Trump weakens Democrats’ coalition (minorities & young people!)

Black voters — men and women — have been the bedrock of the Democratic Party, and Democrats have had a strong pull for Latino voters. It’s been the same with young voters.
But preliminary data from AP VoteCast, an expansive survey of more than 115,000 voters nationwide, suggested that the groups shifted in Trump’s direction.
Voters under age 30 represent a fraction of the total electorate, but about half of them supported Harris. That’s compared to the roughly 6 in 10 who backed Biden in 2020.
Slightly more than 4 in 10 young voters went for Trump, up from about one-third in 2020.
Another shift that emerged was among Black and Latino voters, who appeared slightly less likely to support Harris than they were to back Biden four years ago, according to AP VoteCast.

These gains must not be taken for granted.

Democrats weakened their relationship with these groups.
And they don’t own them. They aren’t “their” demographics. I think this view is exactly what weakened them with these groups.

...suggested that the groups shifted in Trump’s direction.The word usage in that comment suggests they don't believe their own survey.
They either did or they didn’t.

2020 Biden had over 81 million votes. 2024 Harris has 65 million votes. WHERE did over 16 million democrats votes go? Where did 20% democratic voters go? Interesting question……..

It’s a continuation of the “Manifest Destiny” philosophy. The superior elites need to look after some people.

When AP says: "WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump scored a decisive victory in a deeply divided nation."
It is over. Trump has won. Efforts of the Left to steal this election between now and inauguration are futile.
Without the old Progressive Dominant Medai, of which AP is a critical part, they cannot pull off another coup.

2020 election was fraudulent. Pretty obvious.

If the GOP can continue to build support among Hispanic voters, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer will go down and build the border wall with their bare hands.

It is pretty clear that there never were actual voters associated with those 16 million ballots.

Bingo we have a winner! Lucky for you we can now say this without fear of investigation, trial and prison!

The obvious fraud in ‘20 will not be discussed. Only here and only a little.

Time to call for Joe to leave and Trump to start early. Joe is mentally incompetent, Harris lost, so time for calls for Trump to start tomorrow! You know it’s exactly what Libs would do given the opportunity!
Democracy is TOO important to wait 90 days! Trump needs to protect the Country NOW!
