America???????????????????????????

This came out after the 2024 election debacle.

I wish the Dems had a good candidate who also just happened to look like Jason Staham with his shirt off.

Trump is tough- tough to listen to and tough to look at. Other than that he is a weak person. His lack of toughness seems obvious to me but I guess some people have the wrong idea about what makes for a strong leader. I liked Kamala Harris's formula: The strength of a leader is not about beating people down, it's about lifting people up.

Like Putin & Xi & Orban. He fawns over them like a schoolgirl at a K-Pop meet & greet.
I call him something else too but it probably wouldnt be allowed here.

But we HAVE to understand what a lot of people who voted for him were looking at & what they were thinking. WHY did so many Democrats vote for him? Independents?
I have my theories based on interactions with some of those voters. But again, I bring up a couple of those reasons HERE & I'll get flamed.
We just better learn that we cant please everyone if we want to WIN this year & especially in '28

(and or that whole scene / posse vibe ... ) Then a 'flash' guy like Donald - might not be quite so off-putting ...

What steps can ANY of us take to "resist Trump?"

The article doesn't say, but then links to a different article that...also doesn't say

But God help you if you bring a couple of them up.
But just wait; the GOP will be using these issues in ALL their ads in competitive races. They worked in '24. They could work again.
Independents & turnout wins races. Remember THAT

How about you focus on the young white males who, listen to ridiculous podcasters and influencers who are right wing stooges. Black males are wise enough not to become targets and they did their jobs and voted right. We have been targets for hundreds of years ,they have never stopped abusing us. White folks made this mess they must fix it. Oh yeah not all white people.

Please focus on your white brothers who voted for him in very large numbers. We have voted for dem candidates in the last elections but the majority of white men are still voting republican. You guys need to fix your problem and leave black folks alone.

while the second part - comes across shallow, and reeeeal shaky - just on the face of it.

(poor behavior/performance - is deserving of attention - and possible address? - wherever found .. )

They showed you the formula for effective protest but you have to step up and lead because they would love for black faces to be seen in the streets. We would get shot and there would be no sympathy. You must fight this regime but you must become uncomfortable.

is an egregious mistake. Full stop. (regardless the 'rationale' trotted forth .. )

Reid Hoffman and Mark Cuban will hate it but tough shit.

Many young minorities understand the Dems "anti-racist" stances are largely performative and won't make life more affordable.

Lean in hard to economic populism, wear the hatred of billionaires on your sleeve or we will continue the slow leakage of black and brown voters.

Economics will not stop minorities from being discriminated against. Economics becomes I want mine and screw everyone else.

This ‘bro culture is so stupid, yet it’s still getting embraced by meat headed young males, regardless of race.

Many of the USA ice hockey team members (fortunately, some exceptions) are a good example.
