People often hide their personal motives, especially when society deems them immoral. This hypocritical behavior misguided the US presidential polls during the 2016 election, leading voters to feel uneasy to express their preferences to vote for Trump. This resulted in a predicted victory for Hillary Clinton, but in the end, Donald Trump emerged victorious. However, in the 2024 elections, Trump, who has gained widespread recognition among Americans for nearly a decade, emerged victorious, while Kamala and the Democrats failed due to five clear, ignorant, and deliberate mistakes.
The masculine personality surpasses sympathetic women’s concern
Presidential elections are about demonstrating clear leadership skills that qualify a candidate to lead a superpower nation such as the US. Trump successfully positioned himself as a superior leader with a focused mission and effectively undermined Kamala’s leadership capacity despite her edge in substance and skills. Trump’s masculinity trait, which aligns with the values held by many Americans, gave him an added advantage, while Kamala’s female sympathies were not significant to voters. Trump established himself as the genuine leader within the Republican Party, whereas Kamala struggled to present a clear mission to potential voters, and her campaign was viewed more as a sweetener.
Policies are meant for stuffing, not for commanding
Policies such as abortion and immigration, which only impact a small segment of society, are not decisive factors in presidential elections. These policies are tools used by leaders to shape citizens’ perceptions through persuasive arguments. The elites use policies to debate and advance their knowledge in their closed circles, while the masses use it to express their identity and belonging on topics they may not be familiar with. Presidential elections require a talented manipulator to fuse economic facts with fictions and inspire citizens about a given policy regardless of its substance.
Occasionally, people value the known ugly more than the hypocrite
The American media and Democrat elites have spent the past ten years emphasizing Trump’s shortcomings as a president, portraying him as an autocrat and fascist, among other negative attributes. Negative campaigns against Trump have resurfaced in subsequent elections, leading to his loss in one and his victory in a couple. However, Trump, who has previously experienced being president by his followers, remains popular with nearly fifty percent of Americans strongly supporting him. People who support Trump are not endorsing him for his positive qualities but because they reject traditional established politicians, willing to elevate a manipulator to power at the expense of the disfavored establishment candidate.
Biden Power Greediness: The Winner Leaves the Stage Late
The June 2024 debate between Biden and Trump revealed the glaring truth behind Biden’s apparent aging, illness, and diminished capacity to govern the United States. Following the debate, Biden withdrew from the race, and the Democrats nominated Harris through an undemocratic process, thereby neglecting the opportunity for American citizens to engage in a true democracy. Kamal’s positioning herself as a younger version of Joe Biden didn’t particularly appeal to citizens eager for change. The late withdrawal of Biden has negatively affected the entire democratic process, degrading Kamala’s ability to exhibit her strengths in peers’ debates and favoring the decisive candidate, Trump.
Trump is a genuinely opportunistic individual
Trump, a successful businessman, knows how to seize any given opportunity to grow. He aptly capitalizes on his opponents’ mistakes, inflates them significantly, and presents a rigid alternative that his supporters find appealing. Meanwhile, Harris failed to unite the divided unhappy voters, particularly youths and minorities. Additionally, Kamala has a significant number of bureaucrats who support her as the party’s final nominee, and it is her responsibility to please them in return for their favor. Trump, on the other hand, is a person whose destiny is to maximize his own potential, without any obligation to anyone else. He has capitalized on all his negative labels, turning them around to position himself as a suitable candidate to lead his nation.
