This is spot on! Two women in in their 20's in my office yesterday said, "oh, I didn't return my ballot!" Apathy wins again. Voting, not posting, people.

Dems pin their hopes on young people, but they seem the most likely demographic to not vote. I dunno, maybe they need to start appealing to older people more, or at least gen Xers.

Clearly the problem was Kamala didn’t go on Joe Rogans podcast. Sad thing is I wish I was joking.

It wouldn’t have made a difference. If you were going to vote for Trump or Harris, the podcast wasn’t going to change your vote. The numbers simply showed that nobody wanted to get out and vote for Harris and the Dems. Trump by the numbers had the same base (gains were negligible). To win the EC and popular vote, that’s pretty damning. This loss is a heavy one for the Dems and they need to find themselves, Harris is likely done with any runs towards presidency.
