You're already in Heck!

Yep, totally agree. Sad to see so many on here knee jerk being angry at you instead of engaging in constructive outreach to an obviously attentive and likely persuadable voter.

I 100% agree with your critiques, but I don't see how Trump was going to solve them. However, I'm pretty disappointed that you're at -20 at the time I'm making this comment (thanks blue maga groupthink), so I'm upvoting you to try and turn the tide. But all standards, you have a well written comment that should not be downvoted into oblivion.

Right as you get comfortable in bed, you can't remember whether you left something out of the fridge or started the dishwasher.

I'd like to believe you, but 65% red is a pretty high number. https://responsiblestatecraft.org/veterans-vote-trump/

That's in the face of nearly every military leader that had contact with Trump saying he was unfit, Trump having that weird campaign event at a cemetery, etc.

Is it really a political hand grenade? Seems like majority of vets vote red no matter what.

I'm on a 5800x3d, pretty set right now, but that's a good point...

If you don't do anything but glue yourself to CNN, then yes, you wouldn't have heard about any complaints.

How about many articles in The Nation - here's one quoting Ezra Klein calling for a contested convention. https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/biden-convention-ezra-klein/

How about a Newsweek article talking about how even MTG is laughing at the democratic party: https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-do-democrats-plan-cancel-presidential-primary-debates-1796585

How about a really pissed off Dean Phillips in Politico re Florida canceling the primary? https://www.politico.com/news/2023/11/30/florida-democrats-dean-phillips-election-00129403

Breaking Points has also done many shows on Dem party failures in the primaries. Here's an interview with Marianne Williamson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AfS7xnz_M4

If you don't believe that there will be death squads (I'm not trying to convince you there will be), you are not the target of my question. Many people around Lemmy today are saying things like "you've just killed all trans people" or "I'm going to be hunted for sport now," very much believing that they are part of an "isolated minority sect or fantasy guild or some wack shit like that." These people do believe that there will be death squads.

Many many many people were saying that the entire time. It has been clear to anyone not drinking the Biden kool aid that he hasn't been as lucid as he used to be, and many people said that if we had debates and Joe Biden won, at least we would have given others a voice. Anyone who supported Marianne Williamson, Dean Phillips, etc. especially was infuriated there were no debates, just a coronation. Many people were mad that certain states even canceled the democratic primaries. When Biden dropped out, it would have not been that strange for several prominent democrats to throw their hats in the ring - Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, etc. and at least have some sort of debate at the convention.
