It appears Trump is going to be the next president of US. I'm not sure such a thread is needed in the first place, but here goes.

Feeling anxious? Desperate? Got the expected result?

What do you think went wrong? What do you think went right? What do you think the future holds?

Hmm don't remember people saying that so I'll defer to you there. I do recall Biden saying he was a 1 time candidate but I thought it was because he was Old.

Hopefully you'll remember this election. The dynamics were very similar.

People like myself were pissed and had to deal with peoples lesser evil nonsense. When biden won the primary due to warren/bernie split ticket. We were very explicit about it (all during the tail end of the primary) which is what led biden to that statement.

Biden was forced out due to two factors: No left wing support (dont break strikes, commit genocide's joe). And no corporate support. (Because of the wonder kid khan)

Harris then tried to cater to the corporate douches and genocide joes. You all found out as a result what we've been telling you you.

I hope we all get to see true progressive candidate those people can vote for. I'm scared we won't get the chance.

Focus locally, find them, promote them, protect them. Ping me if you need help doing this.
