There are some truly terrible takes on why Kamala lost. Bernie Sanders laid into Democrats and he hit the nail on the head while he was trashing the Dems. He said Dems lost because they left the working class. 20% or black men and 45% of Latino men voted for Trump because the economy isn't working for them.
As much as I think Trump is a piece of shit, I sympathize with this view. When it comes down to it, your ability to put food on the table is priority number one.
This is a wake up call for the Dems. They can no longer count on votes from minorities just because of identity. If this Dems are smart (they aren't) they will run a true populist in 2028. By 2028 the myth that Trump cares about working people should have become evident to everyone. Trump will have spent 2024 to 2028 governing like a typical Republican / Bush Jr. / Romney clone. By 2028 most Americans will have realized they were duped by a fake populist Trump and be resentful of having been conned.
