After midterms, is this the end of polarization as we know it?

This is the end of the republicans. Now we can stack the court, add states and reopen the border. Amnesty for all migrants already here. Then we need to tax the billionaires 100% and provide universal basic healthcare for all. Cancel those tarrifs and send the polluting industries back over seas. We don’t want them here. Capitalism has ruined this country.

Congrats, America!! But if we look at the disaggregated percentages, only 43% of white males voted blue, which means that the majority of them voted red, to align with Trump and MAGA. Thankfully, the broader and most diverse number of Americans voted against Trump! If I may, let me also add this: i am a 67 yr old black woman from Atlanta and over the course of my 50 yrs of being in the workplace, I have CONSISTENTLY worked with white men like Trump. HE IS NOT AN ANOMALY. What has been typical is the notion of superiority and entitlement, which results in LIES being touted as TRUTHS; and work policies and procedures that should be fairly accountable to ALL, they'd  bend and flex for their own benefit; and void of a conscience, white men justified their wrong doings. Their  actions were not only EVIL but DUMB. Trump has shown the world that he is the antithesis of a base human being, rather than a superior one. Trump is void of basic core values that reflect a good human being. And lastly, although he has the instincts of jackel; he is, by far, as DUMB of a human being as you will find, which PUTS TO REST the ideal of superiority... thank you for reading

No, no, no! We are still heavily divided. Look at he numbers- about two thirds of us are still hyperpartisan nutjobs. Trump&#39;s approval rating is still thirty-two percent! FORTY-THREE PERCENT of Texans still voted for Ken Paxton, of all people. How could anyone vote for that crook? I&#39;d vote for the corpse of Richard Nixon before him.<br>You had it correct at the beginning- the right didn&#39;t show up, and the center shifted. That is indeed a powerful combination, but it doesn&#39;t mean that MAGA isn&#39;t out there. They just didn&#39;t show up. But they&#39;ll be back.<br>If the left wants to keep its advantage then it needs to change. Massively. Schumer and Jeffries need to go. Get new blood in power. Because it is the new blood that won, NOT establishment corporate Democrats. This was all done by the streetfighters who took no corporate or AIPAC money!<br>Stay focused on the economy and afforability. Don&#39;t go wild banning guns or forcing red states to let trans atheletes compete with natural girls in high-school and college. If some nine-year-old wants to play soccer with her friends, who cares? But at higher levels they are competing for real things like scholarships and sponsors, and that&#39;s their concern in those states. (Among other more asinine things.)<br>The winners all ran on ECONOMIC POPULISM. Be the workers&#39; party again and drop the neo-Marxism &quot;coalition of every minority&quot; platform instead of class- it&#39;s the economy, Stupid! I&#39;m NOT saying to abandon the minorities, but stop making it your entire platform- working ethnic minorities and LGBTQ have to afford groceries, too! Be the party for all Americans, not just the party for &quot;Anyone but straight white men.&quot; Fight that perception! Raise the federal minimum wage and roll back the tariffs. You can tilt at the Medicare for All windmill if you like, but it won&#39;t pass, unfortunately. With all of the new blood in state legislatures, though, you just might get an amendment passed to nullify Citizens United. Look at MoveToAmend dot org.

why? hahahaha because MONEY thats why. cause half of us care about trans. half care about church. half care about guns. half care about gay..... WE ALL GOTTA PAY THE BILLS. dont kid urself all the bulls*** falls away. cause none of that other stuff actually effects your lives. (for the most part)

Fareed Zakaria became a household name by repeating that democracy can only “catch on&quot; in economically developed countries: if the developing countries are &quot;prematurely democratized,” the result is a populism which ends in economic catastrophe and political despotism.

Not if your republic maintains the strategy of keeping your moronic masses daft. Educate your people like the rest of the west, and in a couple generations, if youre lucky, your crumbling empire may be able to thwart its accelerated downwards spiral.

Fareed and Ezra, two top media pundits who disparaged Dems for two long years now having to eat crow. Perhaps if the media didn’t sanewash and bothsides this fascist regime we might not have endured 2 solid years of abuse. Corporate media has cost us dearly, yet there is no urgency for media to have the same reckoning that the GOP got. They seriously need it!
