Trump has no power to “decree” that voters must present ID or to end mail-in balloting. But that doesn’t mean he can’t at least try both. Under the Insurrection Act or some other dusty statute, he can declare a state of emergency. Then he can decide that said state permits, nay requires, him to take extraordinary measures. On October 5, say, that might mean outlawing early voting. By October 13, it might mean no mail-in voting. By October 29, a reminder that all voters must present ID to vote. And by Sunday, November 1, two days before the election—an announcement that all these “reasonable” measures have alas failed, and he is now forced, against his will, to postpone the election.
Because they didn’t realize how many idiotic left leaning Americans there are.
ftfy.
They knew that their base wouldn’t turn out for a candidate who supported a genocide. They decided to run one anyways. They thought making sure Israel could continue its genocide was more important than winning against Trump. But yeah sure blame the people who aren’t sociopaths.
What’s the number of voters who would have voted for Kamala if she had opposed the genocide but didn’t?
I can’t give you a specific estimate but the DNC tried to burry a report that showed Kamala’s support for Israel cost her key votes. That should tell you what you need to know.
That said you can also just look at the vote differences between 2020 and 2024. Kamala lost more votes than Trump gained relative to the 2020 vote counts. It’s clear from those results that democratic turnout was depressed in 2024 when the admin’s policy towards Gaza was one of the most obvious divides between democratic leadership and democratic voters.
