    Why should they ? Similar to Trump, Harris also makes anti-immigrant rhetoric and project about building border fences to attract the voters.

    It is noteworthy to say that illegal immigrants is one of the source of income and manpower for countries like USA. By illegal does not mean they participate in narcotic factories or gangster wars or something, they just did normal productive jobs at lower wages and no social welfare due to their illegal living. Trump and Harris's anti-immigrant agenda are just hollow slogan to win voters and put blame to immigrants.

    Better not, until the horizon clears up.

    Peskov: Putin will not congratulate Trump on his victory, by Alexandra Yudina for VZGLYAD. 11.06.2024.

    President Vladimir Putin does not intend to congratulate Donald Trump on his election victory due to the unfriendly policies of the United States, said the head of state's press secretary Dmitry Peskov.

    According to him, the Russian president does not plan to congratulate Trump on his victory in the presidential election, since the Kremlin's position is linked to the fact that the United States is an unfriendly country, TASS reports .

    “I am not aware of the president’s plans to congratulate Trump on the elections,” Peskov said.

    The Kremlin spokesman also attributed the optimism of Russian politicians over Trump's victory to his peaceful aspirations. According to him, although Trump made tough statements during the election campaign, he also spoke about his intentions to end the policy of old and new wars.

    In addition, the presidential press secretary added that Putin remains open to dialogue with the United States. Peskov noted that this is a consistent position and recalled Putin's words and his readiness for contacts. However, he stressed that the issue of a telephone conversation with Trump can only be discussed after specific actions.

    Earlier, Ursula von der Leyen congratulated Trump on his election victory . Volodymyr Zelensky also congratulated Trump, expressing hope for a personal meeting to discuss strategic partnership and support for Ukraine.

    French President Emmanuel Macron also sent his congratulations, expressing his readiness for further cooperation . In addition, Chancellor Olaf Scholz congratulated Trump on his election as US President, emphasizing the importance of cooperation with Washington for the prosperity of both countries.

    Top Democrats have utilized direct appeals to these [minority] communities in an attempt to convince them to vote Harris.

    Leading groups in the Palestine solidarity movement have responded directly to such statements.

    In response to this accusation, we remind Democrats who is to blame if Donald Trump is declared winner of the presidential election. It is the Biden-Harris administration and the Democratic establishment, not our communities, who will be to blame if Trump wins,” said the Palestinian Youth Movement in a statement.

    It is the Biden-Harris administration who chose to continue sending billions of dollars in weapons to slaughter our people. It is Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party, not our communities, who chose to ignore the public polls which showed that the masses across this country oppose this genocide.”

    Lebanese-American Journalist Rania Khalek spoke to Arab American voters in Dearborn, Michigan, ahead of the election. Many of these voters were also Lebanese, and had been personally impacted by Israeli aggression in Lebanon.

    If Kamala Harris loses, that sends a strong message that she did not do enough to earn the pro-peace voters’ votes,” said Lebanese-American Micho Assi, who at the time of her interview was not sure who she would end up voting for. “And that’s on her.”

    Multiple third party candidates, which include leftist scholar Cornel West as well as Stein and De la Cruz, have issued agreements with the goal of maximizing the impacts of their campaigns—a powerful step towards building an alternative to the two-party system.

    According to Gallup, 63% of US adults agree that both major establishment parties are doing such “such a poor job” of representing the people of the US that “a third major party is needed.”

    Democrats Blame Biden for Loss, CNN Reports, 11.06.2024.

    CNN: Some US Democrats Blame Biden for Harris' Defeat.

    MOSCOW, November 6 - RIA Novosti. A number of Democrats in the United States are blaming the current US President Joe Biden for the defeat of their candidate Kamala Harris in the election, CNN reports, citing a senior representative of Harris's election campaign.

    "Biden will bear a large share of the blame for this... And, frankly speaking, rightfully so," the TV channel quotes him as saying.

    As the channel notes, party officials are making a "myriad" of accusations against Biden because of Trump's election victory: in particular, Democrats blame Biden for his initial decision to seek re-election and his long stay in the presidential race despite the concerns of many in his party about him, which is why Harris had to conduct an "unusually truncated campaign."

    Been sometime, been busy here is some updates

    They have won the house, the senate, SCOTUS IS PRO REP.

    trump has won the popular and electoral vote.

    I don't think any candidate in US history has won this hard. The man can literally push through whatever he wants now

    Ukraine is now freaking out, due to the fact Trump is notorious for not being able to be controlled and if they don't do what he wants, he will pull support for them which will doom them.

    The military has pulled some stuff back already, seeing how Trump is. As it is only our support that keeps them alive.

    Trump is going to push for peace in Ukraine, if the russians talk to him or not remains to be seen, but Putin has said he was "open to talking with us" already

    Trump is the kind of guy who will give up something to get something, so if Putin is honestly interested in a deal. trump's the only real guy he can do it with.

    I do know from the last meeting Zelen had with Trump, Zelen was unhappy that Trump wasn't willing to blindly support him like Biden was.

    All in all this could be good or bad for the russians. Hard to say, If Zelensky refuses to listen, Trump will ditch Ukraine and leave it to the russians but this is merely one of a few different possibly outcomes

    Trump’s win is a victory for the non-brainwashed Americans, by Rachel Marsden, a columnist, political strategist and host of independently produced talk-shows in French and English, for RT. 11.06.2024.

    US voters have proven they can still judge reality by what it is, despite all of the establishment’s efforts.

    Blowout alert! I guess average Americans don’t like being infantilized. At least Trump trusted them to be able to take a joke, unlike his opponents.

    So when’s Liz Cheney’s date with the firing squad already? Are we done yet with the anti-Trump fake news now that the majority of voters see through it? Probably not, huh?

    With the exception of those in a handful of states, Americans united to send former US President Donald Trump back to the White House and handed him carte blanche with Republican control of the Senate and likely the House as well. Not bad for a guy the establishment tried to brand as the reincarnation of Hitler. Did Hitler also have giant Israeli flags at his Madison Square Garden rally? Or hang out at the Jewish wall in Israel or with Hebrew-inscribed tablets in a yarmulke? That should have been the Democrats’ first sign that their branding attempt was off. Yet, just like the fitting title of the upcoming Harris biography co-authored by Chelsea Clinton: She Persisted.

    Maybe next time, instead of persisting with their idiocy, they’ll come up with an actual agenda and a candidate who addresses questions and issues on point rather than punting them in favor of talking points and platitudes that leave voters guessing as to what to even expect if ever elected – beyond the usual establishment status quo, which, of course, sucks. Just ask the overwhelming majority of Americans who say that the country is headed in the wrong direction.

    Presumably, the Democrats figured that they could make a whole campaign about abortion rights – against a guy who, frankly, doesn’t actually seem too interested in the topic, which was recently re-opened by the courts. It’s telling that, according to CNN exit polls, Harris won the female vote by five points less than Biden did in 2020 and three points less than even Hillary Clinton did against Trump in 2016, when abortion wasn’t even an issue.

    Certain categories of voters really capture the story of this election. The first is white women with college degrees, 11% more of whom voted for Harris than for Biden in 2020. Institutional establishment brainwashing and virtue signaling apparently works more effectively on well-formatted brains, female or otherwise. The message from the party hacks and their celebrity surrogates was that abortion was really all that should matter to women, reducing them to one-dimensional caricatures of actual human beings. But it turns out that many more women than they figured don’t like being talked down to and treated as little more than a walking uterus – even by other women. Which would explain why white women with no degree voted overwhelmingly for Trump by 25 points over Harris, and even voters of color with no degree, generally considered a lock by Democrats, still voted by 14 points less for Harris than for Biden four years ago.

    The youngest voters, aged 18-29, who you’d figure would be most directly affected by reproductive rights issues, either as women themselves or their white-knighting male counterparts who were constantly told by Democrats that they had to cast their vote primarily in support of the reproductive rights of the women in their life, actually ended up shifting their vote to Trump by 11 points compared to 2020.

    The bottom line is that women living real lives with a multitude of concerns and interests don’t like being paternalized, which is what the Democrats constantly do. Just because it’s a woman and her surrogates who are doing the talking down to them, doesn’t make it any more appealing. It just makes you a useful idiot of the patriarchal establishment – the same one that’s trying to emotionally manipulate women’s electoral choices to maintain the status quo that disadvantages women in every other possible way that actually matters to all of their lives, from cost of living to foreign wars in which their sons are sent to die and other countries’ sons are subjected to the same. All so Uncle Sam can turn a profit. It’s the guy you keep calling a misogynist who wants to take him on.

    Speaking of pricey wars, CNN exit polls also show that about two-thirds of voters say the economy is bad even compared with 2020, when the country was grappling with the fallout from the Covid fiasco. That shift benefited Trump. It’s no wonder when he’s the same guy who’s made it clear that he wants to square away foreign wars and focus on the American economy. He’s even suggested that he’d rather just strongarm allies into outright buying American weapons with their own money, threatening to kill off NATO if they don’t rather than ginning up actual war (or persist with the current ones) as a way to justify spending increasingly more of America’s own tax money as the Biden administration has done.

    Harris has said nothing to suggest that she’s in any position to challenge the establishment machine that’s been running the country since Biden’s been doing his Weekend at Bernie’s routine and would have remained largely in place with a Harris victory. And while Trump may not have all the answers, at least he’s expressed a clear will. In that sense, he mirrors voters themselves, who mostly don’t know what the answers are – just that they know things must change.

    The bottom line is that while Trump was trash talking everyone from neocons like Liz Cheney and her Iraq War architect father, the illustrious Dick, both of whom came out in favor of Harris, he was saying what average people fed up with war were actually thinking. But establishment virtue signalers cynically tried to capitalize on his choice of vivid rhetoric to suggest that he’d go full-blown Benito Mussolini on his opponents if he got back into office. Just like the last time that he was in office for a whole four years, I guess? The only one actually taking any gunshots to the head has been Trump.

    It also turns out that people like a good laugh, still know what a joke is, and aren’t buying into the Democrat and establishment hysteria that takes people for idiots in pretending not to. Democrats and their proxies were convinced that a joke by a professional comedian about Puerto Rico at a late-campaign Trump rally would tank the Latino vote. Instead, Trump ended up winning it among Latino men by ten points. And even Latina women shifted to Trump in this election by 15 points compared with 2020.

    America isn’t divided. At least not as much as we’ve been led to believe. Normal, average, non-brainwashed people of all stripes, who can still judge reality by what they see and experience in their daily life rather than what they’re told to think by the establishment’s Hollywood and corporate media minstrels and court jesters, have fully availed themselves of the opportunity to express themselves in the most democratic way possible. And their message is that Trump isn’t the radical – the establishment is.

    The silent majority that feels increasingly marginalized, if not outright censored, has found a voice in Trump that resonates with their own. Now it’s the establishment’s turn to spend the next four years figuring out what they can do to actually serve the average voter rather than spending all their time indulging themselves and their attempts to leverage America’s diversity to divide it self-servingly.
