      Democrats have been moving further left ever since progressives joined them. This “democrats aren’t left enough” talking point is in line with the Russian strategy to polarize American politics more so that we dont get anything done.

              Again you’re not making sense. Why would I tell you that you want that?

              What I can tell you is that you want the non facsist political party to win and then you want your government officials to get along long enough to actually accomplish something.

              This requires voters, which requires compromise. According to the polls:

              The Harris campaign was always running uphill. She served as vice president to a president whose approval rating plunged in the middle of his first year in office and never recovered. The public’s judgment of his performance on two core issues—inflation and immigration—was harshly negative, and Harris inherited this disapproval when Joe Biden abandoned his quest for a second term.

                Wait I thought that disappointment was just Russian disinformation? /s

                So they looked at what’s unpopular and stayed with it. What an amazing strategy the dnc did

                  I don’t know what you’re trying to say with this. Pushing democrats further left and republicans further right and convincing both groups to not compromise is the Russian strategy and your statements are in line with that whether you have the same intentions or not.

                  So they looked at what’s unpopular and stayed with it. What an amazing strategy the dnc did

                  No, they were voted into office after a period of high spending from the pandemic and low revenue from tax cuts for the rich. Along with the supply chain problems from the pandemic this caused inflation.

                  This means that interest rates had to be increased by the federal reserve to reduce the amount of borrowing and reduce inflation which is only controlled by the federal reserve and not any political party.

                  From the perspective of the average citizen prices were high and most didn’t know why. Republicans propaganda blamed democrats and the average citizen that didn’t understand why believed it and voted accordingly.

                  Now you are continuing that republican propaganda by blaming the DNC.

                  The DNC also compromised on immigration because voters from both parties felt strongly about it and that is the job of a politician to do what the voters want.

                    Yes I’m blaming them for being shit not propaganda. How is it so hard for you to understand that?

                    Even your wall of text is ignoring the issues like the dems have for years.
