Wow and a big Yes! to this post on Preference Falsification https://pjmedia.com/richard-fernandez/2024/11/06/preference-falsification-n4934063
"n the end, Donald Trump was elected not simply because people voted for him but because even more voted against many things. Against open borders, high prices, out-of-control crime, stifling regulation, hidden censorship, and heavy-handed social policy. What MAGA did was build a powerful coalition out of things that supposedly didn’t exist but actually did.

The MAGA side consequently had a huge information advantage over the self-blinded left, and that gave the rebels a power the establishment never expected to see. That is the reason why, though it seemed so close, the election outcome proved a lopsided contest. That unsuspected force brought down more than Kamala Harris, who was given the thankless job of not only defending the indefensible but was totally overmatched by the forces that actually showed up. They swept past Kamala to topple the Tower of Obama. Those lofty battlements, from which the bat-like forms of the latest sendings of intersectionality had long issued, toppled over like cardboard from across the distant plain. Tall and strong they had seemed, buttressed by universities, newspapers, and TV networks, but they were blind and brought down by what they did not see. The Third Term of Obama is ended."

You are tempting me, Mama. I said I'd hold off for a while, but I've got something you'll love in the works.
