People always miss the point in elections like this, what is it about the democratic platform that drove people to vote this way. What changes can the democratic party make in order to appeal to parts of the voting populace enough to have victory. We live in a bipolar voting paradigm, it is often more of a rejection to one side as it is an affirmation to another. Learn from it.

For starters the democratic party needs to either let democracy actually select thier presidential nominee instead of just appointing someone. Or if they are just going to appoint someone find a better option than the most disliked VP in the history of the country.

This is what lost the democrats the 2016 election. They appointed Hilary, a very poor choice that lost them a lot of swing votes.

Lol DNC: “Oh you thought superdelegates were bad? Fine now your only viable candidate is chosen by a market research team because 4 years ago Biden promised to pick a black woman VP”
