The dems lost this election when unpopular senile Biden insisted on running again and no powerful Democrat stopped him

The dem message of "we won't do better but the other guy will do worse" failed. It was a bad message and it lost them the election against a terrible candidate. Voters need to be motivated to vote and that message isn't motivating enough

In this case if you pick just the burning building then the group keeping you in that building are saying "we can't let you out of there but you better support us or the guys with the molotovs will show up"

I understand that logically you'd pick option A but would you have enthusiastic support for the people keeping you trapped in the building?

Candidates have to get people motivated to vote and "we won't do better but the other guy will do worse" is not motivating enough. We saw how that plays out yesterday

Palestinians were very much already in danger. Both sides in america are so tied to Israel that biden refused to stand up to bibi even while he was openly campaigning for trump

When you run to the right, and the people who like right-wing policies already have a party giving them the policies they want, they're not gonna switch parties, and you're just going to alienate the parts of your base/coalition that are affected by those policies.

Campaigning primarily on being the lesser evil and maintaining status quo failed, you can tell people 1 choice is slightly better all you want but on election day we found out that you can't win that way. If the dem politicians actually want to win they'll try a different strategy next time

The trump 2020 border agenda that the dems adopted as their own campaign promise this time around

It has an impact on right wingers, not normies or center/left people

Social media lefties had no significant impact on this outcome. Twitter is not real life

The harris campaign decided to be pro-war and buddy up with incredibly unpopular warmonger dick cheney.

She put no significant distance between her foreign policy and trump's. If you really think lemmy lefties are the reason harris lost then you probably haven't been outside in a long time

Harris lost by significant margins. Lemmy lefties had no impact on this outcome.

Dick Cheney is incredibly unpopular across the board in America. Having him endorse your campaign is asking to lose

Maybe it was the Dems buddying up to the incredibly unpopular bush admin. Or using serial SAer bill Clinton on the campaign. Or calling trump a fascist then moving to the right on almost every issue so really they were just offering fascism-lite.

But no, blame the lefties who had no significant impact on the election and have been constantly telling you that the campaign is doomed and that it should change course if the stakes are really as high as you say

Defending the US is defending an evil imperial death machine. You just can't see that because the death machine benefits you

The US collapsing is in the world's best interest. If the collapse of the US causes chaos then it's what the US deserves for causing chaos everywhere else for so many decades

Is it ok if I criticize the current president?

Is he currently the president? Does he care who wins this election?

Biden cares more about Israel than the outcome of this election. He would rather lose to trump than stand up to Bibi

What did I say to warrant such a vicious reply

Why do you hate me so much

People asking simple questions makes you really mad
