I remeber the Centrist here speaking about how great Joe Manchin was talking how he was winner and all this stuff. He and his blond partner have doomed the Democratic party for years and the heck maybe even the country. Since people are supporting Team Covid over Dems.

I refuse to believe that anything that says Republicans are more popular than Democrats. Just not possible

I hate this fucking country

Doubt

It's why I have no hope. Too many idiots here.

1996?

The same year Clinton was reelected for another term?

Fortune magazine lmao

November is going to be an absolute blood bath

So many people voting against their interests.

lol. Im surprised but also not.

Before the election: Vote for us. We arent Trump and will do all these great things because we care about real people.
While in power: we cant do anything we said we would.
After the next election: I cant explain why people didnt vote for us

The GOP has it easy.

And Dems started shooting themselves in the foot with giving people 1400 and not 2000 dollars with the checks. Saying oh we meant that it would be 2000 dollars collectively. They should have stepped back and say wow we did not frame this well when were campaigning. Let just push for the 2K and make these people happy. But naw that gaslite the people put them in office.

This is more or less what I was afraid of from a Biden administration, yes.

Biden trying too hard to gain from moderates and centrists rather than really going to war and getting the left out to vote.

Even excluding all the other factors, the party in power nearly always loses seats at the midterms. I don't think anyone with realistic expectations is surprised at all.

Methodology says 70% mobile 30% landline, unfortunately. I wondered the same. Also 12,000 people which is a pretty huge sample size

Democrats need to start acting like Democrats again if they have any hope of getting more voters, stop acting like socialists.

This genre of "Trump supporters telling Dems how to act" is really stale

I have a better suggestion: act more like "socialists", since "socialist" policies enjoy broad support among American voters.

The Republicans have embraced movements in their party, the left haven't. They ignore the calls for universal Healthcare etc and wonder why a huge chunk of their party hates them. They are also cowards.

If there is only one point towards America's stupidity, it is this.

I mean, yeah, but it would be one thing if they had gotten a ton done and the president was reasonably popular. Instead, Biden hasnt accomplished much and is an additional drag on the Dems. Possibly in 2024 as well.

So people want the party that wants to end democracy?

I knew this nation would wisen the fuck up again.

The Dems were doing so good too

Lot of folks vote like they're betting on horse races.

Republicans play to win and are playing for keeps while the Democrats have been nothing but jobbers over the last year.

What the fuck does this even mean?

You think Republicans would stop being corrupt scum fucks or manchin and sinema wouldn't exist? You're living in fantasy land.

Perhaps this is the time when the Dems in power realize they will never again be effective by trying to take the "high road" with the GOP.

This time.

This attitude of yours is part of why your side are losing voters in droves. The democrats of today are nothing like the democrats of the 1990's and 2000's. The current party is just angry, vengeful, and in the case of the far left, bloodthirsty; there's no balance and very little sanity to be found.

The joke was that Bernie was a way worse option than keeping the regular ol' dems in power.

Here's how I think it goes down, having done 0 research on this

People want progressive reforms

Democrats get elected

Democrats don't do that and flounder

People then think maybe Republicans will do SOMETHING

They elect Republicans

They don't do anything

Rinse and repeat

Even if not limited to landlines, answering phone surveys at all is still major boomer energy.

The people who want progressive reforms and are disappointed by lack of democrat action are not turning and expecting Republicans to get them there, sorry.
