Yeah which is why I am actually torn. I’m not sure whether voting Democrat is actually beneficial at this point. The fastest way to defeat Republicans may not actually involve the Democratic Party at all. It may simply be something that requires a few election cycles. People don’t like to admit something so painful, but that may be the truth.
In retrospect, we would have been a lot better off if Hillary lost 60-40 in 2016 instead of just barely losing. This has allowed the DNC to pretend they can still field viable presidential candidates. In truth, voting for a Democrat right now is as futile as voting for the green party. Neither are going to win.
They won because people were stick and tired of Trump fucking things up as usual. Not just his pandemic response, but everything.
But the American electorate have the memories of goldfish, so they herp derped their way to the polling stations to vote for Trump to save them from the inflation that he caused during his first term.
Just going to point out that Trump didn’t gain much support between 2020 and 2024, the reason the Dems lost is cause their numbers didn’t hold. Acting like he had some type of popularity gain is misleading at best.

The democrats won the election before this one… to jump from that to it is impossible for them to win is a massive overreaction.
They won because of covid.
And theres no massive upheavel or challenges facing people now?
