That sounds right to me but is both a little hopeless (I guess we’ll just flip flop the presidency term-to-term forever?) and disagreeing with the premise of “pro-corporatism” from the OP.

Sorry who is saying this? The judge making the ruling?

Weird question, were there any elections in between those years? If so, why did they get left out?

Either Joe Biden wasn’t “pro-corporate” or there was some other similarity to the 2016 and 2024 candidates that fits better…

There are no numbers that say being less moderate would have won the election for Harris.

“Voters who voted for the winner got what they wanted” uh-huh…

A couple guys tried that during the campaign IIRC.

Every interest group in the Democratic party after a loss: “See? It’s because [Candidate] didn’t agree with ME enough!”

Maybe if they did your idea the loss would have been worse.

Weird you didn’t post this before the election results came in, since it was so obvious.

I have deep sources telling me he got more votes.

Assuming…you know…Biden will lose his record for oldest president ever and the gerontocracy continues.

Gotta think 2029 brings the biggest drop in age for a long time, JFK was 26 years younger than Eisenhower. We could beat it with a 56 year old in 2029. Vance would break that record if by election or…you know…but I think Whitmer would be 56 exactly. Wes Moore, Buttigieg, Josh Shapiro would all break it.

Literally every former president says “promises made, promises kept.”

This is one of the more normal things he has said recently. Several quotes talking about literal demons coming after him. He might need whatever therapy program Glenn Beck joined.

I exclusively use rage comic memes to express myself. Does that date me? Fffffuuuuuuuuuuuu

But monkeys never ask questions.

Science has yet to determine if monkeys would be able to type “wherefore art thou Romeo?”

Not another one knight stand!

It’s honestly very funny to imagine any US Senator thinks of themselves in these action hero terms. Like Mitch McConnell heard about it and put on a bandana and got his lasso.

Text generation is Frozen Yogurt now.

Noticeably worse, but you can have so much more.

Got more toots than Mastodon.

I could see it either way. The competing visions for ancient evil: Murdering children for asking questions, or the existence of unmarried women.

If AOC’s too Capitalist for ya I got bad news about 95% of America.
