Summary

Democrats are grappling with Donald Trump’s decisive victory, which included popular vote support and wins in traditionally Democratic regions.

Analysts suggest that Trump’s appeal lies less in specific policies and more in his embodiment of resentment and populist anger.

While some blame Harris’s choice of running mate, media influence, or Biden’s timing in stepping aside, many argue that Trump’s support reflects a desire for his “tough-guy” rhetoric and promises of “social revenge.”

Despite the potential consequences, Trump’s supporters expect him to hurt others without affecting them.

Trump’s second term will likely bring about the destruction of the rule of law and the expansion of his power, leaving voters to confront the reality of his actions.

    Yeah, it’s crazy. As a general rule, Democrats/liberals, including myself, want everyone to have a good life, including a job with dignity, a good work/life balance, a rounded and truly liberal education, healthcare, clean air, clean water. I even want that for these redhats.

    And how do they react? They want to see the world burn and their perceived “enemies” tortured/killed.
