      The sad thing is, far more people downright hate Trump than people who even tolerate him in the slightest.

      Tyranny of the minority, here we go.

        Tyranny FROM the minority more like it. The problem is, the people that can help this not happen, aren’t going to life a finger to help.

        Then they’ll whine and complain about the results of their indication for the next four years until 2028 when they’ll again- do nothing in “protest.”

      Blaming the left for Biden’s shift to the right during his presidency? I don’t understand why liberals and the Democratic Party is still trying to win over conservatives and shunning leftists and progressive. But blame us for shunning us away.

        Because our shitty electoral system downright requires that the president bend to the whims of at least a few flyover states.

          The poll data will make you ROFL when they translate to a reality. While I will be unROFLing, because “even I told you so” is bitter when people are actually hurting.

          I recommend you start organizing and getting to better know your neighbours if you already haven’t. These connections might come useful.

        The current Democratic Party is built upon shunning leftism and progressivism for bipartisanship with conservatives. The Compromised or centrist policy at the maximum. Same as it has been since the housing collapse and recession.

        Biden never shifted. His platform is exactly as advertised. He was the moderate center left candidate that promised to be a continuation of Obama’s presidency, and that’s pretty much what we have. Voters in 2020 liked Bernie’s idea in spirit, but didn’t like his campaign, supporters, or the way he wanted to approach his big policies and they also didn’t want anything to do with trump. Biden was that in between candidate.

        Also why are leftists are crying victim? Why can’t you just accept that your views and policies are simply just that unpopular?
