Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.
In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.
Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.
Well buddy, you’re in a two party system. You going to just give a literial fascist a chance because Biden wasn’t able to wrangle the crazies on the other side to agree all the time?
that’s cutting of your nose to spite your face in the worst way.
Nope. I’m just not going to prop up a candidate in the general election who was voted on in the primaries specifically to fuck over progressives and leftists. The people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries can go fuck themselves.
Yes but the part of this you keep dodging is that any Republican is worse. They have all the negatives of Biden plus a bunch of additional terrible stuff. You may not like the system, none of us here fucking do, but it’s either Biden or someone worse. When gay marriage and divorce are illegal, and bibles are the only book allowed in school, try to remind yourself how Biden would have been just as bad. Both sides are not the same, they’re both bad sure, but one is so much worse than the other, it’s ludicrous that people can’t wrap their minds around this.
Then the people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries should have made a better decision. They can go fuck themselves.
So do you see this as punishment for liberals? Because it will not punish the people you want it to.
Nope. I just see this as people voting selfishly in the 2020 primaries learning that they need to consider the goals of other groups of voters they depend on in the general election.
I’m ready to work together when they are.
Didn’t you get the memo as a leftist that working together with centrists literally always means abandoning your core values and getting spit in the face by centrists dems who would rather jump on a hand grenade to prove to centrist republicans that they have nothing in common with you rather than engage with your policies? (or even rhetorically defend their legitimacy?)
It was, is and always will be your fault Dems lose. The two party system means that if you conceptualize your vote as a choice you are selfish. You owe your vote to the shitty corporate democrat, that is how it works :)
Look I am sorry if the way centrists try to bully you into a vote comes off as condescending but honestly you have to feel for them, think how hard it is for them to always be twisting their values around so they match the status quo.
Another “centrist” claiming “bOtH sIdEs”
I’m not a centrist. I’m a leftist.
Sure budsure bud, but againt the angry cheeto you didn’t have an optuom to defeat him. I would love to see Bernie, but the reality is other.
The reality is the people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries did so specifically to fuck over progressive and leftist efforts. Go ahead and ask them. They are openly fighting us.
Lol, like a vote for trump was a vote for progress. Sure bud.
Seems legit.
