Summary

As Election Day unfolds, Donald Trump and his team have intensified their calls for male supporters to vote, with Trump urging men to “get off that beautiful couch.”

This appeal comes amid high female voter turnout, potentially benefiting Kamala Harris. MAGA figures, including Stephen Miller and Elon Musk, have echoed Trump’s push, with Miller issuing an increasingly urgent call to mobilize voters.

The Trump campaign’s tone has shifted, moving from confidence to a sense of desperation, even hinting at a possible loss if turnout falls short.

Polls are now closing as the nation awaits results.

    Trump adviser Stephen Miller’s first election night message to men was mild. If you know any men who haven’t voted, get them to the polls.

    Miller sounded noticeably more panicked when he took to X half an hour later, after the first polls had closed. WHAT ARE YOU DOING RIGHT NOW TO TURN OUT THE TRUMP VOTE? CALLING, TEXTING, EMAILING, DRIVING TO THE POLLS? TURN OUT THE VOTE!!!

    And an hour after that, Miller’s tone had reached a fever-pitch as he made a fear-stoking appeal to men and railed against undocumented immigrants in the most inflammatory language possible. Illegals are raping and murdering American children. All the men of America need to fulfill their duty, get to the voting booth, and end the invasion once and for all.

    Hah the team behind the guy running who says he’s a billionaire, backed by the other billionaire, is complaining that Democrats have all the money in the race. Like are you wealthy or not? (I’m pretty sure that’s obvious at this point) Is there a personal limit a person can spend on their own campaign? If so I take back half the laughs till later.
