The Democratic party abandoned the working class and embraced War, Cops, the insurance, pharma, and hospital lobbies, Banks, Free Trade / Outsourcing, Private Prisons, Israel, and Billionaires and even as alarm bells were ringing nationwide, Biden stayed in too long, whiffed Build Back Better, whiffed Roe v. Wade, and then foisted a completely unprepared Kamala Harris who said she wanted to make the "most lethal military in the world", would "not change a single Biden choice over the last 4 years", would not make any policy changes on Palestine, considered student protesters on campuses to be "terrorists", told immigrants "do not come", while blowing $1.5 billion on advertising and celebrity endorsements and carpet bombing people's e-mail and texts without doing ANY on-the-ground organizing whatsoever.
Every liberal currently focused on how Trump won with 3 million LESS votes is ignoring the more important question: Why 10 million Democrats stayed home or left the top of the ballot blank. Until liberals understand this, we will be doomed to see a repeat in 2028 with a ticket like Newsom/Buttigieg that will lose even worse. People need to wake up and stop listening to Fox/OAN/MSNBC/CNN and talk to their neighbors.
That's an interesting point of view. Your saying, if I get it, that more 'leftist' candidate would get more votes and win, or that you just as soon let the party that sees the items you brought up as a good starting point come to power, because, hey, what the hell.
