It’s not like any candidate was actually good but they did pick the worst one.

    Biden won by nearly 7 million votes with a 62% of votes under 30 years old and 52% under 45 years old.

    Actually the only age group he didn’t win with was 65+ and they’re the ones dropping faster and faster each month.

    So you’re assuming people will take Trump over Biden because he was involved in genocide when he was involved in 8 years of drone strike champion before he ran in 2020.

      He won the popular vote by a smaller percentage of votes cast than Hillary and the Dem candidate winning the sub-45yo vote is pretty much a given. In most elections, it would be by much more.

      As for the 65+ group, a lot of fascists and people who don’t consider fascism more of a deal breaker than a (D) behind a name are aging into that group, perhaps as many as are dying off.

      And no, I’m not assuming anything. I’m pointing out that there’s a big risk of the pro-democracy candidate losing if he and the rest of the DNC don’t stop thinking that “Not Trump” is enough and start listening to what the public wants.

        I don’t know how to explain to you that you just agreed with me.

        You agree that young people vote dem

        You agree old people are dying off

        But you think Dems will be held accountable by voters by electing a worse candidate for them just to spite the Dems? .

        People will take the best option they are provided and 2020 had the highest voter turnout since 1900 for sleepy creepy Joe.

          You obviously have a lot more faith in the rationality of voters than I do, in spite of the whole gestures at entire world thing.

          In stead of pointing out details, I’m just gonna hope that your faith will be rewarded in a little under 11 months and wish you a nice day.

              No. I was about to refute their misconceptions point by point but decided it wasn’t worth the effort since we’re ostensibly on the same side and nothing I or anyone else can say would convince them.

              Same with you, it seems, so unless you actually have something to add, I suggest you take your conclusion jumping elsewhere.

                Please do try. I’d like to see you show how hilariously out of your element you are trying to prove something to a bunch of randos on the internet :)

                Classic conservative playbook… as soon as somebody proves you wrong or even just argues well against your points, you make a short comment indicating that the time for discussion has passed and that you’ve already won.

                It’s a well documented strategy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmVkJvieaOA&t=0

                Enjoy your astroturfing

                  Says the one who calls me a

                  conservative

                  Dude, can’t you read? I clearly said that Biden’s the lesser evil by far and that the Trump presidency was a catastrophe.

                  I’m not calling Biden an evil because I think he’s too far left. I’m calling him an evil because he’s way too far right and way too authoritarian. Dude loves cops and the fascist apartheid state Israel, just like Trump does.

                    I still think you’re a conservative, just the kind that wears a Mao t-shirt instead of a Reagan one…
