    It’s not entirely wrong. Biden is losing to one of the worst humans to ever live…top 1000 out of 20 bn or so.

    The D’s need to take a hard look at why.

    Just saying Yuk isn’t going to get Biden elected.

      well, I think the shitty thing about Carville’s take is that he’s directing blame to people who are likely doing good things rather than highlighting the actual problems and what solutions could look like. If you’ve gotta meet the electorate where they are, then find out where, don’t presume that you (ie Carville) are in the same place, and go from there. Nebulously blaming a bunch of people is likely just a vague reactive take on what’s obvious (that Trump resonates with a good deal of Americans) rather than anything helpful.

      • Centrists like Biden and this guy support genocide in gaza,
      • Biden et al just ran so far right on border security and immigration the far right is trying to figure out what else they can ask for besides machine gun turrets and pillboxes.
      • While its “recovering”… most americans are still hurting. pitching the economy as “fixed” isn’t helping him.
      • He’s courting Nikki Hailey voters who are never actually going to support any one whose not a republican; flashing a giant birdie to even moderately progressive democrats.

        And all that’s true…

        Like how bad do we hate gaza? Do we kill them slowly or with nukes.

        How bad do we hate immigrants? Do we starve them at the boarder or cut them up with razors and drown them?

        How many fucking hand outs can we give? The middle class is simply fucked with either choice. I get to pay for Musk or petty crime.

        The Haily comment is spot on.
