Do you know who got the second most for a president ever? Trump in that same election. Which is all slightly undercut by the way population works since percentage-wise it actually wasnât that dramatic of a victory historically speaking, but there was also an unprecedented, once-in-a-lifetime event happening in 2020 that was being egregiously mishandled by the sitting administration. The same administration that later beat Kamala miserably by the way.
I love how you can acknowledge the fact that we dealt with and unprecendented, once in a lifetime event that the Dems took advantage of and elected the most progressive President since FDR, yet you will never acknowledge the unprecendented, once in a lifetime event of that President being forced to drop out 100 days out of election day.
I mean Biden should have dropped out sooner. That absolutely hampered her chances but it is what it is. Donât get me wrong I did vote for her. I just think the DNC looks like an exclusive club to voters and that disconnect is loud. By not running on working class issues their messaging is cheapened and theyâre too easily coaxed into debates about identity politics and hot button issues.
Thatâs the historical power of the left since the early 20th century. Losing the rust belt is a massive failure on the part of the democrats that shouldnât have happened and the consequences were dire. The insider trading and looking like a rehearsed, disaffected âcentristâ corporate entity isnât a good look for a party purportedly built on pro labor policies and equal opportunity.
My issue isnât their centrism itâs their lack of grass roots leadership and elitism. We vote for the same people dude you donât need to call me names and shit you donât know me.

He lost the popular vote in the primaries both times he ran. He never had a chance because he's a dogshit politician.
