    You think voters care? I’m not so sure, haven’t heard it brought up in a political context until now. Can you imagine TikTok coming up in the debates?

      Are there single-issue tiktok voters? Probably not. But democrats doing a thing that we all agreed was dumb under Trump does contribute to the sense that the democrats do not represent them, which decreases voter turnout.

      Similar to Biden escalating the trade war against China; there’s probably not “buy a chinese EV” single-issue voters, but making EVs unaffordable to the vast majority of Americans decreases voter turnout among people who didn’t want a trade war with China.

      Every time the democrats try to out-flank the republicans from the right, they’re effectively campaigning for the republicans.
