Polls predicted a landslide, but the result was close and split because voters reject radical changes.

Love seeing Clinton and Blair’s former strategist be such a fucker

“Mr. Biden’s smaller margin of victory at the top of the ticket. House Democrats, despite a strong advantage on health care, owe their problems to associations with a range of unpopular issues from defunding the police to raising taxes, ending fracking and opening up borders.“

    FUCKING THIS! People on here like to assume Americans will just magically get that leftist ideals (hell social democrat ideals) are not just possible but doable. Despite a lifetime of propaganda and BS saying otherwise.

    It’s why I get so pissed at people on here who refuse to volunteer with the DSA or purity test BS. We need to use EVERY resource to our advantage to make progress. That includes helping these progressive and social dem groups that have moved in to fill the void left by the Dems when they switched to focussing on suburbia. Hell how much of this country thought universal healthcare was evil until Obama’s shit plan? How many thought raising minimum wage was a poor dream!
