  • Swing voters don’t care about Democracy and when swing voters say they care about Democracy it doesn’t count because swing voters say things

    Fucking hilarious! That’s some serious weapons grade MAGA thinking right there!

    How is this hilarious? It’s literally just pointing out that there is a difference between saying you care about something, and looking at the data of what actually changes votes.

    Democracy has been under attack for decades. Swing voters did not care until it drove up gas prices.

    Do you not remember that Trump got re-elected after being impeached, enacting numerous anti-democratic policies, and generally trashing democratic norms in the campaign? Voters still voted for him because he said he would bring down gas prices.

    CNBC polling backed that up, they found that 9/10 voters cited the economy as their top concern, and one of the major differences between last election and this election was that last election a plurality trusted Republicans with the economy and this election a plurality trusted Democrats. What would actually answer the question is seeing what the top concern was amongst people who voted Republican last time and Democrat this time, or those who voted Republican last time but stayed home this time.


  • They should focus 100% on cost of living and nothing else.

    The only reason they won the election is because Trump fucked up the cost of living for the average American. That is literally the only that matters to people.

    Everything else is an optional side quest at best, and you’ll only have time to take on side quests if you keep the main quest going.
