Fantastic thread. Governments of all ideological persuasions suffered losses amid post-COVID inflation. This is why election outcomes aren't ideological mandates. Biden didn't win because voters wanted liberalism. Trump didn't win because voters wants conservatism.
Decided to go through this systematically. Incumbent government performance in wealthy democracies since March 2022, when Ukraine invasion really spiked things upwards: 🧵

Jill Stein has been radio silent. I guess she’s done fighting for Palestine now. Shock surprise.

BREAKING NEWS: Black voters are experiencing the same economy everyone else in America is experiencing. And still, Black voters did their Black jobs at the voting booth.

OK Buckle up, here's a thread & a half, really all written just to get it off my own chest but you're welcome along for the ride.... 🧵
Slightly reluctant to ask, but seen lots of Tweets about how it was young white men wot won it for Trump but can't find any actual voting numbers. Has anyone got them? I've seen polls from about a week before but nothing from the actual day. Anyone?

if you are someone who was able to overlook the genocide and cast a vote for kamala harris, then you already understand how a conservative was able to overlook Trump's extremism to vote for him.

in retrospect, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords really might've been a better basis for a system of government.

Something to ponder as you head out to vote today, for free. In the Library's Rosa Parks Papers collection, there's a receipt for the poll tax she had to pay to vote in Alabama in 1956. Poll taxes, a Jim Crow-era voter suppression tool, were not abolished federally until 1964.

They support Trump because "he tells it like it is", yet they've spent 9 years telling us, "That's not what he meant." "It was a joke; lighten up." “You're taking it the wrong way." “He's just trolling the libs, and you have TDS." Stop sane-washing the insane.
