Amazed how fast it ends... This administration

Yes, it's plausible. You just need to look at other data to provide context
Example: People will tend to vote for their rep regardless of other factors.
Where these voters canvased about their votes? Etc...

...Understand the nuisances between the headlines and the actual facts on the ground.
People working 15 hour days, with kids, perhaps without a partner often don't have the time, energy or education to understand more lofty ideas like democracy

Compromise is *not* weakness. This idea has taken hold in the zeitgeist in the Trump era. It's neither normal nor healthy for a democratic society

The problem is people don't like to be told they're wrong.
Policy discussion without judgement, pointing fingers and calling ( I give you replies here) are needed to move the "low-information" voters away from MAGA
Most people aren't and won't be bothered to understand.

I want to move past MAGA. You're just helping them stay there.
That's why the Democrats are moving to the middle without regard to appeasing far left politics toxic to the general electorate.

We can discuss the specifics per policy.
Insults and threats of violence won't get you anywhere. That's why these notions and the people behind them will be left behind... just like MAGA

Yes, thanks for demonstrating many on the far left don't want a discussion.
It's their way...or they plug their ears ( block)
Hint: You can use the mute button without announcing it. 🤡

Thanks for giving evidence to further my statement. 🤡

Right. But proffering unpopular policies while "eat your own" just doesn't work.
Thinking one's viewpoint is absolute and resistant to debate or discussion is a long-term losing proposition.

Um, but you responded.
A fine example of far left logic, thanks.
Indistinguishable from #MAGA logic.

For the far left, yes. They continue to hurt their own causes.
Their policy efforts damage Damage and prevent electing moderates and nearly ensuring a #MAGA victory.
Here's a clue: you can't make changes in society if you don't win elections and because your policies, generally, are unpopular.

So this thread is dumping on a published list, because some have different opinions than the general group? Interesting...

Yes, don't marinate. Embrace and refocus. But don't ignore progress.
One needs only to look at the losing issues to see if one doesn't win, one cannot make policy.
No "left". I see your mistake
