I think the public understands just fine. It is just people are indifferent to Biden at this point, and It seems Dems can’t connect to average people. “Hey you’re not struggling, you’re doing great now.” is not a winning message while people can’t afford food and rent. Then you got the media giving infinite Trump coverage.
Trump is in a position where nothing does anything negative towards him. It is crazy he is able to run after all that has happened. The lesser evil and not being Trump is not good enough to reach average people.
Seriously. If one more Democrat leans out of his ivory tower to shout down at me to tell me that I’m totally rich and safe now while I’m paying three hundred bucks for a weeks groceries for my family on the same money I made five years ago I’m going to lose my goddamned mind.
What doesn’t make sense to me, is that even though you’re right, I don’t see how that would make someone vote for Trump who already wasn’t going to vote for him.
They aren’t going to vote for Trump, they just aren’t going to vote for Biden, and they aren’t going to tell their friends to vote, and they aren’t going to get out the vote in their communities or drive people to the polls.
Imagine a politically active person last election went to their mosque or temple and made sure that their elders had a ride to the polls and the young people got registered to vote and people understood the issues.
Now imagine that she decides that she isn’t going to put in those efforts for a person that rubber stamps genocide and lies about how poor everyone she knows has gotten.
Not one person in this story voted for Trump, but how many votes did Biden lose?
You need to stop seeing this as a binary problem because that’s exactly why Democrats keep losing against weak unpopular candidates.
The problem isn’t the left deciding to vote for trump. It’s the left fracturing between multiple candidates from (D) and (I) while trump’s people are all on board with him. It’s the exact thing that happened in 2016.
They want change, but they do not want to change. Many have always dem or rep so they vote out of habbit again and again. They complain about things getting worse and people offering solutions are regected in favor of a ‘solution’ they understand.
I think the main problem for the Democrats are apathy and people not voting at all, rather than people actually voting for Trump. The Trump voters will be the same, but they will actually vote.
“it is crazy he is able to run after all that has happened.”
It’s not that far fetched when you talk to anyone who listens to right wing media or religious channels. I just had the misfortune of getting into a political conversation my grandmother started and she only watches religious t.v and yet she was going on about “it’s so awful what they are putting Trump through, they’re just going after him in the courts because they don’t like him. Biden and all of them are criminals it’s so sad.”
Like for fucks sake the actual fucking criminal going to court, being proven to be a criminal (or at the very least running a fraudulent company), is somehow not a criminal, but the old dude who the right has been attacking forever and can’t find anything that’s real to pin him on is the “real” criminal…
There’s nothing surprising about all the support for Trump because we live in a society without a real functioning press. We live in a society of money hungry immoral assholes who will drive this world into the dirt if it means more money for them and their shareholders, that’s including CNN, MSNBC, ABC, you name it. They’re all guilty of abandoning their responsibility as the press in favor of their “responsibility” to make excessive profits as a corporation via eyeball catching PROPAGANDA.

Demonstrably false given the last 3 election cycles.
But yet they keep giving that asshole a megaphone and air time. That orange shithead only seems to fail up. I wish he wasn’t anymore.

The problem is that, even when Democrats win the popular vote, they still lose the election due to gerrymandering.
Yes The actual problem is they cheat
They want change, but they do not want to change. Many have always dem or rep so they vote out of habbit again and again. They complain about things getting worse and people offering solutions are regected in favor of a ‘solution’ they understand.

Dems are winning elections and have done so every cycle since 2016
A few more “victories” like that and we’re all going to be in the bread lines.

We are awash in propaganda.
Replacing Biden should be top priority for any Democrat if the concern of a Trump victory is this significant.
