I disagree with this:

> I think people voted for Trump because Trump was able to convince them that Politics is easy, that strong men can fix everything, and Americans won't be convinced as easily to vote for Democrats.

If it wasn't Kamala or Biden, the Democrats may have won. But only if:

* They rejected the trans ideology (at least to the extent that they play in womens sports / be in women's locker rooms).

* get tough on crime

* get tough on immigration without some fake border bill

* get tough on drugs

* stay strong on environment

They would have won so easily.

I don't think so. I understand what you're trying to say, and I don't think I disagree with the essence of what you're trying to say, but... Why vote for a Democrat to do those things, when overwhelmingly people think Republicans are better on those things? I don't think anyone would have bought it, I don't think the senate or house would support it, and if you wanted people to think Democrats were good on those things, it would take decades of changing to make people think you actually were.

Because people would have rather had those fixes and stayed with their party and not had the explosive figure of DT.

The democrats were SO BAD that many people couldn't stand the extreme leftists policies that even DT was worth voting for.

If they had gone more moderate, ditched both Biden and Kamala, we would have a president Newsom right now. Also, as it turns out, Newsom's teen son is a huge Charlie Kirk fan - which has been influencing Newsom.
