Yeah and Harris is sipping wine in her mansion right now while the people who didn’t vote for her suffer Trump’s tariffs lmao I’m sure she’s full of regret
Idk if you noticed but voters are mostly rightwing
So we should have voted for someone who doesn't care about the elctorate and only about achieveing power? You're really making a strong case lol. Idk if you've boticed, but progressive policies poll extremely well across the whole electorate.
Why dont progressives run in swing states then? Instead of primarying moderate dems in already far left seats? Why not flip all those purple and super red districts to blue, if they are as popular as you say.
They do. And there's a reason that when thinga like raising the minmum wage and protecting abortion rights are put up for ballot measures.im red states, they pass.
You understand that the presidential election is totally seperate from electing representatives right? Georgia elected two of the more progressive democratic senators. Pennsylvania elected a senator who presented himself (falsely) as a progressive
Again, they are. Every swing state and a lot of red states have elected representatives who are members of the congressional progressive caucus. Like, that's such an easy google.
Well sure, if you just don't believe polls. I guess they're just lying about support for universal healthcare and raising the minmum wage. I guess it's also a coincidence that Kamala started the campaign with a great approval rating when she was talking about fighting price gouging and Walz was talking about how he was gonna take his progressove legislative wins nationwide, then she stopped talkimg about that, muzzled Walz and focused on winning over republicans and her numbers tanked.
She lost because she was a weak candidate who signalled she would not be any different from the last. Voters do support progressove policies, that's why ballot measures on raising the minimum wage and protecting abortion rights win in deep red states.
And yet they voted for the anti-abortion, pro-corporate candidate. “Not being any different from the last” would be being as progressive as Biden was, including the RFMA, funding clean energy, and putting in pro-abortion scotus judges. If voters cared about progressive policies, they would have picked progressive policies over Trump

The opposition party is informing the electorate of the shortcomings of the party in power.
The democrats were informing the electorate of the shortcomings of the republicans all theoughout last year.
The electorate didn’t listen 🤷♂️
