Harris only received five percent of Republican votes — less than the six percent Joe Biden won in 2020 when he beat Trump, as well as the seven percent won by Hillary Clinton in 2016 when she lost to him. While Harris won independents and moderates, she did so by smaller margins than Biden did in 2020.
Meanwhile, Harris lost households earning under $100,000, while Democratic turnout collapsed. Votes are still being counted, but Harris is on pace to underperform Biden’s 2020 totals by millions of votes.
Well let’s hope so so they can collapse and a real leftist (or even just sane) party can rise from the ashes.
If a “real leftist” party arises from the ashes, guess what will happen? They will lose in the election. That’s the whole point of what I’m saying: left policies do not win elections. We literally just saw this. Harris said to the left “come out for your body rights. come out for your democracy.” If the left can’t come out for that they 1) will literally never ever come out, or 2) they don’t exist.
What wins elections is “it’s the economy stupid”.
