Amid the impacts of this defeat (traumatic, again, for the Democrats), it would be worth trying to preliminarily summarize three of the factors that influenced those results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The first<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the waterlines. The Democratic campaign failed to obtain sufficient support from women, Latino men and blacks, in which, among other things, a peculiar mix of \u201ceconomic pragmatism,\u201d conventional machismo and paternalism gravitated. And, correlatively, the little willingness to consider the possibility that a woman \u2014 black and by all accounts \u201cliberal from California\u201d \u2014 could be the commander in chief. But there were previous signs. Part of the media coverage before zero hour had focused on the question of whether Trump would make inroads among the black community, especially black men. Or among younger voters and Latinos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of the latter 45% voted in favor of the Republican ticket and 57% did the same in Pennsylvania, the crown jewel, despite the racist joke about Puerto Ricans at Madison Square Garden, called to make the difference in an election that the polls then gave as very close. As an example, in 2020 the exit polls showed that Latinos, that diverse community, had voted for Biden by a margin of 23 points (59% vs. 36%). This time the opposite happened.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_312889\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-312889\" style=\"width: 1140px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-312889\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/biden-efe-1-1-750x500.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-312889\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Joe Biden shortly before addressing the nation in a speech from the White House, Washington, DC, on November 7, 2024.

Democratic hopes were pinned on the certainty that women would turn out in record numbers to elect the country\u2019s first female president after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. A poll released at the last minute in Iowa, conducted by one of the country\u2019s most prestigious polling agencies, fueled that (other) mirage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The third<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the capitalization of discontent by the opponent. Trump and his running mate, Senator JD Vance, managed to capitalize on voter discontent, especially on the economy, immigration at the southern border, and even instability abroad. Undoubtedly, one of the achievements of the public relations system and the manufacture\/socialization of images, in which populism of this kind exhibits a PhD summa cum laude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The combination of these factors, and others omitted here for the sake of synthesis, determined that the day after the United States would wake up with Republican control of the Senate (52 seats) and possibilities of achieving a majority in the House \u2014 so far 210 vs. 195. And with an ultraconservative Supreme Court, with three of its judges placed by Donald Trump during his previous term.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And another new fact. Unlike his first Electoral College victory (2016), this time Trump won the popular vote, undoubtedly an additional opportunity for him to appeal to an element he did not have then. \u201cAmerica has given us a powerful and unprecedented mandate,\u201d he told the euphoric crowd in West Palm Beach early Wednesday morning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And right there he summed up his approach to a second at-bat with a slogan as simple as it is worrying: \u201cPromises made, promises kept.\u201d Beyond the usual differences between political speeches and feasibilities \u2014 indeed, the in life is not the same as the painted, as the saying goes \u2014 this suggests a not exactly bright future for the United States. Harris warned voters, again and again, about the risks of his return, inviting them to turn the page on Trump. Life, however, gave her surprises. Her message did not get through. She and her coreligionists were the ones who turned the page at the polls.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_312890\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-312890\" style=\"width: 1140px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-312890\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/kamala-harris-efe-1-750x500.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1140px) 100vw, 1140px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-312890\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kamala Harris in her concession speech at Howard University, Washington, DC, on November 6, 2024.

Up until last Monday, the projections from the 538 website gave Trump a 52% chance of winning the Electoral College, compared to Harris\u2019s 48%. The model reflected several late polls that favored him in states like Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, but nothing out of the \u201cnormal.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But it was overwhelming.
