There was also the cost of running twitter. Granted, his return so far has been about 50 bil and twitter still has a market value of like 40 billion, so it’s not like that asset has gone away. Like 4 billion in net costs to make 50 billion in two years is pretty solid return on investment…
That’s a real world example of what happens when you have self-driving (even in beta mode with some safety features turned off to prevent that from happening). Obviously the driver this manually override and stop the car before hitting the person. It doesn’t even need any searching: the story itself makes that clear if it mentions the car hit someone.
They wouldn’t? Trump didn’t get more votes than 2020. Kamala just got far less than Biden.
Most phone calculators lack things like graphs, statistical tests, etc. Really just for people who are quired to use Ti calculators or learned to use them in the past. Better apps imo exist (like numworks graphing calculator) if you don’t have platform loyalty
You can vote for someone against genocide for pres or just not vote for any candidate and still vote downballot.
If the downballot candidate hasn’t been actively assisting genocide and hasn’t been very publicly celebrating that, it probably helps with getting votes.
Would have been a lot easier to type this comment while squatting if I had a standing desk capable of squating instead of using my lap for my notebook
Good point. More than half of voters would have been accurate.
Only barely though. Its like 50.2%. But like another 48% voted for Kamala, so like that’s 98% of voters…
Stop giving bombs for genocide and stop telling people that the economy is already great so they should not ask for more and instead give popular policy positions that help people more than a week before the election/after early voting.
It still would be a mistake and would prevent some people from voting for him, but Bernie would at least compensate for it by actually supporting popular policies instead of the opposite and have some energy.
Still managed to make enough mistakes to offset Trump’s age.
I’d love to go away from this country and especially from this state. Probably should have done it back when Biden announced he was running for a second term.
Kamala was less popular as VP among democrats than Trump was as president among republicans. Yeah. Trump is awful. Unfortunately he has a base of awful people who favor that. Emulating that behavior doesn’t make someone popular among people who’d vote democrat.
How could anyone with a heart vote for someone openly defend unconditional support for mass murder of children?
If you only oppose genocide when the politician is nice to you, you’re not a leftist.
Not sure who you are talking about here. People who refused to vote for genocide regardless of the candidate aren’t conditionally against genocide: that’s the people voting for Harris. The same people who told trans people to shut up for pointing out the record lack of representation or support by the Harris campaign compared to other recent campaigns. Those aren’t people who are going to do anything to protect trans people. They just wouldn’t actively target them, so at least blue states would be relatively safe unlike what we got.
Harris threw the election. The Harris campaign is responsible for their own campaign and the DNC is responsible for picking such an historically unpopular candidate for their candidate without even getting input from voters.
Americans just weren’t convinced that Harris would do anything to improve their economic situation.
Why would they? She never proposed anything specific AFAIK except like 1 week before the election after early voting was already over. If she hadn’t avoided taking any policy positions except unconditional aid to israel, lower proposed tax rates for the rich than even Biden was proposing, continued fracking, no improvements to healthcare, and more lethal military/border while avoiding talking about abortion for months, maybe people would have reason for some hope for improvement.
How many Americans know about proposals about things like tax credits for parents or plan to expand medical care coverage under medicare (or was it medicaid?) to at-home care except the small percent who follow that kind of news.
I sincerely hope there is a future election where they have learned something from this. In the mean time, good luck everyone.
Given you’re expecting an apology instead of giving one, nothing was learned apparently.
Did McCain vote for Trump?
They’re going to die if they don’t pack up their entire lives and never see their family again
Hopefully that’s hyperbolic. Not saying its impossible (my state in particular has been building databases of trans people and definitely not for trans people’s benefit). Unfortunately, there’s a sizable chunk of the population who wanted trans people to suffer more.
They thought Harris was going to win.
Its a campaign that has been running on “fuck you, we don’t need your vote” messaging from day 1 towards some of its most loyal voting demographics. The fact that some where projecting it to be even been close was a miracle and was based on a great overestimation of turnout. Its not like Trump did significantly better than 2020.
But he insulted others. He hardly was as vitriolic towards his base demographic.
How is it a spin on the truth? Forced labor sounds a lot like slavery and they voted in favor of it. Just because some people justify slavery with a reason like “criminals deserve it!” or “but look at their skin color!” doesn’t change that they’re voting for slavery. Just because the criteria isn’t directly skin color (80% of prisoners are not non-hispanic white… so its pretty much is still forced labor based on skin color) doesn’t change it at all.
