    I’ll never understand why people refuse to blame the powerful rich people running the Democrats for not drawing people in with good leftist policy.

      Because leftist policy doesn’t bring anyone to the polls other than the right. Only 30% of eligible voters bothered to show up to polls and vote for a black/Indian woman over a Hitler wannabe. That means that a full 70% of eligible voters said they were fine with, or were actively choosing, a child raping felon, who outright said he wanted to execute anyone who ever opposed him and praised Hitler’s generals.
      You can god damn well bet that the people running the Democratic party learned a lesson, and that lesson is that so called liberals will always come up with an excuse not to vote no matter how dire the situation, but conservatives will show up even for made up shit that has been repeatedly proven to be wrong.
      And if you thought the Dems were conservative before… well just wait and see how much farther right they are going to go now chasing the only votes that bother to show up to vote.
