I wish I could believe that.

I mean, don't get me wrong - it would've been a better route to take in any case, whether it delivered the campaign from defeat or not.

But I have no faith in my fellow Americans to choose politicians or policies that represent their best interests.

Riddle me this

How does Kamala and Biden policies represent(ed) the best interest of the half of the population that they and their voters keep calling to be murdered and put in camps for being the privileged, bigoted, homophobic, sexist, racist, slave owners, Nazis, transphobic, emotionless, non empathic, oppressive source of all evil in the world?

Literally any negative adjective you can think of, any negative association, any way to dismiss, disparage or erode away any respect or appreciation they might have has been used and constantly and consistently applied to this half of the voters through the years, demonizing them to make them the imaginary enemies the Dems needed to rally against during their mandate and then again on the election cycles.

People who, might I remind you, have literally never had a (insert negative adjective here ) thought in their life, none of these supposed privileges, and are playing in a categorically non leveled field during their whole life.

Now the Dems are spending millions doing meetings in luxury hotels to see how they can analyze social media usage of patterns and speech to "connect" with that half of the population

Basically the same as they tried at the end of their campaign

You have no faith in America?

For these half of the population, that's basically all you need to win them

You want to know who benefits from the Dems policies? Look at the majority on power in their structures, who runs their committees, who is the main beneficiary of the DEI programs and the majority of the complainers:

Middle age white women with a god complex.

The Karentocracy is and has been eating the democrats away and you guys know it and are doing squat to avoid it

Now tell me this is not the case and has absolutely not been happening and keep blaming Kamala's defeat and betrayal on the Americans and how racist and sexist they are
