Except for 2020 the 2024 election had the highest voter turnout so far this century. A lot of people were voting. Was it just more Trump supporters that turned up? He does have a way of stirring people up. He picks topics that make a certain type of person mad and that brings them out. Kamala could have responded by picking topics that inspired the left. Trump was offering a complete overhaul of the government and sweeping social changes (which he is delivering). Kamala was offering more of the same. I suspect he just brought out more people that otherwise wouldn't have voted.
And before you start blaming me for it, I, like most of us, don't live in a swing state. My vote literally didn't matter.

I feel you're also ignoring the huge amount of free publicity that Trump go from TikTok, Instagram and X. Kamala, or any D, would not have gotten that extra power.

Maybe dems would get more attention if they did something different from the other "party".

Are you literally implying Trump and Biden are handling the presidency the exact same way? That the Dems have been passing similar laws to the Republicans? If so, you're either ingorant, or a shill.

Learn of the vast gerrymandering that occured since the last election and understand how it swayed the vote by 3-4% as planned.

While you personally may not be responsible, it's been reported that low Democratic voter turnout played a large factor in the election outcome.
Larry Sabato, the director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, acknowledged that Biden voters who swung toward Mr. Trump played a part in Ms. Harris’s loss, but pointed to low Democratic turnout as the larger factor.
Later, the article highlights clear cases (in some swing states) where Democratic voter turnout would have made a difference.
Where Trump gained a little and Harris lost a lot.
Mr. Trump won Florida’s Miami-Dade County, becoming the first Republican to do so since 1988. But again, Ms. Harris’s loss was just as much of the story as his gain: Mr. Trump won about 70,000 new votes in the county, while she lost nearly 140,000. Other counties that Mr. Trump flipped had similar vote disparities. In 21 of these 77 counties, Mr. Trump received fewer votes in this election than in 2020, but the Democratic vote drop-off was much steeper. This happened from coast to coast, from Fresno County, Calif., to Pinellas County, Fla.
Non-voters allowed Trump to win.
