🇺🇸 Discussion: General Election 2024, 🥥 VS 🍊

US News
This is actually kind of crazy though...the gap between the educated and educated, how they vote. Insane. We're being held hostage by morons.
The minority is held hostage by the majority in the country. Literally, that's democracy.

Now, 38.3% of people with a degree still voted for Trump, that isn't a so small numbers. It looks worse on the graphic due to electoral college votes.

I know plenty of dumbasses with degrees, but still. That everything would be more forward thinking in general with an educated population voting...sheesh.
 
Harris has surpassed Clinton's 2016 popular vote share 48.1% > 48.0%.

Trump's popular vote lead is now less than Clinton's 2016 leading margin 2.1 > 2.0.

Trump is slowly approaching only leading a plurality (<50%) but not majority of the people's vote.


Even Peter Thiel's ethically challenged crypto gambler Nate Silver thinks the electorate isn't as lost as it seems (he blasted Democrats for not cozying up to Joe Rogan earlier today):



Past 100 years: Electoral College % winners | with smallest popular vote margins [plurality or majority]
2016 Trump (R) 56.5% | -2.1 [neither P nor M]
2000 G. W. Bush (R) 50.4%| -0.5 [neither P nor M]
1960 Kennedy (D) 55.2% | +0.2 [P]
1968 Nixon (R) 55.9% | +0.7 [P]
2024* Trump (R) 58.0% | +2.0 [M]
1976 Carter (D) 55.2% | +2.1 [M]
2004 G. W. Bush (R) 53.2% | +2.5 [M]
2012 Obama (D) 61.7% | +3.9 [M]
2020 Biden (D) 56.9% | +4.5 [M]
1948 Truman (D) 57.1% | +4.5 [P]

* results not final

Many Republicans don't know the ACA is Obamacare either.

I would think/hope they would, especially when Trump claims that he didn't like it but reluctantly chose to still did his best to make it work anyway.
 
Nope. He'll deport the whole family, if they are all illegal or not.
 
Peter Thiel's Polymarket is a foreign/offshore company where only crypto owners can participate in. It's also possible that it can be gamed by Russia and other foreign governments. Technically U.S. citizens are banned from participating but it doesn't stop crypto criminals.

On the top floor of a luxe hotel outside the Republican National Convention, amid a coterie of neatly coiffed GOP operatives in tailored suits, one person stood out in his dark T-shirt and a mop of curly hair. That was Polymarket’s Shayne Coplan. The 26-year-old college dropout was introducing himself as the force behind the crypto-betting platform, which takes wagers on everything from election winners to whether the US will confirm the existence of aliens. At one point, Coplan’s schmoozing got him a seat next to Donald Trump Jr.

It's literally run by Republican operatives.
Peter Thiel and Nate Silver’s PolyMarket has added insurrection/courts to the list of their foreign crypto gambling website.

Based on how female candidates have fared in the Presidential elections, both this year and 2016, I can't imagine they'd choose someone like AOC in 4 years. It will probably be another white male.
