current situation except themselves.
Are they pushing the Ralph Nader bullshit "how tired they are of voting for the lesser of two evils".
If they cannot distinguish the differences between the two parties, they are an embarrassment to anyone with critical thinking skills.
The mindset that contributed to putting someone who tried to overthrow the government TWICE in the white house, have contributed in helping give us an extremist Supreme Court that will last at least a generation. They will have contributed in rolling back any progress the Democrats made through the years with climate change, Civil rights, Women's rights, worker's rights, healthcare, etc. etc. etc.
Let the 30 million of them who follow their prophet joe rogan enjoy the future they have set in motion.
What helped President Obama the most was the financial implosion setup by the republicans starting with regan, and culminating with bush, along with mccain choosing a complete idiot as his VP.
but the framing is entirely wrong. It wasn't just the young, but Latino's who split the vote, labor who split the vote, the protesters on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict which refused to vote Democratic, and women who didn't come out in the numbers anticipated.
Good luck undoing that damage that is and will be done in the next four years.
