Obama ran on “hope” and energy. It was enough after Bush’s disastrous wars. So he enacted health care reform. And what was his thanks? To lose the House of reps for the next 6 years. Plus the senate in years 7 and 8. Thanks for not showing up for any more progress left voters!

Biden ran center, that’s how he won. Once in office he acted left. And what was his thanks? Lose the house. And more thanks: what did the polls show? That he was going to lose. The left didn’t show up, and wasn’t going to show up.

See you in hell ‘God bless this house’.

I’m not exactly on steam much, what tf are they taking about?

Well if I understand your run on sentence correctly, I already said it: the left either 1) doesn’t exist (in meaningful size), or 2) will never show up for the Dems. Take your pick, doesn’t really matter. The Dems will never, ever, never again rely on the left showing up for the Dems.

And they will go to the center. That’s the only time they ever win. That’s how Clinton won. That’s how Obama won. That’s how Biden won. Every time they rely on the left for the Dems they lose. That’s how Gore lost. That’s how Hilary lost. That’s how Kamala lost.

Yeah it was obvious I’m saying the left doesn’t show up for the dems when it’s a 2 party system.

You would think that courting the most dedicated voting demographic

They’re either tiny or they don’t show up for the Dems. Every time the dems (jfc do I have to add that every time?) rely on the left, they lose.

lose elections to Trump twice.

Hillary said she’d have a map room to fight climate change. You know that existential issue that the left totally says it will show up for for the dems, right? And they didn’t show up for the Dems.

Biden saw that and ran center. And he won. But Biden did left things anyway. And what did polls show? That the left wasn’t going to show up for the Dems.

Harris relied on the left to show up for the Dems and they couldn’t even do that for the dems when their own human rights and democracy was on the ticket.

The only time the Dems win is when they go to the center. After this, thy will never ever rely on the left again, because they never show up for the Dems.

I hope you see why people don’t add for the Dems every single time. Because it’s a pain in the ass and a mess.

Voted but voted for who? Jill Stein? I’m obviously saying they didn’t show up for Dems.

And the difference I see between right and left are about the same. Like those 4 points for left and right are really pretty much the same percentage. And that’s percentage, so it’s what I’ve said before that either 1) the left doesn’t exist (or is tiny), or 2) they don’t show up. Either way.

And finally I think Biden won because he went to the center and got those voters. The stressed sideliners in that graphic.

The so called rachet effect is because the left never shows up, so the Dems go to the center to find voters. The left doesn’t like this so they cry rachet.

It’s because sarcasm doesn’t work well over text.

Senior people are expensive.

Maybe I should say it’s reached a real tipping point.

X is full of white supremacists.

Someone just has to tell Trump that’ll put China ahead of us in research. We want to be the best, right? USA USA USA.

Fuck national rights amiright.

I say she relied on the left coming out for abortion rights and democracy. They couldn’t even come out for that.

I’d say they vote based on matching identities “(s)he’s like me”.

Rallies don’t turn into voters apparently.

I still see them around. But it will be really quiet in January and February.

That was uh something.

When they don’t have all 3 (house of reps Senate and presidency) they are forced to reach across the aisle. And they’ve had all 3 for, drumroll please, 4 of the last 24 years. Or 6 of the last 32 years. Or 6 of the last 44 fucking years. Don’t want them to reach across the aisle? Then give them consistent and overwhelming victories.

What part of “mass deportations” do people not understand? Trump told us what he’s going to do. His cabinet pick told us what he’s going to do. They’re going to do it.
