 2020. Harris has done surprisingly well by historical standards, and she continues to narrow the gap. Trump has no mandate beyond the heavily skewed undemocratic electoral count. His radical political agenda needs to be strongly resisted by the half of the public that voted against him. He did not win a majority of popular votes, as was initially claimed.

Actually it's more like take a look into the mirror. Modern Democrats never learn their lessons. It's OK though. It will just ensure 8 years of Republican lead governance instead of 4.

There was no lesson to learn unless you'd recommend Democrats to lie to their constituents more often?
You prefer liars, I prefer leaders that are competent and honest.

Before Trump era there is war ... people die = worst
Fear of war, bombs, is one of the worst nightmares
Yes, but that decision by Putin had nothing to do with any mistake by Biden in my opinion, Putin was just being aggressive. Biden in that war rallied NATO against Putin. The Israeli war is another matter. He has managed that one poorly. Trump is chummy with Netanyahu, so he won't do any better there. Trump was also chummy with Putin if you noticed when he was President before. Trump adores strongmen. Evidentially you haven't remembered some of Trump's more alarming statements about Russia and Ukraine before he changed his tune as a strategy to win (in my opinion). Trump is not smart or knowledgeable, as I can see by the 6 bankruptcies his business went through. He only wants advisors to say what he wants to hear because actually he is insecure abut himself despite appearances. That won't help his foreign policy. I am saying this from a standpoint of following Trump and being knowledgeable about him.

In Washington state, we really don't have much of a say in the Presidential election, no matter how we vote. The candidates only come here for private fundraisers to get money.
Ending the electoral college will mean that everyone's vote counts the same. A blue person in a red state would not be swamped by their votes since it would be a national race and of course it would be true the other way around too.

It's not just a talking point but headline news.

Well, they did vote for low prices by voting for a man who's stated policy can only increase them. Tarrifs will raise them, as will forcing market forces back towards oil and coal (Green energy is now cheaper and posed to be the majority energy producer next year). Cut government spending and the deficit? You can't do that by slashing taxes and creating new government agencies, absuing and misusing the military at home, and by deporting people filling jobs Americans wont take (especially in agriculture), which is a double whammy as that's more for higher prices.
Amd they voted for someone military leadership has warned is unfit and dangerous with his fascist inclinations (turns out others were saying it way before Harris). It's also voting for someone who knowingly and deliberately lied about a deadly virus and election results and tried to overthrow it in a failed coup.
Yes, and instead of explaining these things the left just insulted us instead.

We know why we lost. Low-information voters believed voting for Trump would drop prices immediately.
That statement is directed at anyone who voted for Trump. All races and even Dems.
They were tricked. Emotions over facts.
Yeah. I met a couple people who don't trust bitcoin because it's not backed by anything tangible. This guy actually believes the USD is backed by the military, National Parks, some sort of buildings and other tangible things.

This is the left's talking points but it is not the entire truth. But this is why you lost, the left did not try to understand what Trump voters were about. They just insulted us. So 1.6% or 1 vote, I don't care. Trump won. All this talk about the popular vote is just for losers, it doesn't matter in presidential elections. If you want it to matter then change the constitution.
How are Trump's policies going to lower prices, exactly?
