He would have lost even harder.

… Unless you’re going to tell me her campaign was somehow unaware of this fairly widely published IMEU poll.
They were in a bubble of other blue-no-matter-who media and were assured by the consultants from Clinton's campaign and the Labour Party that they could ignore those polls.
So really, it would have taken a big enough push from the public that MSNBC became anti-genocide. Hypothetically it could have happened, but the Democratic base is too disorganized to pull that kind of bottom-up messaging coup off.
If Democrats knew they'd lose for supporting genocide,.they wouldn't have done it. It's precisely because blue-no-matter-who voters convinced them that they were invincible that they ended up losing. They thought they could bully the base into voting for them because enough of the base was willing to be bullied and proud of it.
On the other side, Trump is more likely to lose the war on Palestine.
Harris spent her whole campaign trying to win over Republicans! The campaign strategy was to take the Dem base for granted and focus solely on people who are swayed by the likes of Liz Cheney.
Because they're Redditeurs
Individual persons that happen to be Black, sure.
But to characterize this as "Black voters" paints a picture that there's some kind of large constituency of Black Trump supporters even though that's clearly not the case. It's a tiny minority of a minority population.
They burned a police station down. That's not something people do when they're too comfortable.
It was a revolutionary moment, there just wasn't an organized political force or party to take control of the situation and push forward an agenda. It was merely more of the same leaderless horizonalism that characterized the 2010s. That shit doesn't work, but that doesn't mean nothing else was possible. We won't have a revolution just because people are uncomfortable. It requires organizing, which is what we should be doing right now and immediately after Trump steals the election.
Harris has done a good job appealing to fiscal conservatives, she might have peeled some business owners away.
Down to 9% from 12% 🙄
There was never any real support among Black people.
Yeah, or steal it.
Oh, well I just think Republicans are going to continue being fascists even when Trump is gone.
Let's not obfuscate with "oligarchs" either.
They're the bourgeoisie. It's the same struggle now as it was 100 years ago.
