All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg

Key Takeaways

The Trump win represents a dismissal of Wokeism and judgmentalism and is a ringing endorsement of meritocracy and common sense
Donald Trump has increased his support across the electorate; except for two demographic groups (65+ and white college women), every single demographic group shifted towards Republican from 2020 to 2024
Comparing Trump votes from 2020 to 2024 in areas that are bastions of elitist liberal thinking:
- In California, Trump lost by 29 points in 2020; he lost by 17 points in 2024
- In New York, Trump lost by 23 points in 2020; he lost by 12 in 2024
The current Democratic Party base consists of the elites: The overeducated, affluent, and non-religious types who are disconnected from the reality of most Americans
- If these people stay in control of the Democratic Party, the Republicans will probably have an electoral majority for the foreseeable future
- “I think that the Democrats will lose one of California or New York in the next eight years.” – Chamath
“The legacy media spell is broken. Their credibility has been destroyed and I think that the repudiation of the legacy media is one of the most important results of this election. It just shows that the Democrats had a trillion-dollar propaganda machine on their side and Trump was still able to win.” – David Sacks
Science is the constant process of questioning whether you are right or wrong; reasserting the scientific process of skepticism in federal agencies may help restore trust and faith in our institutions
“In the most basic calculation, the bottom fell out of the Democratic Party.” – Chamath
Donald Trump won because his focus is on solving real problems that are affecting Americans
“Americans love winners and innovation, and they hate socialism and woke nonsense – it’s time for a hard reset.” – Jason
