> Donald Trump pulled off a stunning political comeback because of … young men.

If you break exit poll data down by race [1], Black men 18-29 supported Harris by a whopping 55 percentage points. So even though Scott pays lip service to Black male educators being particularly underrepresented, he can't explain why this alleged phenomenon affecting young men is so vastly different between demographics.

Only 55 percentage points? Did you mean "whopping" in an ironic sense? I expected that stat to be higher. This speaks to just how bad of a candidate Harris was.


I'm not commenting on Harris as a candidate, just saying that election exit polls actually show the opposite of what Scott is claiming.


Oh.... I couldn't stay interested to read the whole article. Yes, that is indeed a male demographic that voted for a woman as a whole.

Men as a whole didn't reject Kamala because she was a woman. Her entire party embodies anti-man, anti-white policies. She had no definite principles and would have said anything to get power. Our best guess at her actual principles is that she is a communist. The Democrat machine basically forced her on voters, which says a lot about the party as well.


That is untethered from reality and still has nothing to do with what I'm saying. Maybe actually read the article before joining a discussion about it?
