The frightening realisation to take away is that most people don’t have a visceral horror of fascism in the way that progressives on Mastodon do. Which makes sense: if fascism was regarded with widespread revulsion, the Trumps and Orbans and Netanyahus of this world would be as successful as someone running a dogshit sandwich stall at the local market.
Says the guy whose head has been in the sand while we talk about what a bad choice Biden is for a couple years now.
Pony up nutjob, who is your candidate who can win 270 Electoral College votes at a higher likelihood than the sitting President?
Now? You mean after the dems refused to allow a primary / primary debates and have been shouting from the rooftops that dementia grandpa is the only candidate who can beat Trump?
Correction. Genocide enabling dementia grandpa
Hmmm….
So no one? Cool, just checking.
I got a bowl of fresh popcorn here. Whoever the dems choose, they screwed themselves with their own choices.
Bernie would beat Trump by 20-30 points but the donor class would rather have Trump than that.
It’s not looking good.
It’s obvious Biden is going to lose unless he steps down.
Corporate dems would end up choosing someone like Hillary - who is the only person to ever lose against Trump lol….
I don’t have a lot of hope. The way it stands now, Trump is going to win. It just an obvious and blatant fact.
