It is still early and I have no idea how this will shake out, but maybe we all owe Hillary a big apology. Maybe she was never the problem and maybe Trump was always going to win 2016.
People laughed when I said Trump was the best Republican candidate in 2016, even after the election.

Biden should've picked a white running mate or at least someone like Cory Booker. Let's be real, people.

Biden-Harris wins, but closely.....

If Biden retires in '24, Harris needs to do better with black men.......



On ABC News, they were discussing Biden's weaknesses with black voters. As a black man myself, I detest Kamala Harris, and voted for Biden in spite of her. This is definitely an area of concern for Democrats moving forward.

All of my African-American friends hate Kamala Harris for her "political blackface" of sorts. But the problem is the (largely white) elites in the Democratic Party see her and thinks she checks demographic boxes, and decides she's the future. Cory Booker would've been a far better choice to energize black voters.

Never underestimate the stupidity, selfishness, and downright blindness of the American people.

The only bet I placed on the election tonight was Biden to win Arizona. I either didn't like the odds or couldn't stomach the uncertainty for any other race. Hopefully that plays out.

Not sure if this has been said on here, but the NYT has projected Graham as the winner in South Carolina, which is what I expected to happen. Jaime Harrison, nevertheless, ran a very strong campaign.
Yeah, it is unfortunate. After hearing him speak, and learning more about him, I had actually come to like Harrison.

How the F#CK do you look at the last four years, and especially this year, and say "yeah i want more of this"
Because you don't follow politics that much, and see the politicians and media you've hated and distrusted for years attacking Trump on a daily basis, and see that as a good thing. It's not about owning the libs, it's closer to, "If the elites don't like what he's doing, Trump must be doing a good job."

I turned off MSDNC hours ago. It was getting intolerable, sorry. Now that Tucker's gone to bed, I'm watching Fox and occasionally flipping to the Beeb.

I wonder what will come of Puerto Rican statehood if Trump wins. Most people here assumed they would be admitted under a Biden administration.
The fact that Atlas was even discussing admitting new states under a Biden administration says everything you need to know about the quality of #analysis here.
