But what does that mean when you're up against a party entirely comfortable with outright lying, who are willing to peddle the most extreme, absurd propaganda to a nation of dunces that actually eat it up?
Does that mean Democrats should become what we hate and just start lying and peddling the craziest propaganda possible like the Republicans?
I don't see the Dem's campaign as being the issue. The issues are that Americans are dumb as fuck and that we have ALWAYS held Democrats to higher standards. So even if they run a cleaner campaign and have a voting history proving they are better for the middle/lower classes, we still DEMAND more of them, or else we're going to just go with our abusers instead.
Americans are fucking dumb. That's not really the Dem's fault. Especially since they support our public education system WAY more than Republicans do, who want to privatize it.
