    I mean yes and no. Trump is a demon, but he’s lucid. When you consider how far right the American electorate is substance may matter less than delivery. Betting on the fundamental decency of the average American is probably a losing bet lol

    But maybe you’re right and I should be giving people more credit. Either way we lose, hence the title of the post.

        The real question would be what the material difference is between a geriatric whose kneejeek responses are to do whatever the NatSec and neoliberal ghouls want, or the one that fights with them occasionally in the dumbest way possible.

        IMO, very little policy-wise.

        Trump was good for recruiting though. Libs absolutely went to sleep under Biden despite promises to “push him left” and there being almost no policy differences between them outside of Biden running a more effective imperialist state and cutting COVID benefits.
