        I fuckin hate to say it because it goes against my “I don’t wanna be that guy on the Internet”… but holy shit the Dems are doing everything they can to lose as well.

        I have never in my life seen a group of theoretically smart people snatching loss after loss from the jaws of victory.

        It is super hard to not think they’re all playing a game with us.

        If by some miracle they win it will only be, because people chose idiots over despots.

        I still think if they got 80% of the vote they’d find a way to lose.

          Moderates made a bet for their team to win. But not cover the spread.

          If they do too well. It translates to down ballot wins and they’d have the political power to do what voters want. Which is often the opposite of what their donors want.

          And they’d rather let Republicans win than piss off their shared donors.

          The only way the people running the DNC lose power. Is if a progressive wins and appoints new people to the DNC.

          It all makes perfect sense when you think like a power hungry capitalist who would do fine under a Republican president. The only true threat to them is “the left” because that’s what Dem voters want

      Empty meaningless statement that allows you to feel like you’re intelligent and you know something with actually thinking or putting any effort in.

          Their statement was empty and I pointed that out. I said nothing about anything being pointless, or even that they were wrong.

              Do you think lying about what I said proves something? I don’t get it.

                  You think pointing out that you lied, in an attempt to undermine my point, is meaningless? Lol dig up, my friend
