Stunning Reality: About 10 Million Fewer Americans Voted In 2024 As Compared To 2020!

One of many shocking realities of the 2024 Presidential Election is that an estimate 10 million FEWER Americans voted in 2024, as compared to the Presidential Election of 2020.

This, with a growing population, and millions of new potential voters, and it seems inexplicable!

And clearly, those who did vote based their decision on lies, deceit, ignorance, and thinking only OTHER people would be hurt by what Donald Trump proposes to do!

And clearly, no matter what is denied, there are many millions of Americans, who have no issue with white supremacy, racism, nativism, anti semitism, and misogyny, and this in a nation in which many profess to be “religious”, but do not believe in or follow the teachings of Jesus Christ!

The only hope is that once Americans see the reality of the second term of Donald Trump, that the reaction against it will affect the Congressional Elections of 2026 and the Presidential Election of 2028, and lead to a Democratic Party revival.

Bright Moments For Democrats In Election Results

At a time of so much feeling of disappointment and concern about the election results of 2024 for the Democratic Party, there are bright moments to applaud.

Josh Stein became the first Jewish Governor of North Carolina.

Angela Alsobrooks in Maryland and Lisa Blunt Rochester in Delaware became the first combination of African American women elected to the US Senate, and only the fourth and fifth such women in American history. They also became only the 13th and 14th African American Senators, including nine men.

Two new Jewish American Senators were elected, including Adam Schiff of California and Elissa Slotkin of Michigan; and the first Korean American Senator, Andy Kim, was elected in New Jersey.

Realignment Seems To Have Occurred, But It May Not Last Past Next Presidential Election!

The Democratic Party has received a heavy rebuke from voters, who once could be counted upon to remain in support of the party.

It is mind boggling that 46 percent of Latinos, 39 percent of Asian Americans, 20 percent of African Americans, and working class Whites abandoned the party that promoted civil rights and social justice reforms over the 90 years since Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal in the 1930s.

But their “abandonment” is more centered around the key issue of the economy, the reality that the COVID 19 Pandemic created high inflation which finally, but belatedly, has been overcome in recent months.

Overall, the economy has done well, but since people think first about the issue of groceries, gas, and other costs that had been mounting, they decided to avoid dealing with the other issues so important out there, such as survival of democracy, abortion rights, and foreign policy concerns.

The inability of Joe Biden to deal with the problem of immigration at the border also was effectively used by Republicans, along with creating the false issue of transgender rights.

Donald Trump is not going to keep the support of the groups who voted for him, once they realize he is only concerned about corporations and the wealthy, and is on the road to another massive tax cut, adding trillions to the national debt, and imposing tariffs that will raise the cost of living for the people who decided to support him.

Donald Trump is assured to antagonize and alienate groups that will realize they have been taken advantage of, and as long as the Democratic Party comes up with new proposals and plans and have a dynamic primary season for the 2028 Presidential nomination, the party will be able to retrieve what they have lost!

Shocking, Disturbing Results: Gloomy Future Awaits Nation!

This author and blogger is stunned by the shocking, disturbing results of the Presidential Election of 2024, and fears that the future of the nation is gloomy under a second term of Donald Trump.

It will take time for me to process the terrible events, so I will write when I feel able to express my deep feelings and thoughts.

I will just say for now that this is the most shocking event to occur, since January 6, 2021; September 11, 2001; and November 22, 1963, in my lifetime.

I wish all my readers peace and solitude, but realize it is hard for any of us to gain that sense of security.

That is all for the time being!

The Role Of Women Likely To Decide Presidential Election Of 2024!

This author and blogger writes as Election Day has begun!

A final thought: The role of Women Voters seems likely to decide the Presidential Election of 2024.

There are more women voters than male voters, and a major gender gap has opened, according to numerous surveys.

Even in Iowa, considered a “red” state, the Des Moines Register poll surprises everyone, showing that Kamala Harris has a three point lead, primarily based on Independent Women and Women over the age of 65.

If this poll, which has been very accurate over many years, proves to be accurate, and Iowa, with its 6 electoral votes goes to Kamala Harris, it would insure a Democratic victory, as it would be sign that nearby states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, would likely have similar results!

Predictions On 119th Congress (2025-2027) Races

This author and blogger senses that the Democrats will regain control of the House of Representatives in the 119th Congress, since the Republicans have had a disastrous two years under Speaker Kevin McCarthy for nine months and then Speaker Mike Johnson, having the fewest accomplishments in legislation in more than a century.

While it is very difficult to project on 435 House races, it seems likely that some Republican seats in New York and California are likely to go to the Democrats, along with some gain of seats in the South, specifically in Alabama and Louisiana.

Likely, the majority will be, however, only on a few seats, as is now the situation.

The Senate will likely see a slight Republican majority, with the retirement of Joe Manchin, insuring that a Republican will replace him.

However, if all Democrats running for reelection, and those running to replace fellow Democrats, seem likely to win, that sets up a possible 50-50 Senate, which the Vice President would organize.

It depends on whether Republicans Ted Cruz in Texas, Rick Scott in Florida, and Deb Fischer in Nebraska can keep their seats. If any of them lose, we would see a Democratic controlled Senate.

If however, Democrats Jon Tester in Montana or Sherrod Brown in Ohio lose their seats, the Republicans would have the majority of the Senate.

Electing Trump Allows Dangerous Characters To Promote Policy!

What is even more scary than Donald Trump being returned to the Oval Office is that it would allow dangerous characters to promote their evil intentions, as they would have ultimate power over many areas of government policy, with Trump not fully engaged, and allowing his loyalists to do whatever they wish.

There would be no guard rails of people who intervened in the Trump Presidency over four years, and in many cases, then resigned or were fired, but now “true believers” with extreme ideas would be in total charge.

These include the following, just a short list but terrifying:

JD Vance (a heartbeat away from the Presidency)
Elon Musk
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Stephen Miller
Steve Bannon
Roger Stone
Tucker Carlson
Howard Lutnick
Rudy Giuliani
Matt Gaetz
Marjorie Taylor Greene
Laura Loomer
Charlie Kirk
Nick Fuentes

These characters and many others would be a massive threat to the continuation of American democracy and the rule of law.

Trump’s Desire To Control Women Motivates Women’s Vote In Presidential Election!

Donald Trump has a well known record for abuses of women, including multiple accusations of sexual abuse, including a conviction in the E Jeanne Carroll case.

His whole life has been one of exploiting, degrading, and manipulating women, and he is certainly the master misogynist.

He has now declared that he is the person to “protect” women, whether they like it or not, part of his desire to dominate and control women, setting a horrendous example for males of how to mistreat and degrade women, as if they do not have the ability to control their own lives.

Trump is responsible for the loss of abortion rights, which has led to the deaths of women who could not gain medical treatment when pregnant.

The nerve of Donald Trump to wish to dictate to women, and it is great to see massive numbers of women are voting against Donald Trump and for Kamala Harris in the Presidential Election Of 2024!

Democrats Have Cleaned Up Republican Economic Messes Since 1953!

It is amazing how Republicans have lied incessantly for the past 70 years about the economy under Democratic Presidents, when it is such Democratic Presidents who have revived the economy after Republican Presidents managed to preside over economic recessions.

John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson presided over economic prosperity in the 1960s, after three recessions under Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Jimmy Carter presided over an economic recovery from the Recession of 1974-1975 under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, but sadly had to deal with another short lived, six months, recession in 1980, which was one of the factors, but not the most important, in his defeat, as the only Democratic President who had an economic decline since 1953.

Bill Clinton presided over an economic recovery from the recession under George H. W. Bush in the early 1990s, having a long period of economic prosperity.

Barack Obama presided over a long economic recovery from the Great Recession of 2008-2009 under George W. Bush, over 75 months from 2010-2017.

Joe Biden presided over revival of the American economy, from a great economic recession in office in 2020 under Donald Trump, a time of dramatic economic loss due to the Covid 19 Pandemic.

While there were moments of high inflation under Joe Biden due to the aftermath of the Pandemic, as with all Democratic Presidents, there was job growth, with most jobs created under them, and the percentage under Republican Presidents being very few under Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and the Bushes, and a massive job loss under Donald Trump.

These are economic facts, no matter what Donald Trump and Republicans claim to be the truth!

Crazy: RFK Jr In Charge Of Health Care Under Trump?

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is a loose cannon, who has demonstrated basic psychological problems, and has embarrassed his siblings and other Kennedy family relatives by his outrageous behavior and utterances over the past few years.

Clearly, he is mentally unstable and dangerous if he was given power.

But now, RFK Jr. is telling us that Donald Trump, if elected, will put him in charge of the Health and Human Services cabinet agency, as well as the Food and Drug Administration, US Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and other related agencies.

RFK Jr is a threat to public health, who has gone on a rampage against vaccines; attacking the great Dr. Anthony Fauci, who served all Presidents from Ronald Reagan to Joe Biden; and his private life is a constant scandal of sexual impropriety, which together should eliminate him as a potential man of power under Donald Trump!

But Donald Trump has no ethics, morals, scruples himself, and is no role model for American domestically or on the world scene, so yet another reason of thousands to work to defeat Trump and put RFK Jr. back into obscurity, already repudiated by his own family members!
