    Yeah, they ran a Black woman and got fewer votes than the White guy.

    Almost like the Progressives stayed home.

      Yeah, it’s almost like progressives aren’t interested in identity politics, and stayed home when the supposedly-leftist party told them to shut up.

        Yeah, Progressives stayed home in 1968 because they couldn’t support Humphrey and we got Nixon.

        They couldn’t support Hilary and we got Trump.

        They couldn’t support Biden/Harris and we got Trump two.

        So much progress.

          Maybe when people think literally Hitler is better than you, you should take a step back and try to figure out what you’re doing wrong.

          Progressives are simultaneously not worth it for the democrats to represent, but also are 100% to blame when blue conservatives lose to red ones?
