    Maybe if you’re running against pedohitler, don’t do shit that’s unpopular with your base just because you really want to.

      Oh yeah, the DNC is crappy controlled opposition that normally exists to make conservative ideas seem liberal/leftist to americans.

      … But that still means tens of millions of people actively choose the nightmare over the boring uninspiring candidate. Both things are true and both are bad. :/

        Democrats knew they couldn’t win with a pro-genocide candidate and refused to change anyway. They preferred trump to telling netanyahu no. All centrists got the only thing they wanted in 2024. They just blame the left they have always hated for the negative domestic consequences of their unwillingness to change.
