Harris Tried to Win Over Republicans. Democratic Support Collapsed Instead
rollingstone.com

Harris only received five percent of Republican votes — less than the six percent Joe Biden won in 2020 when he beat Trump, as well as the seven percent won by Hillary Clinton in 2016 when she lost to him. While Harris won independents and moderates, she did so by smaller margins than Biden did in 2020.

Meanwhile, Harris lost households earning under $100,000, while Democratic turnout collapsed. Votes are still being counted, but Harris is on pace to underperform Biden’s 2020 totals by millions of votes.

And instead he was shot at, not for the race stuff, but when he started talking about the class divide in general.

The same with RFK. Both he and MLK were murdered ONLY after they started to militate against economic injustice.
