Well sure, so you get a milqtoast candidate on the one habd and a literal rapist, felon, liar and entitled billionare kiddy fiddler on the other. You k iw who yoi want on charge ? A compentnet administrator reluctant to make decisions becase only an idiot would be assured at the level with so much nuance .

But you know what, lets choose the felon becase they're "much the same"

The Dems are asshats for sure, the GOP is striaght up fucking Nazis, voters who can't tell the difference are the real concern. This isnt even lesser evil.

milquetoast is being awfully genererous. She supports enabling genocide just like trump does-- which is flatly against many of existing US laws. She and Biden and Trump should all be in prison. Are we a nation of laws or arent we?

I get where you're coming from, I do, but milquetoast is an optimistic definition.

There are multiple sources claiming that internal polls showed trump winning 400 electoral college votes while Biden was still running. Straight up LYING to donors, constituents, and media. A "competent administrator" would've held an honest primary. Not tried to shove this man uncontested down everyone's throats.

It's seems incredibly disingenuous to put this all on the voters. At some point you need to admit that the entire democratic party straight up shot themselves in the foot. It also does NOT seem to be a stretch to assume that it was well known in inner circles that he was NOT in his right mind anymore and had NO GOOD REASON to run again at his age.

I agree with you. Trump sucks. A paper bag could've defeated Trump. so why the hell didn't the democrats just walk down to cub foods and grab one, instead of refusing to get off their asses, rummaging in their couch cushions looking for something to throw in the ring?

Dems need to stop blaming the voters, do some introspection, and admit to themselves that they completely screwed this up all on their own.

This, as much as I want the entire DNC to carry my coffin at my funeral so that they can let me down one list time, I'd rather have someone who has no idea how to drive behind the wheel than someone who's actively trying to wreck the car.

This is what Democrats don't get.

Tens of millions of Americans are working 2-3 jobs at 80-100 hours a week for the privilege of starving and keeping a roach-infested roof over their head.

They are already living in fascism, and Democrats seem even more out of touch because they just ignore it and profit themselves.

You get a milquetoast candidate more receptive to the donor class of rapists, felons, liars, and entitled billionaire kiddy diddlers than her own party base. And then you get the King of the Crooks rallying tens of millions of con artists and pedos and misogynists to his banner.

Why was Harris campaigning with Liz Cheney, Jeff Flake, and Michael Bloomberg? Why was she staunchly aligned with the Israelis and Saudis on foreign policy, in direct defiance to her base? Why did she move backwards on public health care? Why was she shilling crypto on in the campaign trail?

None of her voters wanted this shit.

Democrats need to jingle keys in front of voters, not spout policy

[-] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

What policy did they spout? Tweaks to Obamacare? Means-tested narrowly-defined tax benefits? More fracking? Everyone who isn't a billionaire is getting squeezed too hard, the order of the day is dramatic change. The democrats needed to promise hitting shit with hammers, and they offered to adjust things with watchmaker's tools.
