Whenever I see people bring that up, there seems to be an assumption that Kamala definitely would have won if more people voted. Maybe that's true, but who's to say? I do agree that Dems need to increase turnout if they want to remain competitive, and I hope they do that by running a better campaign rather than banking on the idea that being "not Trump" will be enough to win. I'm not optimistic about that though.
Fair point. But I’ll add that conservatives show up to vote. It’s almost a given that trump got all he was going to get. Of the 90,000,000 people that chose not to- it’s safe to assume that many of them would have voted for Kamala had it not been for the single issue non-voters, or protest non-voters.
I agree with the rest of your point. And well said.
