(DCNF)—NewsNation host Chris Cuomo argued Thursday that President-elect Donald Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris because of voter backlash against excessive liberal ideology.
Trump’s election victory was fueled partly by increased support from Hispanic and black men. Cuomo, on “The Chris Cuomo Project,” suggested voters cast their ballots for Trump over Harris based on “a gross violation of norms” that they find “unacceptable.”

“You are forcing new social norms on people in this country. ‘No, I’m not, we’re just doing what’s fair. Trans people have rights too.’ Yes, but if it’s communicated as if you must be forced to accept and be indoctrinated with ideas that you do not share — is that fair? ‘That’s not what we were doing.’ That’s how they felt you were treating them about it,” Cuomo said. “That’s the women in sports thing. It’s not that it happens a lot, like immigrant crime. It’s not that it happens a lot. It’s that the fact that it happens at all, to them, is a gross violation of norms and unacceptable. And you find it okay, and they believe that is wokeism run amok.”
“What is woke? They don’t even know what it is. Here’s what they believe it is, and it just won the presidential election,” he continued. “The economy won the presidential election, and concerns that all go under the umbrella of wokeism — which, to people who voted for Trump, is a set of ideas that messes with traditional values, but more importantly, new ideas that are being forced on them to make their own, even if they don’t agree.”
Cuomo asserted lenient immigration policies are an example of “wokeism” that voters rejected.
“We don’t have an open border, but it does meet that suggestion. And politics is about hyperbole. Politics is about persuasion. Politics is about using perception as a hedge against reality, and perception generally wins,” he said. “So when you undo what was working and allow people to flood through, you feed into the idea that you want it that way. And then you get the Great Replacement Theory and all this other bullshit. But it is an extension of what they see as wokeism.”

“Yes, it’s also national security. It’s also immigration on its own. But it is this exaggerated liberalism, this exaggerated laxity, this exaggerated relaxing of law and order for some other value system,” he added. “Trans is that. Censorship is that.”
Former MSNBC host Chris Matthews on Wednesday also criticized Democrats for their “open border” policy, arguing it made numerous voters “very angry” and contributed significantly to Harris’ defeat.
Moreover, Democratic strategist James Carville on Wednesday noted “the woke era” was a factor that hurt Democrats in this election.
“We got beyond it, but … the image stuck in people’s minds that the Democrats wanted to defund the police, that they wanted to empty prisons,” he said. “You know, the immigration stuff, obviously again a big mistake, but more importantly, it created to the perception of disorder.”
