Can you believe libs are still doing the "guess we need to ditch the left" shit lmao
Libs will throw the left to the fascists for 5 more minutes of feeling morally superior
i make allowances for the american voter being an incoherent creature, like somebody will take to a pro-Cheney line, right? but goddamn LESS than Biden?
the incompetence is surreal.that 5% must be democrats that live in red areas who register to vote in republican primaries, the republican-to-democrat swing voter literally does not exist
Eh, I have a relative who registered republican years back and came around to being left leaning liberal (still liberal mind you)
They do vote in conservative primaries, usually for some bottom of the ballot weirdo
You mean embracing the faction of the right Trump coasted to a win by bashing didn't bring Trump down?
Seriously all the dems did was increase their loser energy exponentially
Now I want to see the inverse of the chart. All these demographic charts about "women voted this way" or "men voted this way" mean nothing if simply "more republicans came out to vote the democrats". Then it's not "Women turned to the right" it's "Liberal women are disillusioned with Democrats".
What I saw was that Trump got 2 million fewer votes than he did in 2020 but Harris got 15 million fewer than Biden got in 2020.
Thinking about this more and wouldn't be surprised if Liz and the other neocons were a red herring to get Dems to expend their energy chasing after what was ultimately a poison pill
Picturing the average voter monologue as something like "you're telling me I'd be able to vote against neocons AND libs by voting for trump? Say no more fam"
It seriously just fucking boggles my mind and I desperately want to know what data they had which told them this was a good idea.
I recognize this is entirely anecdotal but: basically multiple generations of my entire family for like the first 24 years of my life were die hard suburban Republicans. Lifetime members of the NRA, Absolute Reagan worshippers, and they all even voted twice for fucking Bush. They all love Liz Cheney to varying extents but guess what: every single one of them voted twice for Obama and rebranded as staunch resistance Libs in 2016. They haven't voted republican in over a decade!
She was run out of the republican party for a fucking reason. Again I genuinely want to see fucking numbers because I cannot understand who this would appeal to that wasn't already registered to vote as a democrat. Baffling.
I think that if you want to peer into the average Kamala campaign staffers' brain, all you needed to do was go on reddit. Just constant posting of goofy photos of Trump, trash talking all he did (ESPECIALLY the McDonalds' thing), posting exclusively of polls that are good for Kamala. Just a massive echo chamber.

Yeah, when I saw the news, and people here on Lemmy celebrating the Liz Cheney fawning, I was like, WTF?! How is that gonna work?!
Well, it didn't. lol
