Sure he's unpopular with progressives and the youth.
Most blue voters are older people more interested in the status quo and in any other country with a sane Overton window would be called conservatives.
And the idealism of youth can easily convince them that a 3rd party vote is a meaningful protest against the DNC's lack of progressive action.
Biden won't win without progressives and youth. Pandering to the center is how you lose. Trump won bc he did not play to the center.
Just more evidence how monumentally short-sighted and ignorant a huge chunk of humanity is.
Either Biden wins or we don't have elections anymore and trumpty dumpty is really masks off about it now on international television,
And if that happens, there's gonna be a lot of 'progressives and youth' regretting their choices when donny spray-tan invokes martial law.
I'm sure their idealism will keep them warm and safe when the purges start.
Let's say Biden wins. What will you, US citizens, do when the next Trump comes? Keep voting the lesser evil?
>Either Biden wins or we don’t have elections anymore
do you have some proof of this?
Project 2025 and the fact that donny spray-tan has multiple times in the last few weeks stated on public and on camera that he will be a day 1 dictator.
p2025 doesn't say they plan on not having elections any more, and neither did trump
Hmmm let me check your post history.
Oh yeah, you are so fucking blocked.
I thought your type wasn't allowed here?
By progressive and youth, you mean millennials, right? Who are as old as.... 40.
? No?
What even gave you the impression that I made that assumption?
Also: I'm in my late 40s so again, double ?what?
