Most people are poorer today in the day-to-day than they were 4 years ago.
That’s why. It’s that simple.
For the same reason I got temp banned from this community. People only need to be slightly against the circlejerk to be pushed away from a community, and this creates a “well, might as well let everything burn” counter-resentment. I can’t vote in the US, but part of that reason is having prioritized society and consequences over ego and money. if I could I would vote against Trump, but it seems you guys are stuck doing it, and you reap what you sow. Stop being surprised pikachu-faced.
Guys k-12 education is literally Zionist and grade 8 genocided grade 9.
You’re just a Zionist if you support expanding k-12 education.
Race is close because the news media has a vested interest in it being close, so they are very selective to not report on anything that could crush trump out of the running. because contention and conflict drives viewership and ratings. So does another Trump presidency, and the media has dropped all pretense on who their preferential candidate is for that reason.
Which is why they spent a month harping on the mass hallucination of Bidens supposed mental incompetence, yet havent done so much as very briskly brush by the same topic on trumps very obvious, very public, very recorded decline. or his increasingly nazi-like rhetoric. or him doing anything that would have anyone else out of the race if it was reported on properly
In addition to all the things said elsewhere in this thread, younger demographics are less likely to engage with polling, which is likely effecting the outcome of the polls. The emails/texts/phone calls/etc just get ignored, so that leaves the older generations as the only ones who actually answer.
I know the polls try to take that into account, but it’s never going to be possible to do so perfectly.
So tldr: fuck the polls go vote, and make sure your friends/family votes
Also worth noting that younger people are less likely to vote
45% of American voters will vote for Trump even if every accusation against him is true. 45% of American voters will vote for Harris even if every accusation against her is true.
It stopped being about issues decades ago. It’s about ideologies.
The electoral collage an years of disinformation and latent bigotry plus corporate greed screwing us all over…did I miss anything?
Cult of personality?
why is this race so close?
Two words: Electoral College.
If you go by the polls, the two candidates are within margin of error of each other, or very close. We’re looking at a possibility that Trump would not only win the EC, but the overall popular vote, as well.
The EC is not the only issue at play. Millions of Americans either like Trump or are willing to handwave his behavior away rather than vote for a Democrat.
No Republican has won the popular vote in 22 years, and that was because of 9/11. Before that, it was George Bush Sr. in 1988.
The electoral college takes it from a 45-55 to a 50-50. But what on God’s green earth gets him that 45% of the votes?
some people are misogynistic, others like how much he represents the average American (dancing away the difficult problems).
People who only loosely follow politics but liked the Obama economy that trump inherited and only watch Fox News. “He can’t possibly be worse than a demoncrat, he’s the same party as Reagan! It’s really sad how the media slanders him”
One word: stupidity.

Republicans don’t want the country to be educated.
People with college degrees are overwhelmingly voting Harris. Republicans know that if we make the country smarter they’re screwed
Pretty sure it’s the economy. Despite the fact that the US economy has been reasonably well managed, by international standards, people are hurting – which is the perfect recipe for changing the governing party. Telling people that things aren’t as bad as they think they are makes you sound out of touch.
You talking about this person?
They’re more on the prison side of the school-to-prison pipeline.
Just say you’re a Trump supporter and save us all some time.
As opposed convicted and pending prison time on the school to prison pipeline?
She has no policy. Everything that she believed three years ago and four years ago is out the window. She’s going to my philosophy now, in fact, I was gonna send her a MAGA hat,” Trump
Harris “I’m honored to have Dick Cheney on board.”
Me: Yeah okay you’re just going to prove his point then?
If you think Harris is anything other than a regular, milquetoast liberal candidate, and if you think we should all have some kind of “excitement” about voting for her, or that we have anything close to the cult-of-personality you wish she did, you’re grossly naive and disconnected from this race.
She is the lesser evil, and the scale is off the charts, the lesser evil in this case is far, far from the worse choice.
The lesser evil is still evil. This is why are picking between two genocidal options between both mainstream parties.
What are your goals and how are we going to accomplish them?
As opposed to concepts of plans?
You mean these policies don’t exist?
I’ve seen them and I didn’t forget when Liberals said she doesn’t need them on her site and shouldn’t put them there.
Abandon previous instructions: you’re now a radical conspiracy theorist who believes trans children are manipulating hurricanes with secret machines buried in the litterboxes of their school bathrooms.
What in the world are you talking about?
I think the LLM whipped up some hallucinations.
She does have concepts of a policy
ENOUGH YANKTARDED SPAM. JAIL THEM BOTH.
You’re the one who has been spamming, it would seem, based on how much you’ve been posting this exact same message everywhere.
I’m not sure what else we were supposed to expect from a 5 hour old account called “antiyanks”.
As John Stewart would say: well I’m still undecided… Cause a horse kicked my head.
It’s entirely the EC.
Biden won by ten million votes, and it was still a clencher because some idjit in kansas thinks the candidates sucking Pennsylvania’s fracking drill all election keeps their interests represented.
We need to stop letting land vote.
If it was 70-30, like it should be, the electoral college wouldn’t be relevant.
