ALL third party candidates in the last 50 years have always lost everything. Also, Kamala wasn’t running for house or senate.

She was running for Presidency. And lost. Badly. As her party lost both houses.

Pick any third party, they won just as much as Kamala did - and didn't spend a billion and a half to do so.

What, so you and I are as successful at federal elections as any third party?

I mean - okay. But some idiots gave them $200 Million for that. We did it for free, apparently.

I’m saying they’re an unworkable idea at almost any price.

I mean, yeah, I've won as many delegates as Kamala ever has, so . . .

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Can I have some of your $200 million? Or were you one of those low-effort third parties.

[-] mattyroses@lemmy.today 4 points 3 weeks ago

That's the point - my candidate didn't need $200 million to do just as well as Kamala did in results.

Well it’s one of those technically true things that’s not really true.

Your candidate has no name recognition, got no press, made no waves, and had no chance. As in baseball, at the end of the season all teams lose. Except one.

But it’s not baseball.

Meanwhile Kamala had all the press, and made no waves and had no chance, losing even the popular vote to an insane game show host and disgraced former president.

She did manage to grab and waste the space of opposition, ensuring the GOP victory was complete.

No, it's not baseball. In baseball, when you fuck up this bad, people don't die. Here, they do. And you hogs are chomping at the bit to do it again.

Me, I'm personally fine - I saw the way this wind was blowing when Biden won the primary in 2020, and started making plans to leave the US then. Which I've already done.
