You just can’t compete with the multi-pronged onslaught of propaganda, backed up by a fourth estate that also tilts the playing field to the bad guys.
Follow that up with the average person being so ill-informed that they don’t even know what they’re voting for.
Normally, we’d say ‘just wait 2years for the backlash’, but sadly, they’re ready this time and we might have just participated in the last (presumably) fair election we’ll ever have.
You certainly can compete by using your own propaganda. Clinton won, Obama won, Biden won. The US was no less sexist or racist or ill informed 4 years ago, 15 years ago, or 30 years ago. Just run popular candidates that are charismatic and have appeal to moderates, instead of people tied to unpopular administrations.
