It is but but we had two choices. Low and nonexistent
There are always other choices. Sadly we seem to swarm to the lousiest choices.

It is but but we had two choices. Low and nonexistent
You seem to forget there are basically just the two cults to choose from. Yes there are other parties but they are so fringe they are almost nonexistent.There are always other choices. Sadly we seem to swarm to the lousiest choices.

Yes there are other parties but they are so fringe they are almost nonexistent.
So given that information and the fact that at the time of the final election we had two choices and fringe that were never going to get the presidency exactly what other choices did you see that I did not?
and yet “pursed lipped, judgmental, moralizing prudes” is exactly what you sound like most of the time
So I stumbled on to these two pieces today:
‘Devastating Political Consequences’: One Error That This Senior Dem Thinks Cost His Party Big
Gavin Newsom Jump-Started a Conversation Democrats Need to Have
Both of them infer that THE BIG problem is the Dems' overemphasis on transgender rights alone. They focus in on that one (1) issue. Yes, this is an important issue and a spectacularly dumb political tactic, but the transgender stuff was only the icing on the cake. The bathrooms, the flamboyant transgender folks reading to young children in class. BUT...
... that was just on top of everything else that created such animosity towards the Left -- the whole PC/Identity Politics thing. The screaming of RACIST and HOMOPHOBE and ISLAMOPHOBE at everything that moved. The deplatforming of conservative speakers on campus. The safe spaces and trigger warnings. The punishment of employees who "offended" the wrong person. The destruction of family businesses because they didn't want to bake a fucking cake. The refusal to allow the American flag on clothing because it "offended" somebody. The "toxic masculinity" and "cultural appropriation" crap. The participation ribbons. On and on and on and on.
Yes, transgender was the straw that broke the camel's back. But it was the FINAL straw, not the ONLY straw. I hope the Dems haven't lost sight of that.
Certainly true. Our political class is nothing but immoral unethical and criminal. How Americans think they will improve anything is beyond me.Which as a statement on the state of the country I will note is setting the bar incredibly low.

Which vaccine and who cares what you cry about anyway…I wasn't the one crying about the vaccine as just ONE example.
With most democrats it is a case of the blind leading the blind. There are only a few who aren't actually blind.So I stumbled on to these two pieces today:

"But there are too many serious candidates for the GOP nomination"Only the Republican Party can defeat the Republican Party in 2028. There are zero serious contenders from the Democrats for the presidential nomination.
But there are too many serious candidates for the GOP nomination, and that will give the Democrats a chance to campaign the way they campaign best: ignore their own ridiculous candidate and attack the GOP nomination using the words of his or her primary opponents.
But, the Democrats will have wokeness and tax and spend-ness hanging around their necks. They will try to fake being socially conservative, fiscally responsible middle of the roaders, but it won't work, because they have to have an actual candidate.
That laugh sounds remarkably like the laugh you laughed at Trump when he announced he was running in 2016."But there are too many serious candidates for the GOP nomination"
Vance?
Don Jr?
And you are serious?
Hah Hah Ha!
Kash fucking Patel for President?That laugh sounds remarkably like the laugh you laughed at Trump when he announced he was running in 2016.
Vance or Don Junior would be great, but they are not the only ones. I don't guess you've heard of Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, or Kristi Noem?
Oh, yeah. They are a brown man and two women, so the Democrats will never consider them capable.
The exact kind of cleverness that lost you the last election.Kash fucking Patel for President?
Can he kiss his OWN butt?
So you basic all are just typing to type or you do not understand how elections work. Either way I think you have exhausted anything usefulThat's never true but there are choices one can make during the primaries.
They are "fringe" because the two parties have so successfully brainwashed the people into believing they are the only viable choices.
Other countries do not act in this manner.
Here in WV the legislature just banned ranked choice. Now no one, and I mean no one is even discussing that here BUT the politicians decided now was the time to get ahead of any possible talk and to preserve the status quo.
