    People want change, people voted for change, as terrible of a change it is. That’s it, you don’t have to think further than that. Preserving the status quo at all costs is what got them in this situation…

    Now this is gonna sound crazy. But if you actively improve the material conditions of people’s lives I’m pretty sure they’ll vote for you.

      Biden did and he got the boot, along with all the Democrats. Trump didn’t and he won the popular vote.

      I don’t think doing good matters.

        I think doing tangible good matters.

        You can’t give tens of billions to green energy companies and expect any actual workers in the country to get richer.

        If he raised the min wage then poor people would tangibly benefit instead of the DNCs strategy of shouting down poor people when they say they can’t afford human needs

        Doing good definitely matters. Getting the message out that you did so apparently matters more.

        What we are seeing matters most though, is showing the other side did BAD.

          Thst’s been the dems whole platform for 8 years. “At least we’re not them.” Nobody wanted Biden, or Harris, we got stuck with those assholes and voted for them out of desperation. I know exactly what kind of people run the Democratic party. A bunch of old people who think they know everyhing just clinging to their positions. A bunch of old Karens.

    Nobody else seems to have the take that when the Democrats ran a woman for President, they lost both times. When they ran men they won, going back to 2008.

    Maybe the country isn’t ready to elect a woman.

      Funny how female Dem senators won in three of the swing states Kamala lost. Given the limited data, it’s hard to imagine how we could possibly have more evidence that you’re wrong.

      Your dataset is two, and they both ran with very similar strategies of moving right to try to appeal to moderate Republicans. Biden meanwhile had the enormous failure of Covid working to his advantage.

      Like - DO GOOD WORK ?

      I dunno, it seems like it should be more . . y’know. Specific. The first part anyway. “Don’t fuck with a primary” is pretty self-explanatory, but there are things the DNC has to do to run a primary, so we should probably get specifics for that too.
