    Yep, Dems win by increasing turnout, Republicans win by depressing it.

    So Dems campaigning on how great they are wins elections

    Dems campaigning on how bad Republicans are only wins sometimes and usually only if the incumbent is a Republican.

    Unless we make changes we’re gonna switch to rotating every 4 instead of 8, and the moderate Dems allowed to make it to the general will never fix stuff as fast as Republicans can break it.

    The current plan just isn’t working.

        People said that about this election and Kamala still conceded in less than 24 hours…

        If we keep running these half assed opponents to fascism, there’s more of a chance they try to steal it. Because they know moderates don’t have the fight in them.

        They just aren’t worried about republican presidencies.
