      Nah I think there was a pretty sizeable section wanting biden to lose. My hunch it is cus he represents the DNC consolidation that killed any chance at Bernie.

      Edit: Not saying you specifically by any means. Just that they existed.

        I think it's important that the DNC doesn't walk away learning that they can run as G.W. Bush and win the Dem/ "Progressive" vote. But I'm torn on who I want to win per se

          You didn't ask, but I don't really want anyone to "win". I think we're fucked either way. I do think Biden buys the left the bare minimum amount of extra time to try and continue to grow and organize before whatever competent fascist wins in somewhere between 2024-2032 and kicks off real conflict.

          I don't think given the current situation they'll run away with that lession. If things were close and Trump never got covid after a shitty debate performance alongside other bad October surprises, we absolutely would've seen the above analysis and I was deeply concerned about this back in like April.

          This said, the only analysis of this election going forward now will be that it was a referendum on Trump that reached the point of no return because Trump himself got covid in October when people already started voting.

        I'm pretty sure most people here want both of them to lose so bad they just decided to vote third party.
