Cause otherwise midterms discussion will be scattered around a bunch of separate Culture War thread posts. And it's nice to have more off-the-cuff rapid reactions in a dedicated megathread.
The first thing I've noticed so far: if the exit polls are correct, Americans are very pessimistic about AI.

Obama is largely the same as these three, except earlier, more dangerous and effective. Obama winning in 2012 radicalized and emboldened the left. Mamdani and Abdulla are not Muslims in any meaningful sense; they're empty foreigners who are playing racial resentment politics and saying whatever they need to say to get power just like Obama did. They're the solved meta for leftist politics. The demographic replacement happened before Trump "super charged," them with likely 100,000,000 foreigners in the US by the time he took office.
The American economic system is socialism for the rich and the poor and capitalism for the middle-class. Why wouldn't the young be interested in socialism for themselves as well? The current American economic system is everyone gets stuff except for them and they're looking at their lives being far worse than their parents or their grandparents. They would be interested in anything which gives them answers to these problems.
even if this was true: Oh? Is that it? As opposed to pre-Trump GOP who were constantly trying to convince their voters for decades to accept illegal amnesty deals and destroying the lives of anyone on their own side who even got slightly close to these topics?
sure dude, this has been a fuckup and a failure and a disaster, but having no Trump would have been worse
not that it particularly matters, we didn't know it would end up like this when we first started and trying anything, especially in politics, means putting something on the table and accepting risk you could fail and things get worse
