I literally do blame the Democrats for Trump, and if you don't, you weren't paying attention.
Plenty of us were critiquing Clinton's campaign on those merits and were consistently talked down to in shocker the same way we're being talked down to now. Shocker, she lost. I remember saying a few weeks before the election "We're about to get Brexited." I put my vote down for Clinton, because Trump is fucking insane, and that was clear before he was President. It was clear in the fucking 1980's.
Being able to critique our leaders is supposed to be what is the difference between us and conservative voters. They're the cult who unquestioningly believes all the bullshit that comes out of Trump's mouth and diapers. I find it weird that people think we should be more like them in regards to our leaders like that would be a good thing.
Tribal thinking is a sign of lack of maturity. If you don't think being, "better than TFG." is a pathetic excuse for a party platform, you're either a child or utterly incompetent at governing, or both.
Similarly, if anyone assumes someone attacking Democrats, a center-right party, MUST be coming from the right ... they're painfully ignorant of politics in general.
Too bad this country is full of immature children that managed to reach adult age... Regardless of how bad the Dems are, they're still the only valid choice for someone making moral decisions. No, Biden is anything but perfect, but literally no one else can win that isn't outright evil ... partly because Democrats run a pathetic party and don't actually fight for democracy.
Yep. That's what makes it so downright abusive for them to dangle fascism over our heads like a threat if we don't get behind their milquetoast bullshit half-ass glad-handing fascists fuckery. They know we don't have a choice so they don't even fucking try.
The job of a US politician seems to be convincing their donors and constituents that they will protect each from the other.
Campaigning on policy that benefits the voters goes against the class interests of the donors, but campaigning on "the other guy is bad" keeps the donors happy.
"Not Trump" isn't a pathetic position, it's a smart one. There's plenty of Republicans that don't like Trump (See 43% Haley in NH yesterday), and getting into specifics will only remind them that "Not Trump" is a liberal commie Democrat.
If you want to know what Biden is running on other than that, you can find it here:
A lot of people are confused about this kind of thing and appear to imagine that winning an election means that you get to do everything you want. It doesn't. All it means is that you can try and get some of the things you want done, and you better choose them wisely because you have limited political capital and a set window of time. That's just the way it is, especially in such a polarized country. A better way to view political accomplishments is through the lens of what's actually possible as opposed to what you really want. It's childish to think otherwise.
Our country is basically in a low-level mostly non-violent state of civil war and people are crying because Biden can't or won't give them everything they want? Really? WTF is wrong with you? The plane is about to crash into the fucking mountain! All the lights are flashing bright red! We either come together and stop this thing or we're all going to be in for a very bad time.
This is how democracies die. We either unite and stand together, or we'll all "hang" separately.
They don't have a real platform. You have to fight for your positions, not give them up before anything is even in committee.
When they CONSTANTLY pretend Republicans are acting in good faith when they are not, how is someone with a functioning brain going to expect them to deal with reality? They cannot even see how they're being manipulated on the daily.
Democrats are useful idiots for Republicans. Little more.
