Two months of courting Republicans did basically nothing for Harris's polling. That they think Mike Pence or Liz Cheney are influential Republicans kind of makes their hypothesis that there are secret defectors that don't get counted in polls extra suspect.
It's fun watching the people who screamed that they weren't going to vote for any Dem scream louder when the Dems try to pick up votes from people who were going to vote for Trump.
They aren't going to pick up any votes from people who were going to vote for Trump... If they didn't get it by now, they aren't magically going to get it this week... Meanwhile she's alienating millions of young/progressive people who she could have gotten to vote for her by... (Checks notes) Not supporting genocide
Those millions of people didn't vote in 2010 and let the GOP take the House. Those millions of people didn't vote in 2016 and got us Trump. Those millions of people keep punching themselves in the face expecting the Right to get a nose bleed.
Man, they sound like a large and important voting bloc since their low turnout causes such critical losses. And then Democrats won in 2020 when their turnout was high. Seems like encouraging their turnout would be a good idea. Because surely a Serious Moderate like yourself would want to address reoccurring problems rather punch yourself in the face out of immature spite.
Bernie Sanders came out for Harris.
What else should they do?
And Liz Cheney and a bunch of other Republicans came out for Harris, but they're still courting Never Trump votes and you don't question that in the slightest. Endorsements don't determine votes.
Those millions of people weren't eligible to vote in 2010, a lot weren't in 2016 too... The new generations are just coming into the height of their voting power, but instead of asking them what they want in their elected officials, the idiot libs keep asking the Republicans instead
So, your plan for the next generation is for them to sit on their hands and do nothing because reasons...
When in history has not doing anything and letting the right do whatever they wanted been the best plan?
You're putting words in my mouth... They are doing plenty of things. Young people are just idealistic, and see themselves as having plenty of time to correct mistakes
Or they're waiting for the old people to die first before attempting so it's easier to make sweeping changes.
I hope they start making moves soon... Younger generation voters are the majority now... No need to wait until every last boomer dies
Democrats keep fucking it all up. You don't go after republicans. You go after your own god damn base for the first time in modern history. The left isn't voting because nobody represents them.
Represent them, they'll vote, and then you'll win, because those are your people sitting elections out constantly.
Arnold just endorsed her FFS. Just give it up, you were wrong. Trump's a con man and a loser. Don't be a loser.
