    Yet another person with a lack of understanding of why Trump won.

    He got about the same amount of votes as in the last election. It’s the Democrats that couldn’t get people to vote for them.

    What I think were the main causes are not dropping Biden sooner, failure at acknowledging his shortcomings, failure at taking a stance on Palestine and attempting to appease the right instead of their core voters.

    None of these have much to do with zoomers.

    EDIT: Compared to 2020, Republicans gained 3.08 million votes, while Democrats lost 6.27 million.

      Yep. Die hard dem supporters will blame anyone except the actual party who put on a total loser of a campaign. Noone is to blame for the dems losing except, shocker, the dems.

            . You know, fun, wild concept. But reality is complex and people who try and reduce things down to a single blameable target are simple and easily manipulated.

              Ha. Like all the dem bootlickers who have been manipulated into blaming their fellow americans rather than the party that actually made the choice to sell out the country? Keep being manipulated.

                I see you couldn’t read my comment. So, let me play it for you straight. Blame can be shared. The people are an issue. The party is also an issue. Both should be blamed.

                People who think it’s just the party being terrible are ignoring the decades of work the Republicans put in to manipulate dip shits. Like you.
