So why was this post laughed off?
Well it was wildly optimistic! (Gave Georgia to the Dems).
So why was this post laughed off?
C'mon man you hedged by posting two mapsIt got laughed off because of the person who posted it. I can't tell whether or not gothuevos is less tiring to read now that Trump did actually win, or if the despair gothuevos had before the election is now shared and I no longer find their posts tiring in the same vein.
I mean, if we're going by this thread, I guess I "won" with the closest map. Sure, I posted two maps, but my "Trump wins" map is only missing WI.
Additionally, I stated months ago that Trump would get close to 80m votes and got roasted for it.
Yeah, I couldn't help the two maps hedge. Giving in to the thought that the US would once again choose the objectively worst person for President was too much.C'mon man you hedged by posting two maps
Yeah I got shit on for saying the DNC should have pulled the plug on Biden and had a real primary because Trump was going to beat him thanks to the economy being so shit for so much of the working class and all I got in response is greatest economy evar you dumbfuck! Though much worse is how many people still insist Kamala was such a great choice. IDK maybe you should run someone who could win a single primary in the general?
IDK I always expect the worst out of the United States and it usually turns out to be correct. Completely lost any faith in this nation when no one went to prison for the 2008 crash that robbed the millennials of ever being able to have the kind of success gen X and the boomers had and it just keeps getting worse with housing and education prices spiraling out of control.Yeah, I couldn't help the two maps hedge.

I suspect Democrats were going to lose no matter what they did with Biden/Kamala or a primary. As we can see once again, American voters for the most part do not understand how the federal government works.C'mon man you hedged by posting two maps

Why don't you tell us what the photo means? I'm pretty sure land doesn't vote.
Coincidentally....
Yeah I LMAO'd when one guy here said a month ago that he had faith Murican voters would ultimately do the right thing. I guess people actually believe the old BS Churchill quote. Maybe not anymore they won't...IDK I always expect the worst out of the United States and it usually turns out to be correct.

Yea, but look at all that land mass.Coincidentally....

The only reason I'm responding with the population distribution map is that the areal map makes the US look incredibly conservative, when that's far from the truth. (Conservatives love ignoring this fact and post the above to show just how red the US "is").
"One acre, one vote" is closer to what the founding fathers had in mind than the current system.Yea, but look at all that land mass.
I think there is a solid chance if it was a straight white male candidate with the same campaign they would have gotten a few million votes more than Kamala and definitely enough in the right places to have won this
Did you not hear Kamala say a million times about stopping price gouging on groceries and day to day items by corporations due to the high prices of things [due to greedflation]Even acknowledging price of eggs is too high and you want to target the corporate greedflation would have helped..
But they couldn't upset their donors could they?
Yup, MSM even commented that it sounded like "price controls" and it would never happen in the U.S. (POTUS doesn't have that kind of authority.)Did you not hear Kamala say a million times about stopping price gouging on groceries and day to day items by corporations due to the high prices of things [due to greedflation]
she never said greedflation but she said the rest.
I wonder if the Trump Congress will revoke the ability to negotiate those 10 drug prices. I know many want to.Yup, MSM even commented that it sounded like "price controls" and it would never happen in the U.S. (POTUS doesn't have that kind of authority.)
Also, which administration capped the price of insulin and forced big pharma to negotiate drug prices with Medicare in the near future?
I doubt it, but if Repugs ultimate goal is to cut entitlements, it would make strategic sense to start here and see how the populace reacts to it. Harris "held serve" with senior voters, so that isn't where we lost. So even if Dems made a big improvement in that vote because Trump fucks them on drug prices, it's all the low-propensity voters that would be unmoved.I wonder if the Trump Congress will revoke the ability to negotiate those 10 drug prices. I know many want to.
So DTrump won, KHarris lost. Will make a post with a map showing votes by population density.
that map is both very cool and difficult to read. i guess the data is done by voting district, and that's why some areas are so small? like, denver, SF, ATL, detroit, philly, chicago, DC have "smooth" appearances. houston, SLC, boston, and basically the entirety of the florida panhandle look like a million tiny sticks stuck in the air.https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/interactive/2024/2024-election-vote-map/ (interactive map)
Votes by population density.
