Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is pretty credible and your evidence against it is weak, given that it would do them both harm by trying to use it against the other
Also musk did claim the election was stolen in his crash out a few months ago
Yeah musk has actually admitted to it
I would love to see the evidence you have supporting this (we can skip over how trump, musk, and big balls himself haven't blabbed) and I desperately hope you aren't someone else who is going to link to a god damned Chris Titus podcast.
Because all the analysis on demographics and survey results very much paint the picture of a hateful and racist plurality coming up against apathy and stupidity.
search for "this will hold" and see if anything moves you there.
The intersting thing to me is the discrepancy in the split between president & downballot voting between mail in and polling-station votes. It's very different.
the other thing is winning every swing state and 88 counties (88, get it) while Dems flipped none. And the claim everything is "just under" the mandatory recount levels.
Yeah could just be we suck but it's possible we're also stupid.
First result for "This will hold" is a blog with the tagline "The truth they're not telling you". So... could you point me to actual data rather than making me read through the raving of a lunatic? I mean, this is clearly a big deal so there must be something solid, right?
Again, actually look at analysis of the demographics. https://catalist.us/whathappened2024/ is a good breakdown but it mostly can be summarized as "men are monsters. whites and hispanics continue to be religious"
As for the rest: I am not even going to pretend "the nazi number came up so it must be rigged" is worth responding to.
Hahah - probably not, but I wouldn't convince you of anything anyway. Everyone wants the final tally/result I-can-read edition, I know. That usually takes awhile (like in the JFK assassination for ex . oh wait, no bad example. Anyway)
Hm - I'd like to see that, do you remember where you saw it? The person who voted for AOC and Trump is a seriously confused or stupid individual but that's not saying much I know.
Comments aren't a good forum for the topic, it really needs a community channel but; it is what it is.
No. If you actually presented data I could read and try to understand that. Rather than just "listen to this blogger I like and vibe your way to The Truth for only 15 dollars a month"
And a quick google (well, actually kagi) of "AOC supporters voted trump" brings up https://www.newsweek.com/aoc-supporters-donald-trump-split-ticket-reasons-establishment-1983849.
I mean... it is a recurring problem when people refuse to consider facts or evidence and just run on vibes and whoever says what they want to hear.
Ookay, I mean I wouldn't call an Instagram post "a lot of outreach" and the data set limitations are obvious but whatever.
Social media replies = discrepancies totally explained? No. Interesting, but no.
And New York wasn't a swing state, so kind of a moot point overall on the question of swing state voters.
