Imho, the question is not ‘why did Harris lose?’
It’s ‘why the fuck did trump win?’
How did a racist, misogynistic, lying crook win? My analysis is: Racism, misogyny, billionaires, PUTIN, and a firehose of lies promulgated through a negligent - if not complicit - media.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS…
This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they?
ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants.
How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

Casualties in World War II:
Soviet Union: 26,600,000.
United States: 407,316.
And the Russians got to Berlin first.
So, no, the United States did not do "more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result 'on' World War II." That is just propaganda.
