1. How could Harris enact such policies, if she was Vice President? Did you actually read what I wrote? The Biden administration did something, but by far not enough. I showed the statistics, more and more people get poor and have problems, while the rich continually gets richer. If it is all the economy, why have only the working class to take the burden? That is something policy can do something about, that is what Bernie Sanders called out. Harris couldn't do anything yet about that, she wasn't president. She did indeed though find nothing worthy to change over the Biden administration.
Sure, but most is counted. And lets concede, yes maybe some former democrats now voted Trump. I assume more people came from non-voters, but that is just an assumption. The fact stays, that the majority of vote the democrats lost didn't go over to Trump.
2. Both campaigns had ads about pretty much everything. The Harris campaign had 1 billion dollar to burn. But what was the main messaging here? Working class? Nah. That barely made a dent. And given that under the democratic administration of Biden the working class had to suffer the economic downfall and not the rich, people got fed up to begin with. In that surrounding the messaging just wasn't convincing. There should have been more and bolder proposals.
3. The gaslighting is strong with you. I didn't pick up any right-wing propaganda. I cited Bernie Sanders, Mike Figueredo, Kyle Kulinski, Hasan Piker - actual left wingers. Not the center-right of the mass of the democratic party you are going so hard to bat for. You want to deny that any fault lies with the Democrats and that they lost big parts of the electorate because they don't care for them. You are telling people that live a harder live because of their circumstances that they should suck it up and they are being idiots and should vote dems - without expecting more than a bare minimum. You go on to state points what you make out as reasons declaring it as facts. In denying people their reality you are actually the one helping the right, and you keep on doing so. If that is indicative of the democratic party, than probably the better course of action is not to try to reform the dems, but actually create a left-wing workers party. Because it is evident, that the current far-right Reps and center-right Dems are leaving behind more and more of the country. There is a lot of space left of them. |
1. You are asking very stupid questions here. Harris was the presidential candidate and talked about the policies she will introduce once she is president. She told people that inflation has come down, but that isn't enough yet. She has said that over and over again during her campaign. You are clinging to her one isolated statement she made on The View and take that as her consistent message during her campaign, but that statement was an answer to the question what she would have done differently if she were president during the Biden term. It wasn't a question about what she will do during her term.
2. Yes, working class was the main message. How many American broadcasts did you watch as a German who isn't interested in sports? Most likely a grand zero. You hardly posted in this thread before the election either, so you are pretty much stumbling in here blindly and running with the limited information you like the most. That's why sundin is saying that you must live in an alternate reality, and he is right in saying that. Which leads to your conclusion...
3. ...that is inevitably off base because your premise what the Harris campaign was about is so wrong already. It's also rich that you accuse me of denial after deliberately snipping my post to leave out the part where I placed blame on the Democrats.

Just read the bullet points on page 3, that's what Harris ran on.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
