We cannot win by hating our fellow Americans.

189. I don't know.

That's why I think it's important to be open to understanding what happened, specifically with Hispanic men and Black men, who saw the biggest shift away from Democrats between 2020 and 2024 and to be honest, the shift started before then too - going back to 2016, Black men voted 82-13 for Hillary and Hispanic men voted 69-25 for her - and in 2024, Black men voted 77-21 for Harris and Hispanic men voted 54-44 for Trump. So, Democrats went from +69 among Black men in 2016 to +56 for a loss of 13% and among Hispanic men, went from +44 among Hispanic men in 2016 to -10 in 2024 for a staggering loss of 54 points among that demographic.

I think the Democrats' days are numbered if they can't win back some of these voters.

Why did they vote for Trump? I can't say. You could blame sexism but that doesn't explain why they voted in stronger numbers for Hillary than Harris and you can blame racism, but that also doesn't explain why Harris, a Black person, saw a decrease among Black men.

In reality: Democrats actually improved significantly among white voters in 2024 compared to 2016. Hillary only 37% of white voters in 2016 - Harris won 42%, which was actually better than Biden.

I think it's imperative to figure out why the party is losing minority support, especially to someone like Trump.

But I don't know why and I don't think we'll figure out that answer writing off the 50% of Hispanics who voted for Biden and flipped to Trump last November.
