New Yorkers are still grappling with the reality of a closer election result in their city, as Donald Trump gained almost 100,000 more votes compared to his previous bids. The gains were particularly significant in neighborhoods with large low-income or immigrant populations, which has been challenging for some progressives who campaigned for immigrant rights and a strong social safety net. The election has caused a reckoning for those who once lived in a progressive bubble, as they now have to think differently about the people around them. The shock of the election result has left many feeling gutted and betrayed.
