Anyways... Happy Ash Wenesday!

Not everyone voted Trump is a Republican and not everyone is MAGA. As we witnessed in last year's election, There were many voters who voted Democrat in 2016 and/or in 2020, but in 2024 did not vote Democrat. Die hard MAGA base is around 62 million people.  About 10-15 million combined democrats and independents voted Trump in 2024.

And do not discount that two of the democrats voting Trump in '24 were actually Democrat Presidential candidates in 2020 and 2024 with respectable base.

I speak on behalf of myself and those who voted democrats before but did not vote Democrat in 2024. There are various reasons. I outline the reasons based on what I could gather:

1- Inflation
2- Woke propaganda and agenda
3- Did we have a functional president? President's cognitive decline and the question of who was in charge
4- President's interaction with Press (Predesignated Press sources asking questions)
5- Gaza conflict and support without any serious efforts on Ceasefire
6- Global instability (Burma, Sudan, Afghanistan, Gaza, and Ukraine)
7- Deficit
8- Open Borders / unprecedented influx of illegal aliens
9- Woke initiative of decriminalization of any theft below $950 in states like California
10- Switch to Kamala without any primary (Some democrats called it undemocratic)
11- in-fight within the party
12- Questions on National Security, Chinese Baloons having field days
13- Infiltration of warmongers and Right Wing Republican Neoconservatives in the State Department
14- Dick Cheney becoming an Honorary man
15- USA weakened globally.
16- Biden Appeasing Iran ( Iranian democrats)
17- Kamala in hiding with no Press interview (except the ones staged)
18- Demonization of opposition (trump indictments, Tulsi Gabbard flight watch, RFK Jr grilled by fellow democrat house members)
19- NO viable Democrat candidate
20- Experience with Trump in the first term (minus covid) was not that bad afterall

I am sure there were more reasons, be my guest and add more..

At the end many had to make a choice between someone whom they experienced as apresident and ended up with a grade point average of (C- or D) vs a total Flunk (F) who got zero votes in the Primary. Democrats had nothing to offer except trashing the opposition. They were their own enemy.

I think Newsom is on a right track to get himself out of this quicksand.
