I mean jesus christ there was a slight dip in turnout for the MAGA people but 15 million dropped off the face of the planet for the Dems from 2020. That’s gotta be fucking historic. I do hope this will be a radicalising moment for a lot of well-intentioned liberals.

They fumbled 4 states that Biden flipped, and Trump came pretty fucking close to flipping NY. If this doesn’t awaken people to the political dead end that is the Democratic party I don’t know what will.

    You also can’t just be like “Nothing comes to mind” when asked what you’ll be doing differently than your historically unpopular predecessor.

    Ettingermentum put it well on Hasan’s stream, the Dems lost because they insisted on doing the politics they want to do while consistently telling the electorate to go fuck themselves.

      Something did come to mind though: More genocide and more bipartisanship with the party she is saying is full of insane fascists

        They came so close to triggering a stochastic assassination of the Great Satan and backed out at the last moment.

        And even that, is so unsurprisingly liberal of them.
