    Guess what, not everyone thinks that, and a good politician would actually promise to improve people’s lives instead of continually talking about how bad the other guy is.

    Trotting out the least popular Republicans ever as being on your side didn’t help either.

      not everyone thinks that

      Yes, obviously not everyone thinks fascism is an existential threat. Which is probably one of our greatest failures as a society, in terms of education.

        So, when you’re running, ostensibly to save democracy, you should probably offer those voters stuff that will turn them out. In 2020 Biden promised them a $2000 check, and that worked (even though he reneged on it afterwards).

        The only ones to blame are the Democrats. Trump got less votes than in 2020, so it’s not like he got more popular, the Democrats failed to get their base out. You can’t even blame the Greens this time.

        If the democrat party genuinely gave a shit they would of held a primary and nominated a qualified and popular candidate. They didn’t. They don’t care!

          indeed

          the democratic party never fought like it was existential threat and it showed. ‘Long as I did my best’ indeed biden, indeed.

            I just want you to note that at the bottom of the link you sent me it essentially says it’s written with chat gpt.

            It’s not trustworthy, though I agree with it.

              Its a video of a former obama official and the video is a primary source. Didnt really care about the textual contents of the page was just grabbing a source for the video. Whether jon is trustworthy source shrug id believe it though.
