2364 – Trump Wins: US Embraces Fascism & Rejects Liberalism. Our Path Forward w/ Ettingermentum
It’s Hump Day! Emma speaks with Ettingermentum of the “Ettingermentum Newsletter” on SubStack to discuss the results of the 2024 election. First, Emma runs through the big updates on Trump’s victory in the Presidential election, the GOP’s taking of the Senate (and likely keeping the House), exit polls, the success and failure of various abortion referendums, and California’s tough-on-crime referendum, before expanding on their personal reflections on the GOP’s overwhelming victory yesterday. Ettingermentum then joins, as he and Emma where their polling predictions went wrong, also unpacking why Dems learned all of the wrong lessons from their success in the 2022 midterms – particularly in terms of interpreting it as an explicit endorsement of the Biden Administration – and the complete failure of Democrats and Kamala Harris to set forth an alternative vision to the GOP’s demagogic fascism and Biden’s lethargic liberalism. After briefly touching on the legitimacy of the “Shy” Trump voter, and parsing through the lessons on campaign ground game, Josh and Emma look at the parallels between Obama and Trump’s victories – particularly in terms of turning out disengaged voters – and dive deep into what the future of the progressive project will look like under Trump.
And in the Fun Half: After expanding on the Right’s sweeping victory in yesterday’s elections, Emma and the MR Team talk with Kimmy from Kentucky about moving forward as a red-state single mother and the importance of community organizing – both materially and spiritually – and Ronald Raygun shares his reflections on Trump’s victory. They also unpack the “lessons” that could be learned, Valerie from Arizona shares some personal messages and a hypothesis, and Blake from Nashville tackles party politics. Ben from Columbus explores Bernie Moreno’s victory over Sherrod Brown, plus, your calls and IMs!
