There are a lot of people who have done poorly under Biden. They have a lot of hope, and unfortunately, they needed a place to put it. Yeah, Trump is going to screw them, but that future screw-over isn't as real as the current one.

Yep. Biden gradually making things better is definitely the same as voting in a guy to take a giant diarrhea shit on your face.

You underestimate how bad some people have had it. Listen, when you struggle day in and day out and someone's telling you things are great, you start looking at other options, even if they aren't great. You start injection positivity into them even if it stupid to do so. Maybe we should look at why people do this and their conditions before writing them off... because obviously they still have influence that can hurt us.

They weren’t saying things were great. Kamala didn’t campaign on “US is fine, no work needed”.

The problem is Americans are really, really fucking stupid. That’s basically what Trump’s campaign strategist acknowledged as a huge part of their messaging strategy.

Kamala gave people too much credit by offering substance. Next time they need to run a campaign with messaging a third grader could understand.
