The incredible thing about Trump’s win is that he increased support across major demographics since the 2020 election.

The biggest swings being people 18-44, Asian and Hispanic voters. Harris only saw slight gains in college educated women and people 65+ from Biden’s win in 2020 but it’s so slight it might as well be within a margin of error.
It turns out I’ve been living in a bubble the past few years while everyone else was like “Trump? Why not give him another try?”

@carnage4life It's almost entirely an anti-Biden (or rather, perceived anti-Biden economy) vote. This is now the second obvious case of a decent liberal, elderly person who aged into a "Only I can do it!" hubris mindset and didn't step aside in time. In the case of Biden, he promised to only run once as a "transitional" figure, but hubris got the best of him. The other obvious case was Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who refused to resign in a timely manner and inadvertently set the stage for the MAGA-takeover of the Supreme Court. Both well meaning people, who didn't know when to give up the car keys. And we're all paying for it.
