    Man if only we had a way to read the temperature of the voting base to see if everyone who voted for Joe Biden still intended to do so. Some way to compare it to the temperature of the room back when he won to help make strategic decisions.

    Oh wait! We do! And it’s a poll

    You see the error in your thinking is that your opinion holds more weight than mine, based off what i can only assume is copeium. I based mine off his performance and polling data, our opinions do not carry the same weight.

        You are allowed to feel any which way you like about that or unicorns, but reality has a way of pushing back. If you don’t have any means of backing up your assertion, then none else should take your arguments or your condemnation of progressive voters seriously

            Apparently the apathetic vote is large enough to prevent a democratic victory.

            You can’t have it both ways either the progressive vote is too small to matter and they didn’t have an influence of Harris losing the election, or they are too massive to ignore and they must be pushed into voting against their interests or else its their fault the dems lost.

            Pick a lane.

                Eh~ some votes are more equal than others. It’s a progressive want to rectify that, with a change to the voting system.

                But also, yes, and if democrats want some of these votes, they are going to have to come to the table with something palatable, and it turns out that lies, and threats were not good enough. And you can hang the blame of the loss of the election squarely on the agent responsible, the Democratic Party.

                  We’ll have to agree to disagree because I blame Harris’s loss for everyone that voted against her either by voting Trump or third party and those who didn’t vote.

                    That’s a category error. The democrats are not owed anyone’s votes. The terms are set. It is the reality of things. Not sure how blaming progressives is going to get us to change our minds.
