Hey look, another person getting the turnout question completely fucking wrong.

  1. Relative to 2020, turnout was UP in swing states.

  2. Trump led irregular/independant/politically disinterested voters by double digits.

A 100% turnout would not only not have changed the result, but probably would have produced an even larger Trump victory.

And also avoiding the fact they were rolling support behind the literal walking corpse of the status quo while people were demanding the status quo change.

The Democrats have become the party of complicity (good cop) while the Republicans move the agenda to where the government/those in power want it to be (bad cop).

This is false equivalency in sheep's clothing

Then why is it there is always just 1 republican holding up the works whenever they want? Tommy Rubber I'll the great Traitor from Alafuckintbama held up how many promotions for the US military while the Party of Complicity sat on their hands and cliñutched pearls.

I am so absolutely tired of the Dems getting steamrolled by another party that holds nobody accountable and passes their policies with impunity....all while the Dems 'take the high road'.

Now, it's too late, and they will play the part of the injured lamb until all their progressive programs are gutted.

Throw your pop culture phrases in the toilet along with your social security, because that's gonna go too.
