I don't get how libs can tolerate being taken for granted like this. They're not being mature or practical - they're accepting mistreatment by an establishment sworn to serve them.

Trump and his supporters aren't better, but at least he's telling them what they want to hear. He at least made sure to get checks out to people and had his signature stamped on them.

I dunno, at least there's a strategy there. And Biden has had four fucking years and he's done nothing to get people motivated to vote or even register to vote. Not even going into his participation in genocide, it's just a lack of strategy to the point of self-sabotage.

And the entire Democratic party is complicit in all of it. It's like they want to lose, because all I'm hearing are about how bad trump is/was. And it's like, I was fucking there. And after three years, all they can offer is to give him a verbal reprimand and coverage on every major news network, speech, and social media posting.

It's just mind-blowing to think of the wasted time and energy on the part of the US political system.

Surely there'd be some sort of leadership reform or attempts at planning ahead in the wake of this latest spat of right wing bullshit? Some attempt at formulating a change of approach? Some attempt at adapting to the moment? These people are apparently smart, they shouldn't just be sitting there doing the same thing repeatedly against opposition that's readily been changing up their game plan and escalating my entire life to date. As things stand, the angle they've taken is deeply unserious and (almost consciously) no match for the looming threat of a right wing coalition that will continue to try and pull their shit for decades to come.

At this rate, we're gonna have the Heritage Foundation and Hillsdale freaks running this shit for sure.
