While millions will still vote for the Republican candidate, perhaps hating immigrants more than they love reproductive rights, the only certainty at this point is that many millions more will vote for Vice President Kamala Harris. In the latest ABC News/Ipsos national poll, the Democrat enjoyed a 14% advantage with women over Trump; among women with a college degree, that number rose to 23%; among women voters under 40, it rocketed to 34%.
…
That, in turn, is causing some MAGA commentators to break from their usual posture of feigned confidence to outright panic.
“Early vote has been disproportionately female,” Charlie Kirk, head of Turning Point USA and helping to lead the Trump campaign’s get-out-the-vote effort, posted on social media. “If men stay at home, Kamala is president. It’s that simple.”
Don’t do that. Don’t give me that kind of hope.
The Democrats will manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, never fear.
God I’m so worried about this.
Like Trump will go through the predicable steps of election fraud as perpetrated in 2020, and Dems will say “oh fiddlesticks he tricked us, oh well”.
Don’t worry, even if dems grab a trifecta they still won’t undo enough damage for us to actually progress.
They’d need consistent wins for the next 50 years to undo the last 70 years of republican policies.
Depends on the margins. There’s a huge difference between a 50 seat senate win and a 56 seat senate win.
Even if they get in, they’ll undo very little and change even less unless it serves their corporate and billionaire owners.
The goal is to ensure Trump doesn’t win to make things worse, that doesn’t make the Dems a force for positive change.
And yet they’re still better than giving trump another 4 years.
