    Well do not stop there, you should explain why the other side doesn’t get more votes. Because the opposition party is worthless at best. Being better than the other guy has never been enough to comfortably win elections and we already knew that but that is the only thing we are offering. The way to get elected is not to be half as Republican as the republicans, it is to be Champion popular reform and loudly fight for it. To call out villains by name, to have a, to have a fucking spine.

    We are doomed with this same opposition party and Power and they are despite the last election. We should all agree that’s a failure. Nobody answers for that? We allowed the same power Brokers to do the next one?

      Listen, we can’t upset the conservatives. If Republicans say they’re going to round up and deport all the migrants to a concentration camp in El Salvador, we need to say we’re going to only to it to half the migrants. If Trump wants to bomb China, we have to settle on bombing North Korea (again). If the Heritage Foundation has a plan to turn every public school into a Catholic Church, we need to sell people on turning them into Unitarian Churches.

      We are doomed

      Only because you didn’t vote harder! Nobody would be complaining right now if Kamala Harris had won. Everything would be happy and fine and good. But you people had to ruin her campaign by talking about medical debts and foreign wars. Damn you to hell! We could have had the a Neoliberal Utopia!
