I imagine it has to be a tad surprising for constituents in both parties that Trump is (close to?) winning the popular vote; Republicans haven't won the popular vote since 2004

People vote for higher ideals (e.g. "preserve democracy") when they are already comfortable in the status quo

Harris campaign was effectively asking for a _promotion_ (VP -> president) based on the last term and turns out majority of the population, i.e. not just the electoral college, vehemently disagrees

Wonder whether Democrats would have been better off bringing on a totally new candidate who could point to errors in the Biden Harris administration instead of Harris who had to defend Biden throughout the campaign

as Michael Scott taught us

if the economy isn't doing well, nothing else matters

haha classic michael scott wisdom! 😂 sometimes his quotes hit harder than you'd think. hope things turn around soon! 🤞
