It was a focused campaign to get 15 million Democrats to sit it out. Democrats love to sit it out if their party isn't perfect, and the right know to look for wedge issues to split the party. This time, it was Gazza. What will it be next time? Will it even matter if the elections are rigged?
- I don't think those that sat it out are democrats. Leftists certainly but not democrats.
- Maybe don't ask people to compromise on genocide? Can the liberals stop blaming anybody else except themselves? Democrats got endorsement of Dick Cheney and also never had a real primary.
  
  Harris lost because you guys are MAGA Lite (tm), not actually democratic.
  
  Maybe don't be a single-issue voter?
