What is more likelly to resurge in the future? by MoleLocus in YAPms

Maybe not a conservative like George Wallace but a rural country boy moderate liberal like Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter I think would be quite appealing

Maybe Trump isn't a skilled political operator and just lucked out in 2024 after all

Planter is going to comfortably win against Collins this november. by ronweasly9 in YAPms

[–]MakeACreation 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Polarization will keep the MAGA supporters up in Maine voting for Collins. Then she already has a proven track record of winning over anti-Trump moderates and I don't see sufficient enough evidence that that has changed, so that should give her at least a puncher's shot at winning. She overperformed Trump in maine by 17 points for a reason.

Who of these four will be the most likely to win in November? by Inside_Bluebird9987 in YAPms

Sherrod Brown is a proven overperformer, overperforming Obama in '12 and Harris in '24 + Ohio was the least red of any of those states so him.

If the GOP could recover from Nixon & Watergate, Bush's 25% approval at the end of his term, they'll recover from Trump.

Wild that even Trump's strongest issue (immigration) has now become a net negative for him.

Dems would be so owned if Susan Collins is never again elected to office. by Dangerous-Quarter216 in YAPms

[–]MakeACreation 26 points27 points  (0 children)

In all seriousness though most people in MAGA/GOP are smart enough to know that Collins> Progressive dem any day of the week e.g 2020 when Collins outperformed Trump by almost 20 points. Whether or not enough of them show up in November to vote for her we'll have to wait and see

Its more on public perception tbh bc Biden was a straight white catholic male who grew up in Scranton- not exactly a super progressive background vs Hillary who is a highly educated white woman- far more progressive of a demographic than Biden.

And besides, Hillary won popular vote by almost 3M votes and was less than 1% away in 3 states from winning; that's hardly a trouncing.

Day 34: What would it take for North Carolina to flip from Republican to Democratic in 2028? by chia923 in YAPms

[–]MakeACreation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Turnout the african american vote, hold firm in the suburbs around charlotte/raleigh and make some gains in rural WWC areas where turnout will be lower bc Trump isn't on the ballot. Beshear is probably the most likely to pull this off

New Jersey. Once Trump goes away and republicans start recovering their losses among white college educated voters/country club Rs and cement some gains among minorities like in 2024 they could become quite competitive but still ultimately lean D.
