Joe really knew how to handle trump. When trump yapped and yapped, Joe basically just went “dang man, can you shut the fuck UP” and it worked for a term 🙏
Sure, but his brain was soup by 2024. That’s kinda the main reason people are pissed with the Dems, because they hid this until Joe shit the bed for millions to see — during a debate, no less.
Kamala’s campaign was mostly failed by bad advisors: Clinton staffers and James Carville types who hadn’t won an election in 20 years, they were the ones who made them triangulate, not break from Biden on policy, and even move to the “middle” by getting the Cheneys to tour with them. They retreated the “weird” attack and “we’re not going back” slogan, even as people kept using the former online and chanting the latter at rallies.
They ratfucked her campaign about as hard as Trump is now ratfucking the country.
You’re right. Harris would have likely won in 2016. Now everyone’s brain is soup from all the mental masturbation caused by the sloppification of media. The tabloids won, in a spiritual sense. Feels like we’re in a death cult, or at least that life is a lot cheaper. All the stable democracies on the verge of electing far right psychos, won’t be long before we start fighting each other like the good ol’ days — and the people will cheer for carnage just to feel something again.
Its the people dude. People ratfucked the country. Not the candidates, not the advisors, not the campaigns, not Biden, not kamala, not DNC. They all did a decent job considering the circumstances they were in. They all reacted the best they could in an unprecedented scenario of a braindead zombie electorate. Its amazing people still can’t be bothered with this simple fact.
Nobody wants to be a candidate for the left. Have you seen what we do to people we like. I’ve seen people here calling Jon Stewart a fascist. We cook our own alive. Republicans have files on every possible candidate. We have no loyalty. Imagine a hockey team where every player physically and verbally abuses every coach they get. At some point nobody wants to coach your team
Damn right we aren’t loyal to politicians. Are you looking for a leftist Trump? Jon Stewart is not the “left” so I’m not sure why you’re mentioning him at all.
The left is not looking for a coach. We are hiring an employee.
Honestly? They are. America is so right-wing that “The Left” encompasses a wide spectrum of ideologies that would all have their own political parties in Europe. Socialists have as much in common with liberals as liberals do with centrists, yet the Dems expect the first two to vote for them while they try to court the conservative leaning side of the centrists.
And this is why we’re never going to win. You’re not even playing the game. You’re preaching on a pedestal of quick sand. Trying to yell how morally better you are while your sinking is a bad position to be in. Maybe the reason why fascists win is because the opposition continues to act like they’re better when you need to break free of your base instinct. Like ants in a death spiral. We all circle tighter and tighter into our groups defensively.
A big part of why they’re winning in my opinion is not their appeal but a rejection of the left. And it’s becoming clear that maybe that’s a smart choice given that the left can’t accomplish anything.
No it isn’t. Show me an example where the left has won recently?
If the amount of ground lost in the past 10 years isn’t a wake up call then you all deserve it. You all keep calling everyone dumb while you’re being beat and you refuse to recognize it. You’re not losing because they’re just good at things. You’re losing because you are the dumb ones.
You joke, but can you honestly tell me this place wouldn’t be full of people making trolley problem ““arguments”” about the obviously correct choice to make?
One track is made from subgrade steel and has a risk of derailing the trolley. The other is filled with explosives and shrapnel. Do you change the track?
Now that everyone has been reminded about trump, the dnc can run the same candidates from before and people will know to go with it this time, right?
Hey, how about run better candidates? You’d think losing to the worst human being in existence would suggest trying something new.
Hey, Trump may be shipping Americans to El Salvador, but worst human being in existence is a bit of a stretch.
After all, Obama ate a hot dog with Dijon fucking mustard.
Don’t forget that time he wore a tan suit! Or when he didn’t wear an American flag pin that one time. What a commie.
He then showed his true colors, just how much he despises the hard working American people and how badly he wants to live in Versailles
Nah let’s swipe Jeb Bush from the GOP
I’m sorry, but this era of old white men has got to stop.
Liz Cheney. It’s her turn.
She was a dynamite running partner for Harris

And then came Kamala

Yeah it is the candidates that were the problem, sure lol

Your opinion is dumb and you should feel bad.

Lol
I’d rather join The Resistance than The Collaboration.
The fuck are they going to do now? Keep defending the new status quo?
Just another turn of the ratchet.

I change it to whatever track I’m on. Komm, süßer Tod!
