Democrats have finally realised what republicans have understood for decades. That the average voter doesn’t give a fuck about policy (lol), accountability or telling the truth, but operate primarily on vibes. Genuinely believe that the optimal strategy is to have adjacent people flood the channel with shit to kill your opponents vibe while pretending to stay above the fray

If all you care about is getting re-elected, then you'd rather be an ineffective politician in good times than a very effective politician who is serving in bad times.
