I agree. This is only to say the country is big and we don’t get to decide every aspect of what people care about in a candidate. He did so much I am grateful for but the media didn’t just create those problems for him. They weren’t invented problems. They had a real impact for a year and more.
Which was a disaster. Don’t minimize it. A disaster that confirmed many voters worst fears. Again, I agree with your stance on who you were voting for no matter what, but only about 35% of the country on either side votes that way.
The other 15-20% have to be persuaded. That doesn’t make their rationale right or righteous but in a democracy you must persuade. That 35% voting for Trump no matter what are also part of the problem but you aren’t going to convince them.
So focus on the people you can reach who have aligned priorities but some of them are still different. That doesn’t make reaching them impossible or unimportant.
It’s not about perfection here. Our leaders are going to make mistakes but many of these problems are systemic because they’ve deteriorated over time. That also means individual candidates pay a price for the bigger problems, even those they didn’t make worse. Trump lost in 2020 for similar reasons.
If you turned up the volume it wasn't bad. That should have been fixed in the production room. He mixed up some names. Allies like you made it a disaster. People like you stoked the fears even after every performance that you waited for him to fail, he succeeded.
