Good job Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, you are spot on.

Just who did she think she was going to reach with "we are going to have the most lethal military"? That's totally abandoning a significant base with that remark.
My jaw dropped when I heard her say that. I still voted for her but I knew she lost a lot of Progressives with that line. She came across as a war hawk but I don't believe she is one. She was told to talk like that so she wouldn't be perceived as soft.
Excellent analysis of what American Voters are going through by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor. Some Voters stayed home and the once who voted knew Trump is bringing no change. But wanted to give Democrats F YOU..

@@cpamfly6858I’m Jewish and against the occupation and genocide of my Palestinian brothers and sisters. I’ll never vote for someone who supports genocide and religious and racial bigotry.
A huge chunk of voters have always voted against the incumbent when there are economic woes. Whether or not it makes sense logically has never mattered. And when you add on the fact that Biden and Harris have supported a genocide for a year which has demoralized if not outright enraged much of the base, we probably shouldn't be surprised by these results if we're honest with ourselves.

A lot of the people that were keeping trump in check in his 2016 administration have been kicked out at this point Everyone coming into his cabinet are Yes-men who will do exactly what he wants. It's pretty scary that the guard rails are off this time
Sure, when I'm weighing up my voting options, as a person of the working class, I always think "which candidate is worse for me..." And then I vote for him. Perfectly sane and logical... 😐 It's totally about sexism, because the economic argument doesn't hold water when Trump has shown and proven to us who he is as a devotee of the rich.
@cev12 Kamala Harris was the worst candidate in modern history. There is nothing leadership about her. She's been getting by with help from others all her career.
And the Democrats care about the poor? Name one policy in the last 4 years that addressed this in any meaningful level. When you have a gap,then make it larger with hubris and arrogance, this is the results you can expect.
LOL, all the disasters you guys said would happen under the reign of trump, actually did happen under the reign of the cackla and the baked potato. The TDS doomsayers have no credibility.
We need the progressive community to generate more ideas for reaching the mass of people who are not involved and build the capacity to enact those ideas over the next two years. A couple of my ideas: If planning to move, people who love democracy but live in a solid red state could move to one of the swing states. (However, we need every democracy-loving person who lives in a blue state to stay there, so they don't turn into swing states.) Local democratic parties need to start doing regular community outreach activities (food drives, cleaning up parks, helping the poor and elderly) to become known members of the community so they will then be trusted by those same people when next election time rolls around. We need to build personal relationships with people. This past election, only one candidate's mother (local race) knocked on my door.
Arrogance: Sherrod Brown sending me a form letter last week (after months of contacting him) about why he supports the Israeli genocide of Gaza in occupied Palestine.
What was he supposed to do? If he'd spoken out, AIPAC would have targeted him with even more millions of dollars of ads. Now you have a Republican Senator that doesn't give a damn about you (Sherrod always did) AND fully embraces Netanyahu. 🤦♀️
That would be terrible tbh. As a conservative that's why I sat this election out. If he really wanted to be a great president for all he would do what he originally promised and Obama should've done and open all the borders between states and get rid of this monopoly big pharma has. That would lower alot of prices.
@@waynefoote3781 Cutting social security has been in the Republican budget since Paul Ryan. Rick Scott has mentioned it in the last four years, his plan would have sunsetted ALL federal legislation in five years. Scott at that time was Chair of the Republican Senators Committee. Joe Biden referenced this and famously trapped the R's on this in his SOTU union speech and made them promise not to cut it. Ron Johnson has advocated the same idea, that payments of Social Security and Medicare should be part of the annual budget proposal, nevermind that Congress often can't pass budgets timely. Social Security is the primary "entitlement" program. You've heard discussions about privatizing it? I assume? The Republican Study Committee budget released in March, earlier this year, proposed increasing the retirement age more. But all they really need to do is run up another 8.4 trillion in federal debt, like they did under Donald Trump. The inflation caused by more federal debt will make social security worthless. The argument that "people have worked all of their lives for that money" doesn't matter.
Keeanga said 18-29 year olds down 20 percent for Harris...that right there is a huge part of 15 Million. Also in 2020 there were 14 year olds, How many of them that turned 18 this year voted? And for who? That can be factored in. Thank you Ms. Keeanga Taylor for your views.

Poor and under served communities like Chicago. People complained about all the migrants coming to their communities. As resources were scarce and migrants were getting more than the citizens.
Yes, and Biden, Obama and Harris ignored it and therefore lost a small number of black voters. But by and large, black men and women overwhelmingly supported Kamala. We need to prep and give it another go in 4 years.
Isn't it hypocritical for people who themselves are the descendants of migrants from countries like Mexico complain about migrants? Last time I checked Harris won Illinois and especially Chicago. The massive amount of right anti immigrant votes are from states that have very little immigrants and where you may never see a single migrant
The people spoke! I think that part was powerful. I’m one who believes that people don’t change, they get changed! By outside circumstances beyond our control. People adapt to the winds of change by rebelling against it or taking advantage of the airflow. This election said no to some of our favorite issues. Because everyone is NOT onboard with our personal world views.
Basically, Latino men are beginning to vote like white men. Which is interesting because I read about this thing approximately five years ago. It was about prison culture and how they've been talking about yellow being the new white. Latinos were very interested in who was going to be next, and if it would be brown, so they would know who to align themselves with gang wise. So, it makes sense that it would be mirrored in society. Conversely, as each young Black generation is further removed from slavery and the Civil Rights Movement. It isn't memory for them. It is history. It's why there is such a push to stop teaching Black history in schools. You never learn that it's impossible to dismantle the master's house using the master's tools, if you don't get to read and learn about Audre Lorde.
as an African American man,I was told by a mexican female co worker that on the census she put down herself as white..she is darker skinned than I am...so that was a new reality for me to face...What a ever changing confusing world we live in..
You don't know what you're talking about concerning black men. ADOS folks are suffering from the Prison industrial complex! And Biden, Clinton, Harris formed the crime bill. I wish they would stop putting LATINOS with black Americans. We're totally different!
With the deflation that is coming will come massive layoffs.prices may come down marginally, but so will profits. Energy will become cheaper but life will become harder. The trade off will be immense for millions of Americans. Poverty will also go back up. We will deserve it. America does not want prosperity for all of us but for me alone . It will make life harder and many of them who lose will come back.

There seemed to be more enthusiasm for Kamala Harris this time, than there ever was for Biden in 2020, so what changed? There has been rumors of 9 trucks loaded with 9 million fake ballots supposedly being caught. I haven’t been able to confirm that.
A world in the hand of beasts.
What's shocking is that we are paying $3200 a mo for a one bedroom apt here in California.

Making true money comes from trusting one's neighbors. If you don't, then you won't.
Keeanga is SPOT ON. We need to hear from her more often
Correction: AOC was certainly not outspoken on Gaza. She sold out in the most deceitful manner.
She was afraid of AIPAC
Dreadful of you to say that. AIPAC is powerful. Dems need Jewish votes.

“It’s the economy stupid.” And so everyone votes for the person who will make it worse.
Really expecting a lot when our education system is held up by duck tape and bibles.
Democrats have made it worse for many. They ended pandemic relief. They enable the Palestinian holocaust. Current facts beats uncertain predictions.
A huge chunk of voters have always voted against the incumbent when there are economic woes. Whether or not it makes sense logically has never mattered. And when you add on the fact that Biden and Harris have supported a genocide for a year which has demoralized if not outright enraged much of the base, we probably shouldn't be surprised by these results if we're honest with ourselves.
That's not how people remember the economy under T. They remember things getting worse under Biden.
@@ProoGameR43 more like scotch tape
Always good to hear from John Nichols. His analysis on the political situation is always excellent.
Mr John Nichols stated that the young people didn't hear hardly enough about the Gaza issue and Climate change which were adversely NOT covered in great detail by the harris campaign...THAT was a Huge mistake Looking now at the turnout. Very enlightening Thank you Sir!
They have no comprehension of the depth of the issue.
How about all Senators and Congressmen, whether Democrat or Republican, actually getting out to talk to their constituents and not when they just need your vote? Senator Cruz lost my vote because I’ve never seen him in Houston and Congressman Crenshaw lost my vote because all he cares about are businesses!! Notice they want my vote but never come to my neighborhood!!
Not only did Harris and Dem leaders not talk about Gaza, they actively treated delegations which did like they were persona non grata.
LOL it's cuite that so many of you think you actually "elect" these people. LOL
Praying that whoever is really making the government work, keeps him in check.
A lot of the people that were keeping trump in check in his 2016 administration have been kicked out at this point
Everyone coming into his cabinet are Yes-men who will do exactly what he wants. It's pretty scary that the guard rails are off this time
Taylor is speaking ❤
Sure, when I'm weighing up my voting options, as a person of the working class, I always think "which candidate is worse for me..." And then I vote for him. Perfectly sane and logical... 😐
It's totally about sexism, because the economic argument doesn't hold water when Trump has shown and proven to us who he is as a devotee of the rich.
@cev12
Kamala Harris was the worst candidate in modern history. There is nothing leadership about her. She's been getting by with help from others all her career.
They gave their supporters the gift of fear. 😢
Do the poor and worker class think a Trump presidency will care for them? Or even listen to them?
It's crazy how many times people can fall for a pathological liar
And the Democrats care about the poor? Name one policy in the last 4 years that addressed this in any meaningful level. When you have a gap,then make it larger with hubris and arrogance, this is the results you can expect.
We know.
LOL, all the disasters you guys said would happen under the reign of trump, actually did happen under the reign of the cackla and the baked potato. The TDS doomsayers have no credibility.
Yes. The Dem elites only care about themselves.
We need the progressive community to generate more ideas for reaching the mass of people who are not involved and build the capacity to enact those ideas over the next two years.
A couple of my ideas:
If planning to move, people who love democracy but live in a solid red state could move to one of the swing states. (However, we need every democracy-loving person who lives in a blue state to stay there, so they don't turn into swing states.)
Local democratic parties need to start doing regular community outreach activities (food drives, cleaning up parks, helping the poor and elderly) to become known members of the community so they will then be trusted by those same people when next election time rolls around. We need to build personal relationships with people. This past election, only one candidate's mother (local race) knocked on my door.
Arrogance: Sherrod Brown sending me a form letter last week (after months of contacting him) about why he supports the Israeli genocide of Gaza in occupied Palestine.
What was he supposed to do? If he'd spoken out, AIPAC would have targeted him with even more millions of dollars of ads. Now you have a Republican Senator that doesn't give a damn about you (Sherrod always did) AND fully embraces Netanyahu. 🤦♀️
So vote for Trump then. Makes sense.
Praying that Elon Musk doesn’t get him to really cut Social Security and Medicare.
That would be terrible tbh. As a conservative that's why I sat this election out. If he really wanted to be a great president for all he would do what he originally promised and Obama should've done and open all the borders between states and get rid of this monopoly big pharma has. That would lower alot of prices.
I hope they do cut social security. America deserves that.
@@cpamfly6858 Really? How so? people have worked all of their lives for that money. Why should that happen then?
@@cpamfly6858the Dems spend us into oblivion so social security is insolvent
@@waynefoote3781 Cutting social security has been in the Republican budget since Paul Ryan. Rick Scott has mentioned it in the last four years, his plan would have sunsetted ALL federal legislation in five years. Scott at that time was Chair of the Republican Senators Committee. Joe Biden referenced this and famously trapped the R's on this in his SOTU union speech and made them promise not to cut it. Ron Johnson has advocated the same idea, that payments of Social Security and Medicare should be part of the annual budget proposal, nevermind that Congress often can't pass budgets timely. Social Security is the primary "entitlement" program. You've heard discussions about privatizing it? I assume? The Republican Study Committee budget released in March, earlier this year, proposed increasing the retirement age more. But all they really need to do is run up another 8.4 trillion in federal debt, like they did under Donald Trump. The inflation caused by more federal debt will make social security worthless. The argument that "people have worked all of their lives for that money" doesn't matter.
22:26 Biden and moral don’t fit in the same sentence.
Biden has an excellent moral compass. If working people want Trump they can have him. Goes to show why some people are poor. They are stupid.
They have allowed the wolf into the henhouse (putting it mildly)
Keeanga said 18-29 year olds down 20 percent for Harris...that right there is a huge part of 15 Million. Also in 2020 there were 14 year olds, How many of them that turned 18 this year voted? And for who? That can be factored in. Thank you Ms. Keeanga Taylor for your views.

Harris _guaranteed_ I would stay home this time by supporting what's happening in the Middle East. In fact, Americans since 2000 have been pushing me into what's coming: a different passport, this time one without blood stains.
Well, thanks for that. I hope you've read the mandate for leadership, because the Confederacy 2.0 is about to rise.
Wrong time for a protest vote, but I suppose you can take some consolation and knowing that you won't make that same mistake again, because there will not be a 2028 election.
@@robertwalton956 Not sure I object to the US turning on itself, either. Only way to stop the #1 superpower is from within, no outside force can manage.

Poor and under served communities like Chicago. People complained about all the migrants coming to their communities. As resources were scarce and migrants were getting more than the citizens.
How exactly did you come here?
Yes, and Biden, Obama and Harris ignored it and therefore lost a small number of black voters. But by and large, black men and women overwhelmingly supported Kamala. We need to prep and give it another go in 4 years.
Isn't it hypocritical for people who themselves are the descendants of migrants from countries like Mexico complain about migrants? Last time I checked Harris won Illinois and especially Chicago. The massive amount of right anti immigrant votes are from states that have very little immigrants and where you may never see a single migrant
Nah

Basically, Latino men are beginning to vote like white men. Which is interesting because I read about this thing approximately five years ago. It was about prison culture and how they've been talking about yellow being the new white. Latinos were very interested in who was going to be next, and if it would be brown, so they would know who to align themselves with gang wise. So, it makes sense that it would be mirrored in society. Conversely, as each young Black generation is further removed from slavery and the Civil Rights Movement. It isn't memory for them. It is history. It's why there is such a push to stop teaching Black history in schools. You never learn that it's impossible to dismantle the master's house using the master's tools, if you don't get to read and learn about Audre Lorde.
as an African American man,I was told by a mexican female co worker that on the census she put down herself as white..she is darker skinned than I am...so that was a new reality for me to face...What a ever changing confusing world we live in..
You don't know what you're talking about concerning black men. ADOS folks are suffering from the Prison industrial complex! And Biden, Clinton, Harris formed the crime bill. I wish they would stop putting LATINOS with black Americans. We're totally different!
With the deflation that is coming will come massive layoffs.prices may come down marginally, but so will profits. Energy will become cheaper but life will become harder. The trade off will be immense for millions of Americans. Poverty will also go back up. We will deserve it. America does not want prosperity for all of us but for me alone . It will make life harder and many of them who lose will come back.
