    It’s entirely the Democratic Party’s fault if Trump wins another term. But their online cheerleaders are so keen to blame Communists who are such a miniscule percentage of the voting population. Are you going to start Muslim-bashing as well if they don’t turn out in huge numbers to vote for Joenicide?

    The sole “Trump will be worse” pitch and constant hostility is absolutely pathetic, and not an election winning strategy. Even your own party leadership knows it. The disconnect between the actual party and it’s online supporters is huge.

        The hivemind in this comment is strong. When you lose in Rock Paper Scissors, do you “blame” the other person?

        Whether or not you blame Trump’s supporters (who want the credit for a victory) or Communists (who want something new), you don’t gain anything.

      Chips act, green energy, union empowerment, student debt, marijuana reform, etc etc etc. Anyone that says Biden isn’t doing anything is wilfully ignorant.

        I’m waiting for the full student debt relief and pardons for everyone currently jailed for marijuana. It’s better than nothing, but not enough to change the slow decay. Third party or bust.

          There’s a thing called jurisdiction. They can’t give debt relief for everyone, just the ones with federal loans. They can’t pardon everyone for marijuana, just those with federal offences. Most marijuana offences are state charges. So guess what? If you want state charges to be pardoned, you better vote in state elections!

          Yeah you’re bust all right voting for third party. Even if your third party wins (lol) you’re going to find that little thing called jurisdiction.
