    I'm not saying Bernie would've won outright but something is clearly changing and not working for people to look at the state of things and think yeah this is fine. More of this please. Democrats couldn't get the senate so we wait and hope enough people care come 2022 to vote Democrat to flip seats in the senate to actually get things done and keep a bandaid over the hemorrhaging until then?

    30 days to be safe. There are ways to cut it down faster, but 30 days in the system. Longer in the hair, most don't bother with that tho.

    Edit: It would also help to have more compelling candidates run for office because I hate to admit it at this point but lots of voters prefer a guy they can have a beer with than a sane, competent leader.
    Well yeah that's kind of what I mean, defaulting to "these ignorant hick retards are so racist" or "fuck these cubans" is not great messaging/outreach.

    BTW, for those states that just got legal weed... don't expect to find a store for a while. Here in MI it took a good year before stores started showing up.

    I have, as I also live in a very red part of NY (Declared Independent voter). It's almost always based on the fact that Trump is a "Good businessman, not a politician" BS line. Lets say he is -- he doesn't even benefit small time businesses at all. Meanwhile, people like Jeff Bezos comes up another 1 trillion off of his policies and the swamp gets murkier. I'm all about having some uplifting policies, but Trump doesn't even give a fuck about his own base, lol. I've come to terms that there are two types of voters. Those who will vote Red regardless just because, and people who adore Trump. Trump cares about neither, lol.

    Then we can always double back and just question how all of his constituents just casually ignore the fact that he's a racist, sexist, trans-hating, bigot. That's even worse than being the man tbh. Even more so if they themselves aren't biased like that.

    2008 and 2020 are worlds apart my dude. It would help us all if a new Obama comes out of the woodworks in 2024 but don't sit here and pretend that the political environment in 2008 was anything close to what it is now.

    I don't think Bernie would have won this election, but I sure wish he would have.

    Biden winning and the Senate/House getting stronger for the Republicans seems bad for everyone. Literally nothing is going to get accomplished.

    Edit: In other news, Mert has reached the point of quoting himself. This thread is over 9000

    so after trump fights this in the courts and loses, after biden gets nothing done for four years because of a republican senate, how much does Trump win by in 2024 when he runs again

    (provided biden actually holds)

    Would be worse if trump won. However it’s looking like Biden is going to pull ahead in the end
