    The Democrats have been less terrible than the GOP for decades now. They need to actually start offering solutions and helping people though. The Democrats need to actually earn votes, not just shame you for voting for Republicans

      Though I agree that would be ideal, it also takes more work than just saying “see those guys want to make your life worse, we might not do that openly, vote for us because there’s no other choice”

      Humans are lazy, and power hungry. Even Democrats.

        The Democrats know who they need to vote for them, and those people have made it clear what they want. There are no “moderate” Republicans that are gonna vote Biden, so he needs to actually listen to the people who will vote for him and give them what they want. And they want it now because they aren’t gonna fall for the the Democrat bait and switch anymore.

        People can get as mad as they want about people using their vote to get what they want, but that’s literally hiw the system is designed to work.

          Why? It’s more work. And who are you gonna vote for anyways? Someone else that will end up with Drumpf again?

          Like I said, humans are lazy and power hungry.
