Listen, pal, if I had this much power over the electorate, we'd have universal healthcare. I appreciate how highly you seem to think of me, though. I think it's much, much more likely that the democrats fucked this up completely on their own than some random people on Lemmy and Mastodon derailing their entire campaign. Though, if all it took to cause the democrats to lose was for a few people on Lemmy and Mastodon to point out that their policy plank sucked, it sounds like they ran a really terrible campaign.
