Contrary to Mexico, and many European countries, Americans are too misogynists to elect a woman as president no matter her qualifications.
They prefer an orange clown !

I disagree - totally dumb post because Hilary Clinton WON the popular vote- she was qualified. Harris who lost popular vote was not qualified. Their qualifications, not their gender, determined their results.

One of the silliest of posts as well as historically wrong.

Sad but true. The only way a woman is elected president of the US is if both political parties nominate women.

That is one of the reasons Trump won. And people seem to be okay with misandry? People should not be electing a president based on gender. It should be based on their platform and qualifications.

Harris was a terrible candidate who replaced a worse candidate that disqualified himself with debate performance. I believe a qualified woman will eventually win. Hilary Clinton in my mind was qualified, but the one reason why I didn't vote for her is she pandered to too many special interests, and this was a mistake. I think the mistake was more or less later admitted. Otherwise she was an excellent candidate vastly superior to Kamala Harris. In all respects.

I did vote for Jojo in 2020, and the gay candidate from Georgia who ran for the Libertarians in 2024.

Harris was a cackling word salad DEI idiot that is why she lost not because she was a woman.
As horrible as Trump is and as egotistical and crooked he is still a better choice for Americans than Harris, perhaps not so good for Canadians though in light of what he is doing now.

If I were an American citizen, I would be voting for Jo Jorgensen, not because she is a woman but because she aligns with my political beliefs. I am for Libertarianism.

Like I answered after the 2d debate, she won easily her debate against Trump.
Anyone who WATCHED the debate and isn't a MAGA CULT member should agree.
There is one poster at the time wrote that he watched only half of the debate !
What a way to be credible !

She rehearsed for one debate which she did reasonably well in and it was all down hill after that.
People didn’t believe in this cackling word salad DEI queen.
She lost everything, the popular vote, the Presidency, the house and the senate, there is not one state where she had the tiniest of improvement in voting
That is about as bad as it can get.
She is totally washed up and in the past even the Dems will have no faith in her.
She is not defendable just a total loser period.

Trump's election is a proof that qualification means shit. Trump was elected out of the racism and misogyny of a majority of Americans.

This kind of arrogance and elitist smug bs is what got Trump elected.

True, but these people are most often than not included in the racist ones...

One thing I forgot is the number of people who decided not to vote. They probably just thought there was no way anyone was imbecile enough to reelect Trump...

No, that is not true. This is what the GOP is trying to make you believe because down the road, they are the elitist prick who wants to cut down services to the population.

Just take healthcare. The gop success in blocking universal healthcare is the biggest scam ever. The poor maga folks are made to believe propaganda that keeps them shit poor, and makes them die 5 year younger on average, while their leader a billionaires cutting them services...

You certainly never looked a little bit at Trump's last summer rallies and 2016 rallies too and his big shit show : the Republican National Convention !
When your star speakers are Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon, it says a lot about your target voters !

Except for one gigantic difference, his shit show got him the popular vote the Presidency, the Senate and the House.
Kamala’s shit show made her extinct like a dinosaure.
It says a lot about your inept voters that did worse in every single state than the election before and lost all seven swing states.
I am no fan of Trump but he destroyed the Dems in this election and you can thank the lying scumbag Dems that kept Biden’s mental decline a secret for years and then nominated a cackling word salad DEI loser.

Biden`s mental decline was not dangerous.

The Trump`s team and their leader blamed DEI for a plane crash even before the bodies of young teens were pulled out of the Potomac. You should mince your words when you talk about losers...

Are you kidding.
Having a President who can’t find his way off a stage and has to be hand led is not dangerous. Someone who babbles incomprehensibly through a whole debate.
Having a party lie to the American public for years about an incompetent dementia ridden President is not dangerous.
What world do you live in. The Dems were a bunch of lying scumbags all through the Biden Presidency and deserved to get their ass kicked the way they did.
Unfortunately Trump is proving to be dangerous as well but not for the same reasons.
Mince my words about that cackling word salad DEI loser, nah she proved it by losing everything that was possible to lose in the last election.
The worst candidate the Dems could possibly ever have. Spent almost 2 billion to get the Dems wiped out and she is your hero lol.

https://www.npr.org/2025/03/12/g-s1-53270/australia-us-tariffs-steel-and-aluminum

Anthony Albanese the PM of Australia has got it right, probably the only country that is doing what is best for the working class. They decided to NOT apply reciprocal tariffs even though the US will be applying tariffs on all aluminum and steel.

PM Anthony Albanese said "But he said imposing reciprocal tariffs on the U.S. would only push up prices for Australian consumers and spur inflation".

"Tariffs and escalating trade tensions are a form of economic self-harm and a recipe for slower growth and higher inflation. They are paid by the consumers. This is why Australia will not be imposing reciprocal tariffs on the United States," Albanese added.

He is right. All these tariffs that Canada is applying is counterproductive and they cannot win. In this the working class is the causality while government cashes in.

Your words about Biden that can't find his way off a stage and in France has been proven lectured videos by cheating Republicans. According to Republicans, Biden was not running the contry but Obama was. If true you should aknoledge that it was much better than Trump first presidency.
Biden inherited the disastrous Covid 19 management by Republican Governors who denied the seriousness of it.
Remember also that there was proportionnaly more deaths in the Republican population. Why ? Disbelieve in vaccin (lower vaccinnation % in Republican population).
So go back to 2021 to 2024 and explain what was so bad.
Yes inflation was high not only in USA but across the planet. Was it Biden's fault ?
I know you're to intelligent to think that !
At least I hope so !

Nobody wins in a trade war.
Trump is an egotistical asshole causing havoc throughout the world and making the US quickly become the most hated country in the world.
This will not come without backlash from Europe and most countries that he is attacking and will leave the US without any friends or allies.
He is not doing this with diplomacy or tact but as a ridiculous bully who thinks he can hold the whole world hostage.
