He didn't "handily win" he won by 1-2 points in the swing states.
It tracks with an anti-incumbent sentiment, people are not happy with inflation so they voted against the incumbent, they're still not happy and still voting against the incumbent.
And he only won because a few million people who voted in 2020 sat on their asses instead of voting this time.
It seems like supporting a genocide depresses turnout. Democratic consultants, take note.
Democrat politicians have already decided "DEI" was the problem. Good luck getting those spineless cowards something resembling a moral framwork.
Uh, are you confusing Republicans, the ones currently in power, with Democrats or something?
No, largely the "centrist" democrats that are doing this as a response to republicans embracing post truth death cultism. The progressive wing is mostly pushing back but I've seen at least two sniveling dems say some absolutely vile, trumpist shit.
no they are pointing out the Dems are doing literally anything to shift the blame from the party. I have seen so fucking many people argue that the dems should just drop all the trans issues and let the republicans win on it. Others blaming leftists for pointing out the problems with Harris.
