I think the four years without Trump was great. Had Trump not won a second term, justice would have continued to be served to Trump and his conspirators. That’s mostly all gone now.
I get that Biden was not a lot of voters’ favorite choice, but I take issue with the way you infer that things would be just as bad had either won. I don’t think I need to cite any sources to say Trump’s administrations have done great harm to the people living in the US as well as those around the world.
I also take issue with saying “vote blue” voters would elect a “Democrat Trump.” What even would that be? I think that’s leaning into the “both sides bad” type of argument that attempts to paint spineless DNC ghouls just as bad as terrible RNC monsters.
You make a note of pandering to hot-button issues, but you don’t pay heed to the multi-decade effort of conservative think tanks creating and weaponizing wedge issues. That’s literally a political strategy that the RNC has used to great success.
People cite the ratchet effect as a reason for why things keep shifting to the right. I counter by saying with no anchor on left, the whole window drifts to the right. By abandoning DNC candidates during a presidential election you are purposefully pulling up your anchor to let it all drift away.
