Democrat elites need to learn to pick a candidate people like more than they like.

ElatedVenusaur 11/05/20 12:16:51 AM #11:	BilalPowell posted... Feel like there's more than 1 right answer I voted other, for that reason. -Never count out racism/bigotry Trumps open, unvarnished racism obviously resonates with a disturbingly large proportion of white voters. Whatever you think the reason(s) for that is/are, thats deeply depressing. -Democratic Elites Joe Biden wasnt a factor in the Democratic primary before South Carolina, and Kamala Harris wasnt a factor at all. Biden either outright rejected popular policies(marijuana legalization, Medicare for All) or was quiet about his support for them($15 min. wage). Barack Obama cant win you the general with a few phone calls. -The Right is Toxic Theyre perfectly happy to undermine or destroy democratic institutions to get their way, to an extremely dangerous extent. Moreover, the Dem leadership mostly continues as though everything is normal. <cite>ElatedVenusaur posted [p:946747272] in What does ...

berlyman101 11/05/20 12:19:27 AM #12:	I think people who voted for either want to feel like they're on the winning side. That and the overwhelming number of Trump supporters who sincerely believe the democrats are trying to destroy the country and send them to hell. --- http://www.lukesurl.com/comics/2010-02-24-determinism.png <cite>berlyman101 posted [p:946747362] in What does ...
