  I don’t think he needs to convince you of that. The results of your election are plain for all to see.

  What broad coalition?

  There was no coalition. It was a campaign by and for white college educated professional women in the suburbs.

  That’s not a coalition, that’s a book club.

  Look at the numbers please:
  In 2020 Biden had 81,284,666 votes.
  In 2024 Kamala had 69,218,912 votes.

  That is a difference of around 12 Million votes or nearly 15%. Trump at the same time gained only like 750k votes. I mean yes, he somehow GAINED votes, but still…

  What is your supposed reason for those numbers?
