“The future is whoever can build the solution. The Democrats may have lost the election but they can still win the problem” @keds_economist nails the urgent need to develop solutions not for 12 months of inflation but 50 years of economic stagnation.

The full list of things Democrats tried to pass but were unable to deliver is super long: paid leave, the expanded child tax credit, minimum wage hike, public option, childcare, housing, union protections, pre-K, and on. They slowly died, almost entirely because of Manchin and…

The absolute raging fire has to be an Easter egg, right?

Trump and Biden meeting at the Oval Office in new video.



DOGE masquerading as a government agency (when it actually has no plans to ever become one) with a grey check because Musk can break his own rules is actually insidious propaganda.

Sanders is the second oldest Senator in Congress and TWO years older than Biden.

My election take: Trump won for many reasons, but class politics are the only path forward. (In other words, Bernie woulda won) theintercept.com/2024/11/12/tru…



Just a reminder: only Congress can establish a department, only Congress can allocate funding, and the Senate had to confirm appointments. Which Trump is currently trying to subvert with extended recess appointments. Severely weakening one of the checks and balances in gov.

The smallest margin since Bush v Gore 24 years ago. This is not a mandate for Trump and the Dems have to stop the handwringing.

Updated estimate: Harris 75.7m votes (48.5%) Trump 77.9m votes (49.9%) other 2.6m votes (1.6%) Total turnout 156.1m votes (vs 158.6m in 2020) Trump margin +1.4% Tipping-point state: PA (Trump +2.0%)



“Losing an election does not mean that you were wrong and they were right. I grew up watching my parents back candidates opposed to segregation. When those candidates lost, my parents didn't question if they were on the right side.”

I've been involved in winning presidential races and races that lost. One common thread is that everyone seems to have a reason why you won or lost which usually reflects a personal perspective or agenda. So here's mine: I think VP Harris ran a very good campaign that operated…



Gatorade is clearly a tool of the patriarchy because their bottles are impossible to open and it might be the last remaining reason to have a man.


Dems lost by the smallest margin of any presidential in 20 years. In a year where incumbents around the world are getting creamed. This is not a mandate for Trump or a reckoning for Dems. I’m done with the post morts. Time to move forward.


You know who’s gonna be well positioned in 4 years? The elected officials who stood between Trump and their constituents. We’re in an era of tough politicians who fight for their people. So far I only see 2 (and Newsom ain’t it).

I find this idea to be almost self-evidently absurd

Ohhhhh my god the election results mean Dems should pivot to adopting the exact policies you like in order to win in 2028? should we tell everyone? Should we throw a party? should we invite the Pod Save America guys??


Lots of hand wringing about how democrats need to reckon with how voters have “abandoned” them but Harris got more votes than Trump did in 2020 and Trump didn’t beat Biden’s number.

Updated estimate: Harris 76.2m votes (48.4%) Trump 78.5m votes (49.9%) other 2.6m votes (1.5%) Total turnout 157.3m votes (vs 158.6m in 2020) Trump margin +1.5% Tipping-point state: PA (Trump +2.1%)



Why it’s always and never about the economy

But the Pod Bros told me it was was Biden’s fault. “Every single governing party in the developed world that has stood for reelection in 2024 has lost”

The reason Dem governors and senators and house members won when Kamala didn’t is because Trump wins but nobody else. ‘22 was decisive - every election denier lost and almost all Trump endorsed candidates. His star power is intense but doesn’t rub off.

Mr Biden, I need you to stand up, straighten your back and make some things shake before your departure xoxo the women in america 💙
