    Lots of people are blaming different events/people on why Harris lost. The one that gave me a chuckle was when some pundit on TV said it was Biden's fault. The democrat machine kicked Biden to the curb, anointed Harris and then Walz. Harris couldn't explain any of her policies and Walz didn't win his home county in Minnesota. Yet it's Biden fault Harris lost -- LOL
    Then there are those who can't handle the truth of why Harris lost so they just revert to the worn-out phrases of "sexist" or "racist".

    Say the guy who supports the side who blamed voter fraud as the reason Trump lost in 2020. Oh the irony.

    EITHER side using excuses like voter fraud or sexism or racism is WEAK. These types of excuses are the signs of losers and weak people. Period.

    Harris lost because she was a sh*t candidate who was installed at the last minute. She couldn't articulate any of her policies, and just offered up word salad and cackling when pressed on the issue.

    Turns out that running solely on identity politics and abortion doesn't win you the White House. People are broke, working two jobs, having to see money heaped upon illegal immigrants while they struggle, hundreds of billions of dollars given to foreign countries for war, and insulting more than half the nation on a daily basis.

    The internecine finger pointing and yelling will be fun to watch.

    Long story short, the Democrats have only themselves to blame. They were going to do what they wanted to do, whether it was good for the country or not.

    Statistically speaking, anything that can happen, will happen. So, one of these days it will be a black female running on both sides. It will be quite hilarious when neither side can claim sexism or racism, and have to run solely on the merits of their policies.

    Yes, I supported Trump three times. I did not support the claim of voter fraud. I accept and know that Trump and I will probably never agree 100% of the time.
    Yes, you are right, the worn-out terms of sexism and racism are relics of the past and need to be buried along with a lot of other terms applied to Trump, like "Hitler", "dictator", and "agent of Russia".

    Yet you've never argued against claims of "voter fraud".

    Harris lost for many reasons. Biden shouldn’t have run again. The DNC should have shut that down sooner. Harris should have better read the climate of the country and better differentiated herself from Biden.

    Ultimately, it might have been a lost cause regardless of what they did. Most western democracies are shifting towards populism. I’m not really sure liberalism resonates with Americans anymore.

    I think Sanders would have had a better chance, but he’s too old to be running these days.

    The most fun part will be watching the left blame everything on God's green earth but the actual cause because that means they'd need to buy a mirror.

    I have not. I stayed out of that claim waiting for more proof. I don't think conclusive proof of widespread fraud ever came. I'm sure there were small instances, but not enough to make a difference in the final results. That seems reasonable.

    You seem to be talking out of both sides of your mouth.
    You first say...."I stayed out of that claim waiting for more proof"
    But then say...I'm sure there were small instances, but not enough to make a difference in the final results."
    So if you don't think there was enough to make a difference then what would you need more proof for???
    So let's be honest, the only reason you didn't argue against the stolen election claims is because you won't allow yourself to be objective.

    I've been watching Fox the last few nights and they've been playing video clips of the left wing media melt downs. People like Reid and Scarborough have said that blacks weren't loyal to their color which is why Harris lost.

    What Fox didn't point out about the lib media is their hypocritical racism:

    Blacks need to be loyal to their color = the world is fine and dandy

    White supported their color = racism

    Same idea with women.

    Waiting for more evidence is being objective. He did the right thing.

    He said he was "sure" there were small instances, but not enough to make a difference. If he was so "sure" then there would be no need to wait for more evidence. Do you think he's waiting for Mike Lindell's evidence? Hahaha

    You remind me of my late father, rest his soul. When Dad was drinking, he would pick apart anything you said in an attempt to start an argument. The man would argue with a pine tree. Have you discussed this trait with your psychiatrist?

    She lost solely because the Democrat Party greatly miscalculated the sentiments of the average American and tried using the same tactics as 2020 believing it would work again. Name calling, bullying, gaslighting, manufacturing a candidate and hiding them from the scrutiny, etc.

    This stuff worked in 2020 because the Left controlled nearly ever aspect of media in the entire country from pop culture to social media to legacy media. If you offered any challenge to the Leftist ideology in any medium whatsoever you were cancelled, banned, fired from your job, etc. That enabled them to just bully the crap out of everybody and create the illusion that they were the majority and anyone who disagreed with them was minority relic of the past who was justified in being silenced in favor of the greater good. I'm not going to lie I honestly thought they were going to pull this off for a few years. I was looking around in a bit of shock thinking to myself how in the hell did everybody just suddenly become ok with all of this weird abnormal crap going on? Am I actually out of touch? Is this actually the new America that the people want? I mean everywhere I look online and on TV everyone just seems to either be accepting of this stuff or apathetic to it. In my small community nobody likes this stuff but the rest of the country seems to...

    Then Elon bought Twitter and broke the dam and everybody who was forced to keep their head down in silence was allowed to speak again and the country quickly realized that no everybody is not suddenly ok with all this stuff. They just weren't allowed to say anything before which created the illusion that the country has radically shifted. Once the silenced were allowed to speak again the Democrat playbook that worked so well in 2020 couldn't work again. Bombarding everybody who opposes you with accusations of racism, bigotry, sexism, phobia, etc didn't work anymore. Instead of keeping their heads down this time they rose up in defiance with two middle fingers in the air because they realized they weren't actually alone.

    The media taking their propaganda into overdrive ended up having the opposite effect and made them into a comically hilarious caricature of themselves. In a desperate attempt to paint Trump as literally Hitler this go around it made plenty of average folks say ok enough, you people are actually stupid, which turned many folks away from the media causing them to lose massive amounts of viewership and credibility.

    Basically their machine just broke. All in all the best way to sum this up is actually from a funny conversation that I saw take place on another platform the other day in reference to this election and trans people. Some very upset Progressive said "You're seriously willing to trade ****ing HUMAN RIGHTS and saving the environment for slightly lower gas prices!?!?".

    The average American: YES!

    Nobody is losing their damn human rights in America, but the average American seems to have grown tired of arguing with this nonsense so they seem to have begun leaning into it now and I personally love it.

    Oh the irony. We're all on here arguing. But when you don't like the argument because it calls out your inability to be objective you resort to insults. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    IF it was "Biden's fault"...
    THEN the " fault" was Biden not announcing his intention (not to run in 2024) sometime in 2023...
