Yea but they won’t court the “left”(what little of a left exists in America) because the DNC doesn’t want leftist or even center-left policies, they like and want center-right policies that republicans 30 years ago pushed.
Exactly. You’re taking the high horse, ethical, “I won’t sink to their level” strategy against people who literally have no ethics, scruples, morals, or shame. They are depending on you to fight fair. So they can punch you in the back of the head when you turn your back. People who present themselves as more intelligent, moral, and noble prove once again that they’re rubes and marks.
What the fuck is it going to take that you have to fight fire with fire with these lateral pieces of human shit?
Why did they even have to work so hard for your young left vote? You saw the alternative, and you knew the consequences to staying home. You will suffer it not their party. I thought you guys were the smart ones and would know to take the lesser of two evils, instead of standing to the side to let the worst one in. And again you will suffer, no matter how much you say “that’s what Democrats get I hope they learn”, while you burn.
Anyways I just don’t get it guys. Sometimes in life you have to eat shit and like it. But instead you decided to cut off your nose to spite your face.

That’s intentional. A conscious decision made by the DNC.
I think centrism can win elections though. In my country, the UK, elections are usually won by whichever party captures the centre ground. Keir Starmer won in the UK this year by being centrist. Previously David Cameron and Tony Blair were pretty centrist, and both won multiple elections.
Centrism can win in places that aren’t America. Too many Republicans are being fed propaganda all day long by Fox “News”…an organization that has argued in court that no one should take them seriously. But that’s where they get their news. They’re also indoctrinated by their religious upbringing from Evangelicals. There is no such thing as a moderate Republican anymore. They have shown that they will vote every time for the Republican candidate regardless of how flawed they are. Trump is a convicted felon that tried to overthrow the government, has been found in a court to be a rapist, was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein, has had numerous failed businesses and bankruptcies, has denigrated our troops. NONE OF IT MATTERS. Stop trying to appeal to the right and actually get your voting base excited about the policies you want to push.
