Check the statistics for white women :)

And this is why I choose the tree, you don't even ask why, you just react

That is why people in general are abandoning the democrats

I don't understand how that tracks. Please elaborate.

American democrats care a lot about women.

American women, that is. Middle east women can get bombed with the white phosphorus they paid for. Foreigners aren't even people in their mind.

Ah yes, that is why they vote for the guy that explicitly said that Benny should hurry up and finish the job

That's conspiracy to commit genocide. The dude should have been arrested if the US was respecting human rights.

But hey, that's way too much to ask. As I said, the yank only care about their own ass. Now have a taste of your own medicine lmao

Him, or the people who funded the genocide until now.

It makes no difference really. Americans democrats are cowards who do not want to fight against fascism, they just want to externalize it to the middle east. It's really no better.

At least trump will hurt americans.

Just give up humans, you have no future, you are not viable as a species.

God, the whole of Lemmy is such a meme right now; the majority of women voted Trump as well!

Lmao!...

I think the ones who didn't vote for Harris are desperately rationalizing to blame Trump on somebody besides themselves.

[–] leadore@lemmy.world 13 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

The majority of White women voted for him 53% to 45% (not sure what percent of those are in the evangelical christian demographic).

Women overall voted against him 53% to 45%. Funny how those numbers were the exact opposite. Anyway it was a smaller margin than Dems were hoping/expecting from women.

Yeah but only 39% of bears voted Trump.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

no, 20 million Americans withheld their votes.

that greasy orange fuck actually lost votes.

Turnout was still pretty high compared to historic numbers.

2020 had some of the easiest voting rules in US history, with universal no excuse mail in.

Democrats were more likely to mail in votes than Republicans. So (largely Republican) states cracked down on mail in voting shortly after the election.

The participation plunge you're seeing is largely the result of that decision

This isn't going to be popular, but part of the problem is not acknowledging that 42%. It's fucking insulting, frankly. Plenty of women voted for the bear.

[–] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 71 points 20 hours ago (39 children)

52% of white women voted for trump.

Chances are that many of the people crying about men voting trump, are part of a demographic that mostly voted trump.

Trump apparently won the popular vote anyway. Most of everyone who voted, voted trump. But let's focus on men and then be surprised that young men who are very insecure about themselves anyway, feel attacked by the left and choose the right.
