    Could have expanded SCOTUS, could have had an actual primary, could have run Harris’s campaign as a populist option for change rather than Biden 2.0… Like, even just looking at the campaign, they had a wave of momentum and squandered it.

    People are scared and beaten down; they know things are broken, and they’re looking for leaders who will shake things up. Unfortunately, most people are apparently too dumb to realize that simply voting for the “candidate of change,” that Trump represented, doesn’t mean it will be the kind of change they would probably want. Would that voters could have had two candidates of change to choose from, but alas.

    And here we are, as Democrats are largely silent and a dyed-in-the-wool fascist takes over. They will continue to sit in their ivory towers, wring their hands, and learn all the wrong lessons from this utterly embarrassing loss to a fraud and a felon.

      The first post-headline sentence of that article is absolutely true, just not in the way it was intended:

      “Centrist” Democrats ARE revolting. Absolutely disgusting.
