If Trump wins, you are correct with the analysis. They should have had a much clearer plan as to what to do re Biden. There was no way he could stand again at 82 (much like Trump won't be able to in 4 years). It's ludicrous.

They should either have started building Harris up earlier, or had a clearer plan as to who replaced him.

That lack of planning, and the supporting the Genocide in Palestine is what will cost them of it doesn't go their way.

Honestly mate outside of Michigan which it doesn't look like he would have needed anyways then I don't think the US voter gives a flying damn about foreign policy when it comes to voting - poles have it usually around the 2-5% mark as an important factor /issue (and those likely will be tied into one party ideologically already).

The Trump line about America first etc ties into that voter thinking about foreign policy way better than the Democrats line that it matters to the voter.

Think outside the US we seem to think naturally that it's an important issue - as foreign policy effects us most directly - but furbthem average American it really doesn't seem to be a major issue (I'll make exception for the GoT yanks as generally they are more works view - given they support a god awful English footy side ked by a gravel chewer to be expected really)

I don't think Palestine had much or anything to do with it tbf. When they sift through the voting patterns, I suspect the through line will be: Blokes just didn't want to vote for Kamala.

Whether that was because she is a woman, they preferred Trump or they are susceptible to the mountains of unchecked right-wing nonsense they have been bombarded with the over the last decade (a few previously normal lads on here have noticeably put the tinfoil hats on in recent times) it's hard to say. But whatever way you slice it, she struggled to get the male vote
 
Come on, don't you think it's a bit rich giving the yanks big ones for electing Trump , again, when you only have to look at the last 5, 6, 7 Prime Ministers?

Our biggest shame is Ardern getting a second term but wow, you lot (and the Aussies) really are something at the polls.

Love and peace everyone
