You're viewing a single thread.
You can't be both pro-labor and pro-corporate. Corporate support may fund your campaign, but labor support gets you the votes and that is what matters in the end.
Really? Cause Trump got the votes and he's definitely pro corporate.
Yeah, but he says things at his rallies that make him appear pro-labor. Never mind his history, never mind his intent - Trump attempts to have the right optics, and in politics that matters way more than objective facts on policy (unfortunately). This works way better than what the Dems did fucking around with the likes of Mark Cuban and Liz Cheney while pretending Bidenomics helps anyone but mega corps.
They mean you can’t BE both. Not that you can’t sucker voters.
He didn't get the votes. The Democrats didn't do anything to encourage voters to turn out. Trump had a similar showing as he did in 2020, while the Dems ate shit because they had nothing to offer America other than "Trump is bad".
Actually, Trump 2024 beat Biden 2020's numbers in all but one key swing state. In other words, the loss in Dem voters were from places that didn't really matter (indeed, Harris outperformed Biden in most of the swing states, the only ones that matter due to Electoral College). Trump 2024 would have beaten Biden 2020.
So, yes, Trump did get the votes.
If you want to downvote me could you at least comment and let me know why? Do you just not like facing the reality that Trump did in fact get the votes?
Trump also won with first time voters. That ought to really wake the Democrats up, but I kinda doubt it will.
