It’s sad that, even at the good churches, God still refuses up to 3 miracles just to make sure they remember who’s boss.

This is a good example of the type of (nominally leftist) person who is essentially unpersuadable. How are you supposed to convince these guys to vote when they don’t see a meaningful difference between MAGA and normie Democrats? They don’t live in reality.

Let me also say, you are right that blaming specific groups of voters is not a good campaign strategy. I’m not suggesting we go knock on doors and berate people who identify as leftist but refuse to vote for Democrats. Of course it’s better to try and persuade them.

That being said, I can personally come to the conclusion that 2024 was in part their fault, and it does no harm to tell the truth on an obscure web forum that maybe 100 people will read.

It’s impossible for any party to appeal to a majority of voters on everything. If Democrats could have done something to be more appealing to greens than Stein was, then whatever that something was would have turned off some other segment of the coalition, possible losing net votes. Winning a national election requires broad appeal, and being the only viable non-fascist, pro-democracy ticket should have been reason enough for any decent person to vote for the Democratic candidate. I don’t know what these greens want, but not living in a Christo-fascist hellhole is apparently not a high priority for them. Fuck them to hell.

Wait, I thought they represented “less than 1% of the vote” and therefore don’t matter. But Democrats’ failure to pander to them cost them the election too? I’m confused.

She certainly tried to help get Trump elected. Just because she’s ineffective doesn’t make her not a piece of shit.

Probably some specific memory Trump has of seeing a cup with “too many pencils, why do you need so many pencils???” 40 years ago. Just like the doll thing. There are more modern, relevant examples of discretionary spending he could have chosen, but his brain is mush from 1985.

Lol funny but he’s right stocks are to expensive Tesla is 12$ a pack here. Better get a hobby 🤣🤣🤣

Texas is still a red state, so statewide races like Ted’s US Senate seat are a stretch. Though Beto amazingly got within 2 points in 2018!

That’s pretty messed up, but according to the article they only sent that letter out to a couple thousand people, which is not many in a state that size. It’s going to be hard for them to mess with voting eligibility on a large scale. Even stuff like this (which could be illegal), where they make some people jump through extra hoops to be able to vote, could end up depressing more Republican votes than Democratic ones. The big political realignment of the past 10 years has be largely along education lines - those with 4-year degrees or more sorting to Democrats, and those with less education sorting to Republicans. This flips the old system (poor Dems/rich Republicans) on its head. Things like voter ID laws, which are intended to inconvenience and depress the vote of people who don’t have their shit together, aren’t going to disproportionately hurt Democrats the way they used to, and could in fact have the reverse effect.

Red states are redrawing their districts based on 2024 margins. This may bite them in the ass, especially in Texas, if they expect their massive gains with Latinos to hold after the ICE horror show and terrible economy. All of their new R+8 gerrymandered districts might not be as safe as they thought in a D+10 midterm.

“Whuh?”

We won’t comment on an ongoing investigation

Either that, or that cat has a nasty skin condition

It’s part of the FBI’s ongoing investigation into Democrats who associated with Epstein
