I thought this in 2016, and it appeared to be true in 2020, when Biden won by about 35,000 votes. I think the demographics are not on our side. Young males are trending conservative. And the DNC running a very old man is not playing well with young people. Also, many 20-somethings are pissed that they can't buy houses and find economic stability and they understandably blame the party in the White House. |
Honestly never should have put Biden in for his first term. He was clearly too old and lacked the cognitive skills then and it's playing out now. Like you said-made the bed. |
Yep. The Supreme Ct will take 30+ yrs to flip. |
The panic should be over the Rs cheating and trying to suppress the vote. They know they can’t win free and fair elections. Look at what has happened since 2017. Because of Trump the senate Rs lost majority control, the Rs barely have a majority in the house. Look at special elections this year. Not looking good for Rs at all. And look closely at what happened in the Ohio special election. The R candidate won, but not by much. Trump won that by double digits.
Women are pissed off and we are a huge voting block. We will come out and we will come out strong on election day and that should give the Rs plenty to worry about. |
Yep. Should be a clear and easy victory, but it won’t be. We have a uniquely bad candidate. |
That is hoe DNC rolls. Obama makes a call and - no primaries, no voting and no democracy - democracy that Democrats scream is so important this year that you should crawl over broken glasses to vote. How pathetic DNC and the rest of the grifters are. |
let’s get this straight. if Trump wasn’t running for president in 2020 Biden would’ve stayed retired. If the Rs had the guts to put a decent candidate forward we wouldn’t be here now. We should thank Biden for running and getting us out of that Trump debacle. Do you have pandemic amnesia too, like many others seem to as well? Well I don’t and that was a hellish time because we had a sociopath for a president that only cared about himself and winning reelection. |
the dnc is pathetic? how about the RNC for having the same crazy candidate run for a THIRD time?!?! Don’t you get it. if they had the decency to put a normal candidate forward we wouldn’t be in this situation. Biden would happily retire to DE. |
No, democrats want power and to keep power however they can get it. |
Admittedly, not much. I hope/believe we are at the low point of what has been a very long, slow burn reaction to civil rights gains by women, people of color, LGBTQ folks, etc., coupled with the demographic change of the US, and a turn towards ruthless capitalism. I'm not sure the current Democrats in charge have what it takes but I am hopeful that the next generation does. The religious kooks are already outnumbered and that's only going to continue as they double down on dumb ideas. Most of this country is centrist. I do think Democrats have to buckle down on their local, county, state level game and be reasonable but unapologetic. Think Obama. Stop trying to win the culture war. It's a manufactured crisis machine and someone needs to call it out as such. |
I didn’t say it would be easy but if the same pattern for voting continues the Rs should panic and they probably are (just not putting it out there like the Ds). |
Yep. Time to come to terms with a lucky Trump presidency and pick a better candidate next time. You’ll be fine, just like last time |
Nope. That’s the Rs because they are willing to cheat and suppress the vote. Just ask Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, Cheesebro to name a few! |
DNC should really consider changing their name at this point. Take the "Democratic" out. They are anti-democratic. |
that’s exactly what happened, we are witnessing the fallout. |
