Harris, not Biden (though I'd have voted for Biden again in a heartbeat if he'd stayed in the race). Too many people voted for 3rd party spoilers like Stein or didn't vote at all. Then there's the question of interference, and we may never know the extent to which it affected the outcome.
Most of American media is owned by psychopathic billionaires that with help of foreign adversaries successfully brainwashed majority of voters. Telling them that selfish billionaires are going to help the common man.
But can this be all?
I guess the explanation is to complex for this medium.
Really, brainwashing? So many people cannot be so dumb. There must be greed, fear, dellusion, playing into it.
America is one of the eldest democracies of the modern world, after all.
I bet it's a lot more. Empty promises, lies, fear of boogie man. Then there's insanely low ethical bar for GOP, while even the smallest of dirt on Democrats got blasted through megaphone.
We (liberals / progressives) fooled ourselves- relying on CNN, MSNBC to have objective news & a ~Dem-leaning perspective. Sirius 127 is the ~only progressive sat channel
vs ~100s of cable megachurch channels; InfoWars, Breitbart, Fox, AON, NewsMax, and ~ALL am radio.
MSM referred to trumpers as 'evangelicals'- there's a bunch of other common denominators- but the media took the easy way out. Call them christo-fascists? how dare they! White nationalists! never!!
But they cheer & nod yes for MTG, Tubberville, etc who assert the same.
Unfortunately we have a large population that felt church was the only education their kids needed. So they have no critical thinking skills. They’re also racist, so their prejudices make them easy to manipulate.
FOX and other networks. The enquirer. All our news agencies skew Republican now. Bluesky is great.
The mainstream media is responsible. They never gave Biden a chance. He had a hundred accomplishments that went unreported.
My grandparents marched to the polls to vote for Bill Clinton in the 90s. After 15 straight years of Fox News consumption, they are effectively brain washed. They are ardent Trump supporters, and it breaks my heart to see how totally debased from reality they are. It’s the same for many Americans

Sad thing is that instead of ~trump being an anomaly, this is an exhibition of just how screwed up the US is
~100 years ago .. still present & now empowered
They want trump to retain white entitlement .. yes, it's that simple.. Manifest Destiny etc
