    Hilary outraised Trump by 30% in 2016. She was doing far better in polling than Biden is doing rn, and didn’t have the albatross of a country to run hanging around her neck (in fact, Democrats had basically just saved us from complete economic collapse after Bush et al engineered the financial crisis), those were far better D into D headwinds.

    If money bought elections, Democrats wouldn’t lose as consistently as they do.

      She also didn’t have her literal rights over bodily autonomy taken away, nazis walking around like their opinions matter, and that shithead she ran against the head nazi and reason she lost those rights in the first place.

      1980s in reverse.

      Biden wins in a landslide, and the dems sweep it all.

      Vote.
