and governed as a centrist-technocrat

This is what got him elected and re-elected. Appealing to centrists

Because it is in their best interest to vote for them to prevent Trump from getting elected. Nobody votes for leftists. That’s why they never win elections.

Those are liberal policies not leftist. Saying Obama was a leftist is revisionist nonsense.

Not enough leftists voted for Harris.

A lot of republicans are going to vote “not Trump” because of the damage Trump is doing now. Those votes will be easier to earn than progressive votes.

When leftists don’t show up to vote, the government shifts right.

Thanks for taking the time to politely remind these lemmy users they are in an echo chamber.

I agree that running a female candidate will lose votes. It wont lose my vote, but it will lose enough votes to potentially lose the election.

Trump has already been impeached multiple times. One more isn’t going to change your reaction.

But would the majority of American voters vote for her?

Because if not then it doesn’t matter how great she would be.
