        You have data to back that up I assume?

        Biden had polling in his hands that said Trump would get 400 electoral votes against him on the day he decided to run for a second term. Then he held on just long enough to make certain we would have no primary and be stuck with a candidate who couldn’t shake the stink of his presidency.

        Harris lost the popular vote by over 4-million votes. There aren’t that many “leftist extremists” in the whole damn country, and only a small subset of those wouldn’t have voted for Harris.

        The vast bulk of those who stayed home were left leaning apolitical normies. Most of the country fits in that group.

          A candidate who couldn’t make it to the first primary in her last campaign for this position too! I felt what I could only describe as “meta-unease” about her.

          If I felt so unmotivated, how uninspired was everyone else?

          Also I think the racial rhetoric from the Dems is turning some Black voters off.

          Literally did the thing you criticized them for.
