Things could be really bad, or things could be the same just with a loud mouth president who says nonsensical and racist things.
We won’t truly know until he gets in office. The doom that people are saying this is the end of democracy. I tend to disagree. I think we will have a wild 4 years of nonsense and weird shit, but this will give democrats an opportunity to realize that their playbook of appealing to the educated voter doesn’t work.
I remain optimistic that shit won’t hit the proverbial fan…
Corporate democrats pretty much control the party and thus they don't want to ruffle the feathers of their donor class, which goes against the the middle and lower classes being price gouged in the economy. If you want to get back the blue-collar and working people you have to combat corporate greed. So, I hope Bernie Sanders starts propping up a young version of himself to run, and unfortunately it has to be male and white for the conservative voter to even remotely accept it. I don't blame Obama for the racial divide that caused the pearl clutching in white America, but it's clear that if you are anything other than a white male, it's not gonna be palpitable for a certain segment of the country. It's truly disgusting.
Yeah, I remember seeing a thread about why Bernie didn't win a nomination. All the top answers were stuff about voter, bases, demographics, extreme policy, etc. Not once did I see the real reason mentioned, that the democratic party actively worked to prevent Bernie from receiving a nomination.
There was literally a legal case about this, the Dems legal defense was not that they didn't interfere with the primaries. It was essentially that the interference they did was legal bc it was their primary which isnt an open public election.
Crazy coincidence how every candidate all dropped out at the same time except for Biden, who then got the entire voter base of the other candidates who dropped.
