Arky, I have been reflecting all day (working like a whirlwind in my sewing room – the whirr of the machine is oddly comforting) on your comment of a couple of days ago, when you spitballed a Trump win in 2020 against what actually happened.

Pence as a possible contender in 2024, weak as. So a shoo in for the Dems. The ME at war, Russia and Iran proxying, Xi eyeing off Taiwan.

Sometimes the things we despair of are what’s for the best.

I’ve had my heart in my mouth all day, and it’s not really over yet.

I reckon that Trump’s done a deal with Dementia.

Here’s my take: seems like Trump’s struck some kind of backroom deal with Dementia. Out of nowhere, Trump recently said he’d pardon Bunter Hiden—a real curveball, especially since Dementia has already said he wouldn’t.
Feels like there’s something fishy going on here, maybe a little cleanup effort on those federal charges against Trump.
Just a gut feeling, but who knows?

Not bad … Who gives a shit about Hunter’s drugs and guns. Pardoning him in exchange for Joe Biden’s spanner in the works, and then looking magnanimous and reconciliatory doing so is a win/win.

And still allowing him to have the corruption and related to clean up with – possibly given the no prosecution – from Hunter and even Joe and so go after the big / deep state players.

Similar numbers everywhere.
This means Trump has 48.4% of the total, and Kamal-toe has 45.6% of the total. The remaining 5% would have to break 73% to Kamal-toe to win.

It is packed with insights, especially from Don Jr who is a walking data disc.

Some amusing scenes as well such as MTG absolutely excoriating the Georgia GOP for providing financial incentives for Hollywood to establish a film industry in Georgia. There is eyewatering discussions of campaign finance, for example Hollywood funding the opponent of hated Cruz to 300% of Cruz’s total raisings.

Thank you Dover and Cats for an entertaining and informative day of commentary. It has been a real nail-biter.

Earlier in the week I said I’d be tight lipped about the poll because there is no depth to the depravity of people who think they can lord it over others just because they can.

Still not out of the woods. Perhaps others who understand the numbers and stats can feel confident, but those midnight images of boxes of “votes” remain seared into my memory.

Anyway, this is the only site where robust comments and humour combine to make the whole thing bearable. Thanks again.

-Grandstanding Trump claims he was spared by God as Pennsylvania all but assures a win.

-If George Washington was the father of American democracy, DonaldTrump is its undertaker.

-Reelected Trump would set up possible clash with Australia on tarrifs.

-For women 2016 was bad, 2024 hurts even more.

Can tell them right now that they have the same aspirations of anyone. That of a good working life, house ownership and being rewarded on your merits.
In Trump these people see that and have voted accordingly.
The other point the talking heads miss is that Harris is a truly revolting person. Got where she was because dusky vagina and a penchant for sucking dick. Ask Willie Brown.
An empty suit giving empty promises. You had 4 years as border czar to stem the flow of illegals yet they rose every year. You don’t get to cast yourself as the challenger after 4 years of stunning ineptitude as Vice President.

Harlequin Decline, one of those articles was by Jacqueline Maley:

The women didn’t win it.

Despite high hopes that women, particularly college-educated women and young women, would turn out in numbers big enough to win the election for Kamala Harris, America has passed on its second historic opportunity to elect a female president.

If we thought the desolation in 2016 was bad, when a fresher Donald Trump trounced the highly qualified Hillary Clinton, it is worse now.

The dire consequences of abortion bans for women’s health are now evident, and will continue under a Trump presidency.

The Trump campaign amounted to an open-carry licence to misogyny and contempt for femininity.

It gave social permission for the worst kind of sexism and nastiness towards women.

It didn’t matter.

Trump’s closest advisers are mostly men.

The cabinet appointees he is likely to make will be mostly men.

He has talked about giving former independent presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy, an anti-vaxxer, dominion over “women’s health”.

Apart from being a convicted felon, Trump has now been accused by about 27 women of sexual misconduct.

The fact that this barely rated a mention on the election trail is deeply dispiriting.

But it seems perfectly apposite – because it’s clear that the critical mass of American voters didn’t care.

The Republican campaign was soaked with misogyny, from the speaker at the Madison Square Gardens rally who spoke of Harris’ “pimp handlers” to Trump’s own remarks about Republican-turned-Harris supporter Liz Cheney being gunned down by a firing squad.

At a rally this week, Trump stopped just shy of calling former Democrat House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi a “bitch”.

The baying crowd supplied the word for him.

Other common epithets he uses for women include “crazy”, “unhinged” and “nasty”.

His running mate J.D. Vance has shown a long and creepy preoccupation with female fertility.

Vance’s remarks about “childless cat ladies” who don’t have a stake in the future of the country were widely reported, and deemed disastrous for the Trump campaign.

They didn’t make a dent in it.

In a 2020 podcast interview, during a discussion about the benefits of grandparents helping to raise kids, Vance appeared to agree with the host when he said, “that’s the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female”.

Not only did the Trump campaign not seek to hide its rank masculinity, it revelled in it.

It was the secret-sauce-special-ingredient that was deployed to lure Trump-leaning men out to vote.

It is too early to conduct a post-mortem, and too early to parse the electoral results county by county.

But it seems clear that the pro-Trump result is reasonably uniform, a red sweep across the United States, uninterrupted by issues affecting women.

Harris needed white women to turn and turn out for her – they account for about 59 million voters, the biggest bloc in America, according to The New York Times.

In the 2016 election, only 45 per cent of white women voted for Hillary Clinton.

Most white women voted for Trump in that election, and it seems the pattern was repeated in 2024.

Abortion was consistently rated in polls as one of the top three issues of concern to voters, behind the economy and immigration.

Since the overturning of Roe v Wade in 2022, abortion restrictions or outright bans have been enacted in 21 states.

That Supreme Court decision was made possible by Trump’s conservative judicial appointments, the fulfillment of a promise he made before taking office.

This time, if Republicans control the Senate, he could possibly appoint the majority of the court, paving the way for further fertility rights restrictions, not to mention incursions on the rights of LGBTQI people.

The abortion restrictions have resulted in disruptions in pregnancy care generally, the consequences of which have been widely reported.

Doctors report holding off giving life-saving medical care to pregnant women for fear they may be jailed. Women have been forced to carry untenable pregnancies. Women have died unnecessary deaths after being refused emergency obstetric care.

The election result is probably widely attributable to voters’ anxieties about the economy and abortion.

Misogynistic rhetoric and women’s rights probably don’t matter too much to many people struggling to pay bills and battling to keep a foothold in an inflationary economy.

But then there is the inkling that is so difficult to ignore.

It cannot be proven by any poll, but we all suspect it – America was not going to elect a female president, and not a female president of colour.

Not only did the women not win it for Harris, the woman didn’t win.

FMD.

An utterly parasitic point of view. Why would you assume that “women” would vote for Kamala? When you can’t even define what a woman is?

Perhaps if she’d shown a skerrick of courage, an iota of policy, an ability to enunciate a simple sentence, they might have listened.

The biggest insult? Julia Roberts encouraging women to lie to their husbands about how they would vote. What the hell? Every stupid stereotype and assumption about conservatives and their most cherished relationships displayed, then trampled on by the jackboot of the hive mind.
